Pump-to-Set Parking Brake
The parking brake uses the brakes on
the rear wheels.
To Set
the
Parking Brake:
Hold the regular bralte pedal
down
with
your right foot. Pump your parking
brake pedal several times with your left
foot until the pedal feels firm. If the
ignition is
on,
the brake system warning
light will come on.
Over time, more pumps may be needed
to set the parlung brake firmly. If it ever
takes more than two full pumps, have
the brake system adjusted by your
dealer.
