Parking Brake
The vehicle is equipped with an
electric automatic parking brake, also
called EPB (Electric Parking Brake).
The EPB braking action on model
with "Base" and "Dual Cast" braking
system (equipped with rear floating
caliper) is ensured by a power actuator
directly working on the brake pad
inside each caliper of the rear brake
system.
The "Performance Dual Cast" braking
system is equipped with a dedicated
caliper which acts on each rear brake
disc.
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 lever.
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
lights up on the
tachometer display and the related
message is displayed on the instrument
cluster for 5 seconds (see “Instrument
Cluster” in section “Dashboard
Instruments and Controls”).
During engagement and
disengagement procedures, the
warning light
flashes until
the parking brake has reached its
maximum activation force and is
respectively fully released.
In the above-mentioned conditions,
the automatic engagement function
can be deactivated/activated by
selecting the menu item “Vehicle
settings” on the main menu (refer to
paragraph “Deactivating Automatic
Operation” in this chapter).
Manual Engagement/
Disengagement
The parking brake can also be
manually engaged or disengaged
when the engine is running or the
ignition switch is in the
RUN
position,
by pressing the brake pedal and
raising the lever located behind the
shift lever.
When the parking brake is applied, the
warning light
lights up on the
tachometer and the related message
will be displayed for 5 seconds on the
instrument cluster.
If you attempt to engage/disengage
the parking brake without having
pressed the brake pedal, a message
will be displayed, warning you to press
the brake pedal.
If the engine was turned off when
the automatic engagement device
was deactivated (see “Deactivating
Automatic Operation” in this chapter)
it is possible to shift the parking brake
simply by pulling the lever upward
within 3 minutes after turning off.
