Frein à main
Handbrake

To release

Pull lever 2 slightly upwards, press button 1 and return the lever fully to the floor.

! While driving, make sure the handbrake is fully released (red indicator off), risk of overheating or even damage.

To apply

Pull up. Make sure the vehicle is properly immobilised.

! When stopped, depending on the gradient and/or vehicle load, it may be necessary to add at least two extra notches to the handbrake and engage a gear (1st or reverse).

Variable assist steering

Variable assist steering features an electronically controlled system that adjusts the level of assistance according to vehicle speed.

The steering is lighter when maneuvering or parking (for comfort), while the effort increases progressively with speed (for better safety at high speed).

! Never switch off the engine when going downhill or, in general, while driving (power assistance will be lost).
