ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE (EPB)
Your vehicle is equipped with an Electric Parking Brake System (EPB) that offers simple
operation, and some additional features that make the parking brake more convenient and useful.
The parking brake switch is located in the center console.
To engage the parking brake manually, pull up
on the switch momentarily.
To release the parking brake manually, the igni-
tion switch must be in the ON/RUN position.
Push on the brake pedal, then push the parking
brake switch down momentarily.
The parking brake will disengage automatically
when the ignition switch in the RUN position, the
transmission is in DRIVE or REVERSE, the driver
seat belt is buckled, and an attempt is made to
drive away by pressing the accelerator pedal.
NOTE:
• You may hear a slight whirring sound from
the back of the vehicle while the parking
brake engages or disengages.
• Once the parking brake is fully engaged, the BRAKE warning lamp in the instrument cluster
and the LED indicator on the switch will illuminate. Once the parking brake is fully disengaged,
the BRAKE warning lamp in the instrument cluster and the LED indicator on the switch will
extinguish.
• If your foot is on the brake pedal while you are engaging or disengaging the parking brake, you
may notice a small amount of brake pedal movement.
• The parking brake can be engaged even when the ignition switch is OFF, however, it can only
be disengaged when the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN position.
• The EPB fault lamp will illuminate if the EPB switch is held for longer than 20 seconds in either
the released or applied position. The light will extinguish upon releasing the switch.
• Refer to the “Starting and Operating” section of your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual on the DVD
