It is therefore essential to
immobilise the vehicle by
engaging first gear (manual
gearbox) or position P (au -
tomatic gearbox). If the slope re -
quires it, chock the vehicle.
Versions with an automatic
gearbox
For safety reasons, automatic release
is deactivated when the driver’s door
is open or not shut properly and the
engine is running (in order to prevent
the vehicle from moving without the
driver). The “ Release parking brake
manually ” message appears on the
instrument panel when the driver de -
presses the accelerator.
Never leave your vehicle
without moving the selec -
tor lever to position P or N.
This is because when the
vehicle is stationary with the engine
running and a gear engaged, the
vehicle may begin to move if you
accelerate.
There is a risk of accidents.If no lights or sounds are ap-
parent, this indicates a fault
in the instrument panel. This
indicates that it is essential
to stop immediately (as soon as traf-
fic conditions allow). Ensure that the
vehicle is correctly immobilised and
contact an approved Dealer.
