result in severe injury or death.
With the key switch ‘ON’, depressing the accelerator
pedal starts the engine. When the pedal is released, the
engine will stop (Ref. Fig. 9 on page 7). To stop the vehi-

If key switch is ‘ON’ and park brake is set, depressing the
accelerator inadvertently will release the park brake and
will cause the vehicle to move which could cause severe
injury or death.
Depressing the accelerator pedal will release the park
brake if it is engaged. This is a feature to assure the vehi-

ing the accelerator pedal is not the preferred method of
releasing the park brake.
Depressing the lower section of the brake
pedal is the preferred method of releasing the
park brake to assure the longest service life of brake compo-
nents.
