Emergency braking function
Only use the emergency brake function if you
are unable to stop the vehicle with the foot
brake
.

button in
this position to

WARNING
The improper use of the electronic parking
brake can cause accidents and serious in-
jury.
●
Never use the electronic parking brake to
stop the vehicle, unless it is an emergency.
Braking distances can be considerably lon-
ger, since, under certain circumstances,
only the rear wheels brake. Always use the
foot brake.
●
Never accelerate from the engine when a
gear range or a gear is engaged and the
engine is running. The vehicle could move,
even if the electronic parking brake is acti-
vated.
CAUTION
To prevent the vehicle from unintentionally
moving when parking it, first apply the
electronic parking brake and then remove
your foot from the brake pedal.
Note
●
In vehicles with a manual gearbox, re-
leasing the clutch and accelerating at the
same time automatically disconnects the
electronic parking brake.
●
If the vehicle battery is flat, it will not be
possible to disconnect the electronic park-
ing brake. Use the jump-start
›››
.
●
When the electronic parking brake is ap-
plied or released, noises may be heard.
●
The system performs automatic and au-
dible tests sporadically in the parked vehi-
cle if some time elapses without the elec-
tronic parking brake being used.
Parking
The electronic parking brake should always
be applied when the vehicle is parked.
Always note the following points when park-
ing the vehicle:
–
Use the brake pedal to stop the vehicle.
–
Apply the electronic parking brake.
–
Put it in 1st gear.
–
Switch the engine off and remove the key
from the ignition. Turn the steering wheel
slightly to engage the steering lock.
–
Never leave a vehicle key in the vehicle.
Additional notes on parking the vehicle on
gradients:
Turn the steering wheel so that the vehicle
rolls against the kerb if it started to roll.
●
If the vehicle is parked facing
downhill
, turn
the front wheels so that they point
towards
the kerb
.
●
If the vehicle is parked facing
uphill
, turn
the front wheels so that they point
away from
the kerb
.
●
Secure the vehicle as usual by applying the
electronic parking brake firmly and putting it
in 1st gear.
WARNING
●
Take measures to reduce the risk of injury
when you leave your vehicle unattended.
●
Never park where the hot exhaust system
could ignite inflammable materials, such as
dry grass, low bushes, spilt fuel etc.
●
Never allow vehicle occupants to remain
in the vehicle when it is locked. They would
be unable to open the vehicle from the in-
side, and could become trapped in the ve-
hicle in an emergency. In the event of an
emergency, locked doors will delay assis-
tance to vehicle occupants.
