Transmission
138

P should be selected before switching off the
engine. However, it is possible to switch the
engine off with R, D or S selected - the selector
will automatica lly select P, while retracting into
the centre console.
Note: If the engine is switched off with N
selected, the system will wait for 10 minutes
before selecting P. This procedure is to allow
the vehicle to be conveyed through a car wash
only and should not be used for vehicle
recovery purposes.
To prevent the transmission from
automatically selecting P (e.g. for vehicle
recovery purposes), it is necessary to activate
the Emergency Park Release.
See TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE
(page 254).
Selector positions
P - Park: Use when parked. In this position the
transmission is locked, do not attempt to select
P if the vehicle is moving.
Note: P will be selected automatically when the
engine is switched off.
R - Reverse: Do not select if the vehicle is
moving forward.
N - Neutral: Disconnects drive to the wheels.
Use the parking brake when stopping
temporarily with N selected.
D - Drive: Gear changing is automatic for all six
forward gears. The shift points are determined
by accelerator pedal pos ition and road speed,
to provide the best ba lance of performance,
refinement and fuel economy, for the large
majority of driving conditions.
S - Sport: Gear changing is automatic for all six
forward gears, with modified gear shift points
to maximise the ve hicle response in
demanding driving condi tions. This mode is
not suitable for town or highway cruising. Note:
Both D and S positions also offer
additional features, wh ich are listed under
Automatic mode and Sport mode , later in this
section.
Stationary vehicle
When the vehicle is stationary, the selector
may be left in D or S, unless the vehicle is to be
parked. When stopping fo r extended periods,
either select P or apply the parking brake and
select N.
Selector interlock
The transmission is equippe d with an interlock,
to prevent inadvertent selection of a drive gear
(D , S or R) from the P or N positions. To
release the interlock to select a drive gear,
press the brake pedal while making the
selection.
Ensure the required driv ing range has selected
prior to releasing the brake pedal. The range
indicator ( R, D or S) on the selector and
message centre disp lays, will illuminate
continuously to confirm selection.
Note: If the brake pedal is released too early
during selector rotation from P or N to a driving
range ( R, D or S), then the selected range will
not be engaged. The selected range will flash
on the selector and message centre displays.
To obtain the selected range, press the brake
pedal, select P or N and reselect the required
range, ensuring the brake pedal is depressed.
If N is selected for less than 2 seconds (e.g.
when moving the selector between R and D),
the interlock will not ac tivate and the brake
pedal will not need to be pressed.
Note: The interlock is deactivated when the
vehicle is travelling at more than 5 km/h
(3 mph).

Brakes

Emergency Brake Assist (EBA)
The EBA system measures the rate at which the
brake pressure increases. If the system detects
an emergency braking situation, EBA
automatically init iates full braking effect. This
can reduce stopping dist ances in critical
situations.
EBA stops operating as soon as the brake pedal
is released.
EBA is part of the Dynamic Stability
Control (DSC) system and a fault
with the EBA system is indicated by
the amber DSC warning indicator illuminating
and DSC NOT AVAILABLE (with amber
backlight) displaying in the message centre.
Seek qualified assistan ce as soon as possible.
Brake vacuum assist
(V6 petrol models only)
When the engine is cold and/or engine vacuum
is low, Brake vacuum assist provides additional
brake pedal assistance. When the function is
operating, a pulsation ma y be felt through the
brake pedal - this is not a cause for concern.
A fault is indicate d by the message BRAKE
ASSIST FAULT (with amber backlight)
appearing in the message centre. Increased
brake pedal effort may be required to slow the
vehicle when the engine is cold and/or engine
vacuum is low. Seek qualified assistance.
ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE (EPB)
The switch which operate s the parking brake is
mounted on the centre c onsole to the rear of
the gear selector.
To engage the parking brake (1): Pull the
parking brake switch up wards and release. The
switch will return to the neutral position. The
Parking brake warning and Brake fluid low
warning indicator on the instrument panel will
illuminate.
The Drive Away Release feature allows the
parking brake to release automatically as the
vehicle is driven away.
To disengage the parking brake (2): With the
ignition system on or with the engine running,
apply the foot brake and press the parking
brake switch down.
If the parking brake is a pplied while the vehicle
is stationary and D or R is selected, applying
the throttle will auto matically release the
parking brake.
The parking brake is also automatically
released when the gear selector is moved from
the P position.
WARNING
The EBA system is an additional
safety system; it is not intended to
relieve the driver of his or her
responsibility for exercising due care and
attention when driving.12

Parking aid
148

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Note: Once the system has been activated by
selecting reverse or using the switch, the front
and rear sensors are active when the gear
selector is in neutral. Therefore, if an obstacle
is detected an audible warning tone will sound.
The parking aid is automatically in standby
when the ignition is on and provides the driver
with information on most obstructions, and
their distance from the vehicle, when
manoeuvring. This is ac hieved by using four
ultrasonic sensors on each bumper.
When objects are detected the Park aid will
emit a warning tone which increases in
frequency and then becomes constant, as the
vehicle gets closer to the object.
USING THE PARKING AID
Touch-screen
To set the volume of the parking aid warning
tones:
• Select Vehicle from the touch-screen
Home menu, then select Veh. settings.
• Select Parking , then select Vol. presets.
Touch the Parking aid + or - button to increase
or decrease the warning tone volume.
Note: This adjusts both front and rear speaker
volume.
WARNINGS
It remains the driver’s responsibility
to be vigilant when reversing. Small
children or animals may not be
detected by the system.
It remains the driver’s responsibility
to detect obstacles and estimate the
vehicle’s distance from them. Some
overhanging objects , barriers, thin
obstructions or painted surfaces which could
possibly cause damage to the vehicle may not
be detected by the system. Always be vigilant
when reversing.
CAUTIONS
Objects moving away from the vehicle
will be reported. Howe ver, whilst driving
away, object warning may be temporarily
reported due to ground reflection.
Systems using the same frequency
band as the front parking sensors, may
cause irregular tones to be emitted.
