With an automatic gearbox or drive
selector, if the brake does not release
automatically, check that the front doors are
correctly closed.
When stationary with the engine running,
do not depress the accelerator pedal
unnecessarily. Risk of parking brake release.
Automatic application
With the vehicle stationary, the parking brake
is automatically applied when the engine is
switched off.
It is not applied automatically if the
engine stalls or enters STOP mode of Stop
& Start.
With automatic operation, it is also
possible to manually apply or release the
parking brake using the control lever.
Special cases
Immobilising the vehicle with the engine
running
To immobilise the vehicle with the engine running,
briefly pull the control lever.
Parking the vehicle with the brake
released
In very cold conditions (ice), applying the
parking brake is not recommended.
To immobilise the vehicle, engage a gear or
place the chocks against one of the wheels.
Immobilising the vehicle with the parking brake
released
►  Switch off the engine.
►  Switch on the ignition again, without starting
the engine.
►  Release the parking brake manually by
pushing the control lever while keeping your foot
on the brake pedal.
►  Switch off the ignition.
With an automatic gearbox or drive
selector, mode P is automatically selected
when the ignition is switched off. The wheels
are blocked.
For more information on Changing to free-
wheeling, refer to the corresponding section.
With an automatic gearbox or drive
selector, while mode N is selected,
opening the driver’s door triggers an audible
signal. It stops when the driver's door closes
again.
Deactivating automatic
operation
In some situations, for example when it is
extremely cold or when towing (e.g. caravan,
breakdown), it may be necessary to deactivate
automatic operation of the system.
►  Start the engine.
►  Use the control lever to apply the parking
brake, if it is released.
►  Take your foot fully off the brake pedal.
►  Hold the control lever pressed in the release
direction for between 10 and a maximum of 15
seconds.
►  Release the control lever.
►  Depress and hold the brake pedal.
►  Pull the control lever in the “Application”
direction for 2 seconds.
This indicator lamp on the instrument
panel comes on to confirm deactivation of
the automatic functions.
►  Release the control lever and the brake pedal.
From now on, the parking brake can only be
applied and released manually using the control
lever.
Repeat this procedure to reactivate automatic
operation (confirmed by the indicator lamp on the
instrument panel going off).
Emergency braking
In the event of a fault with the brake pedal or
in an exceptional situation (e.g. driver taken ill,
driver under instruction), a continuous pull on the
