PARK BRAKE LEVER (IF EQUIPPED)
Always apply the service brakes
before engaging or releasing the
park brake. To help prevent the
vehicle from rolling, set the park
brake when parking the vehicle.
When the park brake is set and the
park brake indicator is illuminated,
engine speed is limited. If the
accelerator is applied, this limiting
feature prevents operation, which
protects the park brake pads from
excessive wear.
TIP
This feature will not operate properly if the park brake connector or switch
(under the hood) malfunctions or becomes disconnected, or if the switch has
moved. Check for disconnection, then see your dealer or other qualified
service person promptly if this feature fails to operate properly.
1. To set the park brake, apply the brakes. Pull the park brake lever
q
towards
yourself as far as possible.
2. To release the park brake, apply the brakes. Turn the park brake lever
counterclockwise and push it in as far as possible.
