Parking Brake
Hold the regular brake
pedal down with your right
foot and push down the
parking brake pedal with
your left foot to set the
parking brake. If the
ignition is on, the PARK
BRAKE indicator light
should come on. If it
doesn’t, you need to have
your vehicle serviced.
If the parking brake has not been fully released and you
try to drive with the parking brake on, the PARK
BRAKE indicator light comes on and stays on. See
“Parking Brake Indicator Light” in the Index for
more information.
When you move out of PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N),
if the engine is running, the parking brake should
release. If it doesn’t, you can manually release the
parking brake.
CAUTION:
Always shift to PARK (P) before pulling the
manual release lever. If your hand or arm is in
the way of the pedal you could be hurt. The pedal
springs back quickly. Keep your hand and arm
away when you use the manual release lever.
Be sure to turn off the ignition and put the vehicle in
PARK (P) before manually releasing the brake.
