2.12
Emergency brake assistThis is an additional system to ABS
which helps reduce vehicle stopping
distances.
Operating principle
The system detects an emergency
braking situation. In this case, the brak-
ing assistance immediately develops
maximum power and may trigger ABS
regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is not released.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel-
eration.
Operating faultsWhen the system detects an operating
fault the message “BRAKING FAULT”
appears on the instrument panel along
with the
© warning light. Please
consult an authorised dealer.
DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (3/3)
Hill start assistance
This function assists the driver when
starting on hills. It prevents the vehicle
from rolling backwards, depending on
the slope, by automatically applying the
brakes when the driver lifts his/her foot
off the brake pedal to depress the ac-
celerator pedal.
System operation
It only operates when the gear lever is
in a position other than neutral and the
vehicle is completely stationary (brake
pedal depressed).
The system holds the vehicle for ap-
proximately 2 seconds. The brakes are
then gradually released (the vehicle will
move according to the slope).
The hill start assistance
system cannot completely
prevent the vehicle from
rolling backwards in all sit-
uations (extremely steep gradients,
etc.).
In all cases, the driver may depress
the brake pedal to prevent the ve-
hicle from rolling forwards or back-
wards.
The hill start assistance function
should not be used for prolonged
stops: use the brake pedal.
This function is not designed to im-
mobilise the vehicle permanently.
If necessary, use the brake pedal to
stop the vehicle.
The driver must remain particularly
vigilant when driving on slippery or
low-grip surfaces and/or on hills.
Risk of serious injury.

2.19
Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deacti-
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer stored.
The green
 and  indicator lights
on the instrument panel go out, con-
firming that the function is deactivated.
Recalling the cruising speed
If a speed has been stored, it can be re-
called by pressing button 5 (R), on con-
dition that you are driving faster than
approximately 20 mph (30 km/h) and
that you are sure that the driving condi-
tions are suitable (traffic, road surface
condition, weather conditions, etc.).
NB: if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
When the cruise control function is
put on standby, pressing switch 2
(+) reactivates the cruise control
function without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is set to standby if you:
– the brake pedal;
– move to neutral position;
– switch 4 (O).
In all three cases, the cruising speed is
stored.
Standby is confirmed when the green
 warning light goes out and the
“stored” message appears on the in-
strument panel.
CRUISE CONTROL, SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (4/4)
Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching it
off does not cause a rapid
reduction in speed: you
must brake by depressing the brake
pedal.

Level 3
It is normal for the level to drop as
the linings become worn, but it should
never drop below the “ MINI” warning
line.
If you wish to check the disc and drum
wear yourself, you should obtain the
document explaining the checking pro-
cedure from our network or from the
manufacturer’s website.
Topping up
After any operation on the hydraulic cir-
cuit, a specialist must replace the fluid.
Only use fluids approved by our
Technical Department (and taken from
a sealed container).
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Document for
your vehicle.
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
Brake fluid level
This should be checked frequently,
and immediately if you notice even the
slightest loss in braking efficiency.
The level should be read with the engine
switched off and on level ground.

TYRE INFLATION KIT (2/3)
Depending on the vehicle, in the event
of a puncture, please use the kit located
in the glovebox.
Before using this kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the handbrake, ask all
passengers to leave the vehicle and
keep them away from traffic.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.
With the engine running and the
parking brake applied,
– unroll the hose from the container;
– connect the compressor hose 3 to
the container’s inlet 8;
– depending on the vehicle, connect the container 8 to the compressor
from the container recess 7;
– unscrew the valve cap on the rel- evant wheel and screw on the con-
tainer’s inflation adapter 1;
– adapter 2 must be connected to the
vehicle accessories socket;
– press switch 4 to inflate the tyre to
the recommended pressure (please
refer to the information in the section
on “Tyre pressure”);

– after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop inflating and read the pressure (on
pressure gauge 5).
Note: while the container is empty-
ing (approximately 30 seconds), the
pressure gauge 5 will briefly indicate
a pressure of up to 6 bar. The pres-
sure will then drop.
– adjust the pressure: to increase it, continue inflation with the kit; to
reduce it, press button 6.
If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is
not reached after 15 minutes, repair
is not possible; do not drive the ve-
hicle but contact an approved dealer.
