Fault
Failure mode of electrical parking
brake is indicated by control indicator
j
3
85.
In the event of a fault, to apply
electrical parking brake: pull and hold
the switch
m
for a few seconds. If
control indicator
m
illuminates,
electrical parking brake has been
applied successfully.
To release electrical parking brake:
push and hold the switch
m
for a few
seconds. If control indicator
m
extinguishes, electrical parking brake
has been released successfully.
If control indicator
m
flashes:
electrical parking brake is not fully
applied or released. When
m
is
continuously flashing, with ignition
switched on depress brake pedal,
release electrical parking brake and
retry applying.
If
m
continues to flash, do not drive
the vehicle. If necessary, place
wedge blocks or equivalent in front of
and behind wheels to prevent vehicle
movement. Seek the assistance of a
workshop to have the cause of the
fault remedied.
Brake assist
If the brake pedal is depressed
quickly and forcefully, maximum
brake force is automatically applied
(full braking).
Maintain steady pressure on the
brake pedal for as long as full braking
is required. Maximum brake force is
automatically reduced when the
brake pedal is released.
Hill start assist
The system helps prevent unintended
movement when driving away on
inclines.
When releasing the foot brake after
stopping on an incline, the brakes
remain on for a further 2 seconds. The
brakes release automatically as soon
as the vehicle begins to accelerate.
Ride control systems
Electronic Stability Control
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
improves driving stability when
necessary, regardless of the type of
road surface or tyre grip. It also
prevents the drive wheels from
spinning.
As soon as the vehicle starts to
swerve (understeer/oversteer),
engine output is reduced and the
wheels are braked individually. This
considerably improves the driving
stability of the vehicle on slippery road
surfaces.
ESC is operational as soon as control
indicators
b
and
t
extinguish in the
instrument cluster after switching on
the ignition.
When ESC is active
