Stopping the vehicle

Before switching off the engine, you can engage position P or N to place the gearbox in neutral. In both cases, apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle.

If the lever is not in position P , when the driver's door is opened or approximately 45 seconds after the ignition is switched off, a warning message appears in the screen.

Return the lever to position P; the message disappears.
