Applying the parking brake

To apply the EPB (Electric Parking Brake):

1. Depress the brake pedal.

2. Pull up the EPB switch.

Make sure that the parking brake indicator light illuminates.

In addition, the EPB is applied automatically if the [AUTO HOLD] switch is on when the engine is turned off. However, if you press the EPB switch within one second after the engine is turned off, the EPB will not be applied.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH, do not use the EPB while the vehicle is moving, except in an emergency situation. This may damage the brake system and cause an accident.
