If exceptional circumstances

make it necessary to engage the

parking brake while the vehicle is in

motion, do not pull it with excessive

pressure. Keep your thumb pressed

against the release button while care-

fully pulling the lever up.

Excessive pressure can lead to over-

braking and loss of traction – fishtailing

– at the rear axle. The brake lamps do

not come on when the parking brake is

engaged.

Vehicles with manual transmission:

Always engage the parking brake when

parking on slopes and inclined sur-

faces. Placing the lever in gear may not

provide adequate resistance to rolling.

Vehicles with automatic transmission:

Place the selector lever in Park.<

To avoid corrosion and one-sided

braking, apply the parking brake

lightly from time to time when coasting

to a standstill – at a traffic signal, for

example – provided that it is safe to do

so.<

Manual transmission

Do not hold the vehicle in place on

slopes by slipping or "riding" the

clutch. Use the parking brake instead.

Riding the clutch leads to severe and

premature clutch wear.<

Reverse

Select only when the vehicle is station-

ary. Press the shift lever to the left to

overcome the slight resistance.

As you do this, the backup lamps will

light up automatically when the ignition

key is in position 2.
