Emergency Release
The EPB manual release tool is located at the forward end of the storage compartment. (The
screwdriver handle of the tool kit is used with this tool). The manual release is located on the
passenger side of the vehicle just in front of the right rear tire. A slot in the underside of the
vehicle body allows the release tool, located in the spare tire area of the vehicle, to align with
the mechanical release port of the EPB Actuator/CM.
Caution: Always check that the ignition is in the off position and the vehicle is in
the “P” range (“1st” or “R” for MT model) before mechanically releasing
the EPB.
Tool Storage EPB Manual Release
Remove the white colored cap by turning the tool counter clockwise. Then puncture the
protective plastic film covering the release lug. The lug is made onto the end of the armature of
the EPB motor. Turn the armature 200-250 times CLOCKWISE to fully release the EPB. Install
the cap immediately after to prevent contamination.
