ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE
The electric parking brake (EPB) replaces
the conventional parking brake. It is
operated by a switch located in the center
console.
WARNINGS
Always apply the EPB before leaving
the vehicle.
Vehicles with manual transmission
should always be left in first or
reverse gear.
Vehicles with automatic
transmission should always be left
with the selector lever in position P.
Note: Under certain conditions for example
on a steep hill, when the vehicle has been
parked with the EPB applied, the EPB
performs an automatic re-clamp function.
This will occur approximately three minutes
after the EPB has been applied.
Note: You may notice various noises when
the EPB is applied and released. This is
normal and no cause for concern.
Parking on a hill
If you have to park facing uphill, select first
gear and turn the front wheels away from
the curb. If you have to park facing
downhill, select reverse gear and turn the
front wheels towards the curb.
Applying the EPB
Pull up the switch once to apply the EPB.
The brake system warning lamp
illuminates to confirm that the EPB is now
applied.
Note: The brake system warning lamp will
remain illuminated for a short period if you
turn the ignition to position 0 or remove the
key.
Automatic application of the EPB
WARNING
The EPB will not automatically apply
on vehicles with a keyless start or
keyless entry system. You must apply
the EPB using the EPB switch.
When you turn the ignition off, the cluster
will remain on for several minutes.
The EPB will automatically apply when
you remove the key from the ignition during
this period.
