DYNAMIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
In the event of a failure of the vehicle’s main braking system
or in an ex
-
ceptional situation (e.g. driver taken ill, under instruction,
etc) a continuous
pull on control A will stop the vehicle.
The electronic stability programme (ESP) provides stability during dynami
c
emergency braking.
If the dynamic emergency braking malfunctions, one of the follo
wing mes
-
sages will be displayed on the instrument panel screen :
• « Parking brake faulty ».
• « Parking brake control faulty ».
The dynamic emergency braking must only be used in e
xceptional circumstances.
If a failure of the ESP system is signalled by the lighting o
f this warning lamp, then braking stability is not
guaranteed. In this event, stability must be assured by the dri
ver by repeating alternate « pull-release »
actions on control A.
