Wait for the gear selection process to
complete before setting the vehicle in

in order to obtain braking action. This could
result in drive wheel slip and reduced vehi-
cle control. Your vehicle’s ABS will not pre-
vent this type of loss of control.

If you hear a warning signal and the
message Release parking brake ap-
pears in the multifunction display when
driving off, you have forgotten to re-
lease the parking brake.
