This vehicle has a PUSH
TO
RELEASE
parking
brake pedal. To set the
parking brake, hold the
regular brake pedal down
with your right
foot.
Push
down
the
parking brake
pedal with your left foot.
If the ignition is on, the brake system warning light will
turn on
and
a single chime will be heard. The parking
brake uses the brakes on the rear wheels.
To
release the parking brake, hold the regular brake
pedal down and push
the
parking brake pedal with
your
left foot. This
will
unlock the pedal. When you
lift
your
left foot, the park brake pedal will follow
it
to the
released position.
If
you try to drive approximately
40
feet
(12.2
m)
with
the parking brake on, the brake light stays on and a
chime sounds until you release the parking brake.
I
NOTICE:
Driving with the parking brake on can cause
your rear brakes to overheat.
You
may have
to
replace them, and you could also damage other
parts
of
your vehicle.
If
you are towing a trailer and are parking
on
any hill,
see “Towing a Trailer” in the Index. That section shows
what to do first to keep
the
trailer from moving.
