When stationary, and de-
pending on the slope and/or
vehicle load, it may be nec-
essary to pull up the hand-
brake at least two extra notches and
engage a gear (1
st or reverse gear)
for vehicles with a manual gearbox
or position P for vehicles with an au-
tomatic gearbox.
An impact to the under-
side of the vehicle while
manoeuvring (e.g. strik-
ing a post, raised kerb or
other street furniture) may result in
damage to the vehicle (e.g. defor-
mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap-
proved Dealer.
Make sure that the hand-
brake is properly released
when driving (red indicator
light off), otherwise over-
heating, or even damage, may
occur.

2.22
ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE (2/3)
For vehicles fitted with the Stop and
Start function, with the engine on
standby, the electronic parking brake is
automatically activated if the driver un-
fastens their seat belt or opens the driv-
er's door or gets out of their seat.Brief stop
To apply the electronic parking brake
manually (when stopping at a red light,
or stopping when the engine is running,
etc.): pull and release the switch 3. The
brake is released as soon as the vehi-
cle is started up again.
Special cases
To park on a slope or while towing a
trailer, for example, pull switch 3 for
a few seconds to gain the maximum
braking.
To park the vehicle without applying the
electronic parking brake (if there is a
risk of freezing, for example):
– with the engine running, while si- multaneously depressing the brake
pedal and the switch 3, stop the
engine (do not put it on standby for
vehicles fitted with Stop and Start);
– in gear, release the brake pedal and switch 3.
Manual operationYou can control the electronic parking
brake manually.
Applying the electronic parking
brake
Pull switch 3. Warning light 4 and warn-
ing light
} on the instrument panel
light up.
Releasing the electronic parking
brake
With the ignition on, depress the brake
pedal then press switch 3: indicator
lights 4 and
} go out.
Special feature related to
the Stop and Start function:
if the driver's seat is unfas-
tened before the engine
goes into standby due to the Stop
and Start function, make sure that
the parking brake is applied: the
} indicator light on the instru-
ment panel confirms this. Risk of
loss of immobilisation.

2.23
ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE (3/3)Operating faults
– If there is a fault, the © warning
light illuminates on the instrument
panel accompanied by the “Check
parking brake” message and, in
some cases, the
} warning
light.
Please contact an authorised dealer
as soon as possible.
– If there is an assisted parking brake fault, the warning light
® comes
on, along with the message “Braking
system fault”, a beep and, in some
cases, the warning light
}.
This means that you must stop as
soon as traffic conditions allow.
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.
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.
Never leave your vehicle
without moving the selec-
tor lever to position P and
switching off the engine.
This is because when the vehicle is
stationary with the engine running
and a gear engaged, the vehicle
may begin to move.
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.
In the event of message
“Electric failure DANGER”
or “Check battery”, manu-
ally activate the electronic
parking brake by pulling switch 3 (or
position the gear lever in P for au-
tomatic gearboxes) before stopping
the engine.
Risk of loss of immobilisation of
the vehicle.
Contact an authorised dealer.

2.38
DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (4/5)
Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer-
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig-
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel-
eration. Braking anticipation
Depending on the vehicle, when you
rapidly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates the braking ma-
noeuvre in order to reduce stopping
distances.
Special cases
When using the cruise control:
– if you use the accelerator, when you
release it, the system may be trig-
gered;
– if you do not use the accelerator, the system will not be triggered.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat-
ing fault the message “Check brak-
ing system” appears on the instrument
panel along with the
© warning
light.
Consult an approved dealer.

