PARKING BRAKE
Applying the parking brake
With the vehicle stationary, pull the lever
(arrowed) and release it to apply the parking
brake.
The indicator light on the instrument
cluster will illuminate.
Note: If the lever is operated while the
vehicle is travelling, the park brake will be
fully applied. The stop lamps will not
illuminate. This function works even when
the vehicle is shut-off.
Releasing the parking brake
With your foot on the brake pedal, pull the
lever to release the parking brake. The
indicator light on the instrument cluster will
turn off.
Error messages
WARNING: If an error is detected by
the parking brake, never rely on the
parking brake to hold the vehicle on a slope.
If an error is detected by the parking brake
system, both the brake system and parking
brake warning lights on the instrument
cluster will flash and a message will be
displayed in the instrument cluster.
Emergency use
CAUTION: Driving the vehicle with the
parking brake applied, or repeated use
of the parking brake to slow the vehicle, may
cause serious damage to the brake system.
In an emergency, with the vehicle travelling
more than 2mph (3km/h), pulling and
holding the parking brake lever gives a
gradual reduction in speed.
Note: If the vehicle is moving and the
parking brake is applied, the system will
automatically release the parking brake
after 10 seconds to prevent damage to the
system and the message “PARK BRAKE
CANNOT APPLY” is displayed.
The parking brake must be reapplied to
continue slowing the vehicle.
