Parking brake
The concept
Your vehicle is equipped with an electrome‐
chanical parking brake that can be set and re‐
leased by using a button.
The parking brake is primarily used to prevent
the vehicle from rolling when it is parked.
When the vehicle is stationary, the parking brake
acts on the rear wheels via an electromechanical
mechanism. When the vehicle is rolling or being
driven, the parking brake acts on the disc brakes
of the front and rear wheels via the hydraulic
brake system.
Setting
Pull the button. The parking brake is set.
The indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster and the LED on the button light
up red. The parking brake is set.

To set the parking brake, the remote control
does not need to be in the ignition lock.
While driving
If exceptional circumstances should make it
necessary to engage the parking brake while the
vehicle is in motion, pull the button for an ex‐
tended period: the vehicle brakes forcefully
while the button is being pulled.
The indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up red, a sound is issued
and the brake lights light up.

When the vehicle is braked almost to a halt, ap‐
prox. 2 mph/3 km/h, the parking brake remains
set.
Releasing
Take the remote control with you
Take the remote control with you when
leaving the vehicle so that children, for example,
cannot start the engine or release the parking
brake.◀
The parking brake can only be released while the
ignition is switched on or the engine is running.
Manual transmission
Press the button of the parking brake. Depress
the brake and clutch pedals while doing so.
Sport automatic transmission
Press the parking brake button while the brake
is depressed or transmission position P is en‐
gaged.
Indicator lamps
The indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster goes out.