2.44
ACTIVE EMERGENCY BRAKING (5/7)
Conditions for non-activation
of the system
The system cannot be activated:
– when the gear lever is in neutral;
– when the parking brake is activated;
– while cornering.
As a general rule, if the driver shows
signs of attention (action on the steering
wheel, pedals etc.), the system delays
its operation or does not activate.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault, the
\b warning light lights up
on the instrument panel, with the mes-
sage “Active braking disconnected”.
Consult an approved dealer
Temporarily not available
When the system detects a tempo-
rary unavailability, the
\b warning
light lights up on the instrument panel
accompanied by the message “Active
braking: sensor blind” or, depending on
the vehicle, “Radar-camera: no visibil-
ity”.
The possible causes are:
– the system is temporarily blinded (glare from the sun, dipped beam
headlights, bad weather conditions
etc.). The system will be operational
again when visibility conditions are
better;
– the system is temporarily disrupted (for example: windscreen obscured
by dirt, ice, snow etc.). In this case,
park the vehicle and switch off the
engine. Clean the windscreen. When
you next start the engine, the warn-
ing light and the message go out;
– if this is not the case, this may arise from another cause; contact an
Approved Dealer.

System servicing/repairs
– In the event of an impact, the camera alignment may be changed, and its \
operation may consequently be affected. Deactivate the function, then consult an authorised dealer.
– Any work in the area where the camera is located (repairs, replacements\
, windscreen modifications etc.) must be carried out by a qualified professional.
Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.
In the event of system disturbance
Some conditions can disturb or damage the operation of the system, such \
as:
– windscreen obscured (by dirt, ice, snow, condensation etc.);
– a complex environment (tunnel etc.);
– poor weather conditions (snow, hail, black ice etc.);
– poor visibility (night, fog etc.);
– road markings which are worn, lacking in contrast or very widely spaced \
from one another (lines partially erased etc);
– being dazzled (glaring sun, lights of vehicles travelling in the opposi\
te direction etc.);
– the road is narrow, winding or undulating (tight bends etc.);
– closely following a vehicle travelling in the same lane.

Operation
When the function is activated, the cor-
rection indicators 4 for the left and right
lines are displayed in grey on the instru-
ment panel.
The function is set to react if:
– speed is between about 43.4 mph (70 km/h) and 99.2 mph (160 km/h);
and
– the correction indicators 4 are green.
The function reacts if the vehicle ap-
proaches or crosses a line without ac-
tivation of the indicator lights. In these
cases:
– the function triggers corrective action on the vehicle’s steering system and
trajectory;
– the indicator 4 on the same side as
the crossed side line turns orange on
the instrument panel.
Note: on bends, the function allows for
slightly cutting the bend.
The function is deactivated by de-
fault every time the engine is started.
You can retake control of the ve-
hicle at any time by operating the
steering wheel.
When Lane Keeping Assist is activated,
the “Lane Departure Warning” function
is automatically activated (please refer
to the information on “Lane Departure
Warning” in Section 2).

2.90
ASSISTED PARKING (2/4)
Choice of manoeuvre
The system can perform four types of
manoeuvres:
– parallel parking;
– perpendicular parking;
– angle parking;
– moving out of a parallel parking space.
From the multifunction screen, select
the manoeuvre to be performed.
Note: when starting the vehicle, or after
having successfully completed parallel
parking using the system, the default
manoeuvre proposed by the system is
assistance in exiting a parallel parking
space. In other cases, the default ma-
noeuvre can be set from the multifunc-
tion screen.
Operation
Parking
As long as the vehicle speed is less
than 20 mph (30 km/h), the system
looks for available parking spaces on
both sides of the vehicle.
Once a space has been found, it is dis-
played on the multifunction screen, in-
dicated by a small letter “P”. So that
the vehicle can detect a space, drive
slowly, with the indicators activated on
the same side as the space, until the
message “Stop” is displayed, along
with a beep.
The space is then indicated on the mul-
tifunction screen by a capital “P”.
– Stop the vehicle;
– select reverse gear.
The
 indicator light lights up
on the instrument panel and a beep
sounds;
– release the steering wheel;
– follow the system instructions pro- vided on the multifunction screen. Your speed should not exceed around 4
mph (7 km/h).
Once the warning light
 on the
instrument panel goes off and a beep
sounds, the manoeuvre has been com-
pleted.
