PARKING BRAKE
Checking the parking brake
Type A
Check whether the stroke is within
specification when the parking brake
pedal is depressed with 30 kg (66 lb,
294 N) of force. Also, the parking brake
alone should securely hold the vehicle
on a fairly steep grade. If the stroke is
more or less than specified, we recom‐
mend that the system be serviced by
an authorized Kia dealer.
Stroke: 6~7 notch
Type B
Check the stroke of the parking brake
by counting the number of clicks’’
heard while fully applying it from the
released position. Also, the parking
brake alone should securely hold the
vehicle on a fairly steep grade. If the
stroke is more or less than specified,
we recommend that the system be
serviced by an authorized Kia dealer.
Stroke: 5 clicks’’ at a force of 20 kg
(44 lbs, 196 N).
