For safety reasons, automatic release
is deactivated when the driver’s door is
open or not shut properly and the engine
is running (in order to prevent the vehi-
cle from moving without the driver). The
“Release parking brake manually” mes-
sage appears on the instrument panel
when the driver depresses the accel-
erator.
Never leave your vehicle
without moving the selec-
tor lever to position P or N.
This is because when the
vehicle is stationary with the engine
running and a gear engaged, the
vehicle may begin to move if you
accelerate.
There is a risk of accidents.
If no lights or sounds are ap-
parent, this indicates a fault
in the instrument panel. This
indicates that it is essential
to stop immediately (as soon as traf-
fic conditions allow). Ensure that the
vehicle is correctly immobilised and
contact an approved dealer.
