Initialize the EPB System after Re-
connecting the Vehicle Battery
After the detachment and the
subsequent connection of the battery,
on the instrument cluster display the
warning light
will be illuminated.
To initialize the EPB system, lift,
release and lift again the lever located
under the driver lower side of the
dashboard.
Emergency Disengagement
In case of brake lock with complete
electrical system failure, is necessary
to act on the electric actuator to undo
the pressure on the pads of rear brake
calipers (see "Emergency Release of
the Parking Brake" chapter in section
"In an Emergency").
EPB Operation with
Overheated Brakes
Driving on mountain roads with steep
slopes or a sports use of the vehicle
could overheat the brake system
components. In these conditions,
parking brake must not be used since
the push of the power actuator might
not be sufficient to ensure vehicle
braking, especially on a slope.
Drive normally without braking to
allow the brakes to cool down a few
minutes before stopping. In this way,
the automatic or manual activation of
the parking brake will ensure vehicle
braking.
Parking
Before leaving the vehicle,
make sure
that the parking brake is fully applied
in automatic or manual and move
the transmission in P (Park) mode by
pressing the brake pedal and switching
OFF the vehicle.
WARNING!
•
Always check that the vehicle is
locked before leaving it.
•
Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle.
•
Do not park the vehicle on paper,
grass, dry leaves or other flammable
materials. They could catch fire if
they come into contact with hot
parts of the exhaust system.
•
Do not leave the engine running
while the vehicle is unattended.
CAUTION!
When you need to park the vehicle on
a steep slope, both with the engine on
and off, it is recommended not only to
engage the parking brake, but shifting
the transmission into P (Park) mode
before leaving the vehicle.
When parking on hill roads, it is
important to turn the front wheels
toward the curb on a downhill grade
and away from the curb on an uphill
grade.
In certain conditions, it is however
advisable to disengage the parking
brake manually and slightly apply the
service brake for starting off. This is
advisable when there are obstacles
