To release AUTOHOLD and start
driving the vehicle
If you do any of the following actions to
resume driving the vehicle, the brakes
release automatically and the
AUTOHOLD active indicator light turns
off.
•
(Manual transaxle vehicle)
You start to release the clutch pedal with
the shift lever shifted to a position other
than the neutral position
•
(Automatic transaxle vehicle)
•
The accelerator pedal is depressed.
•
The vehicle tilts rearward or the
selector lever is shifted to the R
position on level ground.
NOTE
•
If the electric parking brake (EPB)
switch is pulled while the AUTOHOLD
is operating, the AUTOHOLD is
released and the electric parking brake
(EPB) is applied. In addition, if the
electric parking brake (EPB) is released
under this condition, the AUTOHOLD
operates to hold the brakes.
•
Under the following conditions, the
electric parking brake (EPB) is
automatically applied and the
AUTOHOLD is released. The
AUTOHOLD is re-enabled when the
conditions before the AUTOHOLD is
released are restored.

The driver’s seat belt is unfastened.

When about ten minutes or longer have
passed since the AUTOHOLD operation
started, the electric parking brake
(EPB) is automatically applied. Because
the AUTOHOLD is restored when
releasing the electric parking brake
(EPB), the hold on the brakes by
AUTOHOLD function resumes.

When starting to drive the vehicle
forward or in reverse on a down slope,
depress the clutch pedal and shift the
shift lever to the appropriate position for
driving in the desired direction, and then
