the vehicle.
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver’s side, only
use mats suitable for the
vehicle, attached with the
pre-fitted components, and check
the fitting regularly. Do not lay one

Parking the vehicle
When the vehicle is at a standstill,
place the lever in position P: the drive
wheels are mechanically locked by the
transmission.
Apply the handbrake.
GEAR CONTROL (2/2)/HANDBRAKE
Operating fault
When setting off, if the lever is locked
in position P, even though you are de-
pressing the brake pedal and pressing
the unlocking button 2, the lever can still
be released manually. To do this, unclip
the cover 4 at the base of the lever.
Simultaneously press at the location 7
and the unlocking button 2 on the lever.
In the event of an impact to
the underside of the vehicle
(e.g.: striking a post, raised
kerb or other street furni-
ture), this may result in damage to
the vehicle (e.g.: twisted axle), the
electrical circuit or the traction bat-
tery.
Do not touch the circuit elements or
any fluids or liquids.
To prevent any risk of accident,
have your vehicle checked by an
authorised dealer.
Risk of serious injury or electric
shock and risk to life.
Handbrake
To release:
Pull the lever 6 up slightly, press
button 5 and then lower the lever to the
floor.
To apply:
Pull lever 6 upwards and make sure the
vehicle is immobilised.
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 position P.
Make sure that the hand-
brake is properly released
when driving (red indicator
light off), otherwise over-
heating may occur.

Electronic stability program
ESC with understeer control
and traction control
Electronic stability control ESC
This system helps you to keep control
of the vehicle in critical driving condi-
tions (avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip
on a bend, etc.).
Operating principle
A sensor in the steering wheel detects
the direction selected by the driver.
Other sensors throughout the vehicle
measure the actual direction.
The system compares driver input to
the actual trajectory of the vehicle and
corrects the trajectory if necessary by
controlling the braking of certain wheels
and/or engine power. In the event that
the system is engaged, indicator light
 flashes on the instrument panel.Understeer control
This system optimises the action of the
ESC in the case of pronounced un-
dersteer (loss of front axle road hol-
ding).
Traction control
This system helps to limit wheelspin of
the drive wheels and to control the vehi-
cle when pulling away accelerating or
decelerating.
Operating principle
Using the wheel sensors, the system
measures and compares the speed of
the drive wheels at all times and slows
down their over-rotation. If a wheel is
starting to slip, the system brakes au-
tomatically until the drive supplied be-
comes compatible with the level of grip
under the wheel again.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat-
ing fault the message “Check ESC” and
warning light
© appear on the in-
strument panel. In this case, the ESC
and traction control system are deacti-
vated.
Consult an approved dealer.
DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES/AIDS (2/5)

2.18
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
These may light up in the event of rapid
deceleration.
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 trigge-
red;
– if you do not use the accelerator, the system will not be triggered.
Operating faults
When the system detects an opera-
ting fault the message “Check braking
system” appears on the instrument
panel along with the
© warning
light.
Consult an approved dealer.
DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES/AIDS (3/5)

2.20
Regenerative braking system
When braking, the regenerative braking
system can convert the energy pro-
duced by the vehicle deceleration into
electric energy.
This will recharge the 400V traction bat-
tery and gain greater vehicle range.Operating faults
– © lights up on the instrument
panel, alongside the message
“Check braking system”: braking as-
sistance is available at all times.
Under these conditions, the feel of
applying the brake pedal may be dif-
ferent.
You are recommended to apply
strong continuous pressure to the
pedal.
Please see an authorised dealer.
–
û lights up on the instrument
panel, alongside the message
“Braking system fault”: this indi-
cates a fault in the braking system.
Please call an authorised dealer.
DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES/AIDS (5/5)
The û warning light
requires you to stop imme-
diately, for your own safety,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
Switch off the engine and do not res-
tart it. Contact an Authorised Dealer.

2.26
CRUISE CONTROL (3/4)
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.
Adjusting the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be changed by
pressing the following repeatedly:
– switch 2 (+) to increase the speed,
– switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed.
Exceeding the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be exceeded
at any time by depressing the accelera-
tor pedal. While it is being exceeded,
the cruising speed flashes on the in-
strument panel.
Then, release the accelerator: after a
few seconds, the vehicle will automati-
cally return to its set cruising speed.
Cruising speed cannot be
maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
cruising speed: the stored speed will
flash on the instrument panel informa-
tion display to inform you of this situ-
ation.
2354
Putting the function on
standby
The function is set to standby if you:
– use the switch 4 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– move to neutral position;
– ECO mode switch.
In all four cases, the cruising speed
remains stored and the message
“Memorised” appears on the instrument
panel.
Standby is confirmed when the warn-
ing light
Ï on the green back-
ground goes out and the warning light
 comes on.
The cruise control switches to
standby each time the ECO
mode is activated or deactivated.
Please refer to the information on
“Ecodriving” in Section 2.
