Driving
It is recommended that you do not
apply the parking brake in very cold
conditions (ice) and during towing
(breakdown, caravan...).
For this, with the ignition on, deactivate
the automatic functions and release the
parking brake manually:
Manual gearbox: engage first gear
or reverse.
Electronic gearbox: select
position A or R .
Automatic gearbox: select
position P or R .
The electric parking brake combines
2 operating modes:
- Automatic Application/Release
Application is automatic when the engine
stops, release is automatic on use of the
accelerator (this mode is activated by
default),
- Manual Application/Release
Manual application of the parking brake is
done by pulling control lever A.
Manual release is done by pulling then
releasing the control lever, while pressing
the brake pedal.
When the driver's door is opened, there is an
audible signal and a message is displayed if
the brake is not applied.
Programming the automatic
mode
Depending on the country of sale of the vehicle,
the automatic application when the engine is
switched off and the automatic release when
you press the accelerator can be deactivated.
You can contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop to have it activated.
In this case, programming is done via
the configuration menu.
Electric parking brake
If deactivated, the parking brake must
be applied and released manually.
If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel, the automatic
mode is deactivated.
Never leave the vehicle without
checking that the parking brake is on.
This warning lamp comes on
fixed.
