Driving and Driver Assistance Systems
During the acceleration phase the
“Launch Control” symbol appears at the
left of the digital speedometer in the
instrument cluster display.
Parking Brake
The vehicle is equipped with an electric
automatic parking brake, also called EPB
(Electric Parking Brake). The EPB braking
action is ensured by a power actuator
directly working on the brake pad inside
each caliper of the rear brake system.
It can be automatically engaged when
the engine is turned off and disengaged
with engine running, driver seatbelt
latched and driver door closed, while
pressing the brake pedal and operating
the shift buttons only if the "Auto Park
Brake" function is activated on the
MIA screen (see paragraph "Functions
of Settings Menu on MIA" in section
"Dashboard Instrument and Controls").
Furthermore, EPB can be automatically
engaged above a slope threshold with
transmission in parking to avoid damage
to the vehicle. EPB can be disengaged
before to turn off the vehicle.
When the parking brake is applied, the
warning light (United States
market) or (Canadian market) lights
up on the instrument cluster display
and the related message is displayed
on the instrument cluster for 5 seconds
(see “Warning and Indicators Lights” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
United States Market
Canadian Market
In the above-mentioned condition, the
automatic engagement function can be
deactivated/activated by selecting the
"Auto Park Brake" (refer to "Functions
of Settings Menu on MIA" in section
"Dashboard Instruments and Controls").
Manual Engagement/
Disengagement
The parking brake can also be manually
engaged when the engine is not running
