Multi-collision braking
Multi-collision braking reduces the risk
ofanadditionalcollisionafteranacci
dentbytemporarilybringingyourvehi
cle to a standstill.
Operating principle
Whentheairbagsystemdetectsacol
lision, the pretensioners or airbags are
triggered 🡺60 and the "Multi-collision
braking"functionactivatestheElec
tronic Stability Program (ESC) to brake
the vehicle.
Multi-collision braking is deactivated
during operation if:
– the driver presses the accelerator
pedal firmly;
and/or
– the braking force generated by the
driver pressing the brake pedal is
greater than the force produced by the
automatic braking triggered by the
function.
Note: multi-collision braking requires
the proper functioning of your vehicle's
braking system.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault,themessage"CheckPostcolli
sion" and the warning light
appears on the instrument panel.
Inthiscase,thefunctionisdeactivat
ed. Consult an approved dealer.
Regenerative braking system
Whenbraking,theregenerativebrak
ingsystemcanconverttheenergypro
duced by the vehicle deceleration into
electric energy.
This will recharge the traction battery
and extend the vehicle range.

Hill start assistance
Dependingonthegradientofthein
cline, this system assists the driver
when starting on a hill. It prevents the
vehiclefromrollingbackwardsbyauto
matically applying the brakes when the
driver lifts his/her foot off the brake
pedal to depress the accelerator pedal.
System operation
It only operates when the gear lever is
in a position other than neutral (other
than N or Pforautomatictransmis
sions) and the vehicle is completely
stationary (brake pedal depressed).
Thesystemholdsthevehicleforap
proximately 2 seconds. The brakes
arethengraduallyreleased(thevehi
cle will move according to the slope).
