instrument panel going off.
Emergency braking
The emergency braking should only be
used in an exceptional situation.
In the event of a failure of the main service
brake or in an exceptional situation (e.g. driver
taken ill, under instruction, etc.), a continuous
pull on the control lever will brake the vehicle.
Braking takes place while the control lever is
being pulled. It is interrupted if the control lever
is released.
The ABS and DSC systems provide stability of
the vehicle during emergency braking.
If the emergency braking malfunctions, the
message "Parking brake control faulty" will be
displayed in the instrument panel.
If the ABS and DSC systems malfunction,
signalled by the illumination of one or both
warning lamps in the instrument panel, then
stability of the vehicle is no longer guaranteed.
In this event, stability must be assured by the
driver by repeating alternate "pull-release"
actions on the control lever until the vehicle is
immobilised.

If you exceed the period of five seconds, the

the procedure again from the beginning.
Special aspects of automatic
mode
The gearbox selects the gear that offers
optimum per formance, taking account of the
ambient temperature, the profile of the road,
the load on the vehicle and the style of driving.
For maximum acceleration without touching
the selector, press the accelerator fully down
(kick-down). The gearbox changes down
automatically or holds the gear selected until
the maximum engine speed is reached.
When braking, the gearbox changes down
automatically to provide effective engine
braking.
The steering mounted controls allow the driver
to temporarily select a gear, if the road and
engine speed permit.
Special aspects of manual mode
The change from one gear to another takes
place only if the if the road speed and engine
speed permit.
If the engine speed is too high or too low, the
gear selected flashes for a few seconds, then
the gear actually engaged is displayed.
With N engaged, opening the driver's
door results in an audible signal.
Closing the driver's door stops the
signal.
