If you forget to release your parking brake, a chime will
sound and a warning message will be displayed
when the parking brake is applied and the vehicle is
moving faster than 5 mph (8 km/h). See DIC Warnings
and Messages on page 4-48.
Notice: Driving with the parking brake on can
overheat the brake system and cause premature
wear or damage to brake system parts. Make sure
that the parking brake is fully released and the brake
warning light is off before driving.
