Particular situations
In certain situations (e.g. start-
ing the engine), the parking brake
can automatically alter its force. This
is normal operation.
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 park-
ing brake by pulling
then releasing
control lever A
. The full release of
the parking brake is confi rmed by the
warning lamp in the control lever A
and the warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel going off and the display
of the message "Handbrake off".
If a parking brake fault occurs while
applied
or if the battery runs fl at, an
emergency release is always pos-
sible.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
In the event of a failure of the main ser-
vice brake or in an exceptional situation
(e.g. driver taken ill, under instruction,
etc) a continuous pull
on the control
lever
A
will stop the vehicle
.
The dynamic stability control (DSC)
provides stability during emergency
braking.
If there is a fault with the emergency
braking, one of the following messages
will be displayed:
- "Parking brake faulty".
- "Parking brake control faulty".
If a failure of the DSC system is
signalled by the illumination of
this warning lamp, then brak-
ing stability is not guaranteed.
In this event, stability must be
assured by the driver by repeating al-
ternate "pull release" actions on control
lever A
.
The emergency braking must
only be used in exceptional
circumstances.
