GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR

88

To prevent the vehicle from moving

accidentally, release the handbrake
with the foot brake pedal depressed.

IMPORTANT The handbrake

lever A is fitted with a safety device
which prevents the handbrake disen-
gaging when button B is pressed with
the lever pulled. Therefore, to release
the handbrake, not only press button
B, but also pull the lever A upwards
so that the safety device is released,
then lower the lever.

When the handbrake lever is en-

gaged, if you pull button B-fig. 108
forward and then you lower the lever,
the vehicle is still braked.

CRUISE CONTROL

(where fitted) fig. 109

GENERAL

This is an electronic device (CRUISE

CONTROL) which makes it possible
to maintain vehicle cruising speed con-
stant without using any of the tradi-
tional controls except for the steer-
ing wheel. Thus, the engine taxing on
road is reduced, especially during long
journeys, because the stored speed is
maintained automatically.

IMPORTANT The Cruise Control

can only be switched on when speed
exceeds 40 km/h in 4

th

or 5

th

gear.

Use the speed control

system only when the
traffic or road conditions

make it possible to maintain a
constant speed for quite a long
way safely.
