Particular situations
In certain situations (e.g. star-
ting the engine), the parking brake
can automatically alter its force. This
is normal operation.
Emergency braking
In the event of a failure of the braking by
means of the brake pedal or in an ex-
ceptional situation (e.g. driver taken ill,
under instruction, etc) a continuous pull
on control A will stop the vehicle.
The electronic stability programme
(ESP) provides stability during emer-
gency braking.
If the emergency braking malfunctions,
one of the following messages will be
displayed:
- "Parking brake faulty".
- "Parking brake control faulty".
To advance your vehicle a few cen-
timetres without starting the engine,
but with the ignition on, press on the
brake pedal and release the parking
brake
by pulling then releasing con-
trol A . The full release of the parking

of warning lamp on control A and of
the warning lamp on the instrument
panel and the displaying of the mes-
sage "Parking brake released".
If the parking brake malfunctions
while applied or if the battery runs
fl a t , a n e m e r g e n c y r e l e a s e i a a l w a y s
possible. If a failure of the ESP system
is signalled by the lighting of
this warning lamp, then brak-
ing stability is not guaranteed.
In this event, stability must be
assured by the driver by repeating alter-
nate "pull release" actions on control A .
The emergency braking must
only be used in exceptional
circumstances.

Emergency unlocking
For safety reasons, after this
manoeuvre it is essential to
contact a PEUGEOT dealer
urgently.
Following an emergency unlocking,
immobilisation of the vehicle is no
longer guaranteed once the manual
emergency unlocking has been de-
ployed and the manual control does
not allow the re-application of your
parking brake.
Take no action, either on control A , or
stopping starting the engine while the
unlocking device is engaged.
Take care not to allow moisture or
dust in the proximity of the plug.
Immobilise the vehicle, with the en-
g i n e r u n n i n g , b y e n g a g i n g fi r s t g e a r
(manual gearbox), position P (auto-
matic gearbox) or M or R (6-speed
electronic gearbox).
Switch off the engine but leave the
ignition on. If it is impossible to im-
mobilise the vehicle, do not action
the control and urgently contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Fetch the two vehicle blocks and
the unlocking device, located under
the boot carpet (see "Changing a

store it with the blocks in the tool-
box.
- The operation of the parking brake reinitialises when the igni-
tion is switched off then on again.
If the reinitialisation of the parking
brake proves impossible, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
