be engaged when leaving the car.
"HOLD 'N' GO" FUNCTION
(where provided)
The car can be equipped with the "Hold
'N' Go" function, which automatically
engages the electric parking brake
when the car is stationary and the
ignition device is in the START position.
This allows the driver to keep the car
stationary without pressing the brake
pedal while stopping the engine.
With the "Hold 'N' Go" function activated
and the car stationary, pressing the
accelerator pedal automatically releases
the parking brake.
The “Hold 'N' Go” function can be
deactivated via the instrument panel
display settings. For more information,
refer to the “Display” chapter in the
“Knowing the instrument panel” section.
