To help avoid risk of injury or death through unintended operation of the vehicle and/or its systems, do not leave children, people who require the assistance of others or pets unattended in your vehicle. Additionally, the temperature inside a closed vehicle on a warm day can quickly become high enough to cause a significant risk of injury or death to people and pets.
Before leaving the vehicle, confirm that the vehicle is held by the parking brake or transmission.
A buzzer will sound if the vehicle is driven without releasing the parking brake. See
.While the electric parking brake is applied or released, an operating sound is heard from the lower side of the rear seat. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
When the electric parking brake is frequently applied and released in a short period of time, the parking brake may not operate in order to prevent the parking brake system from overheating. If this occurs, operate the electric parking brake switch again after waiting approximately 1 minute.
The electric parking brake can only be released with the ignition in the ON position.
If the electric parking brake must be applied while driving in an emergency, pull up and hold the parking brake switch. When you release the parking brake switch, the parking brake will be released.
While pulling up the electric parking brake switch while driving, the parking brake is applied and a chime sounds. The parking brake indicator light in the meter and in the parking brake switch illuminate. This does not indicate a malfunction. The electric parking brake indicator lights in the meter and in the parking brake switch turn off when the parking brake is released.
When pulling the electric parking brake switch up with the ignition in the OFF or ACC position, the parking brake switch indicator light will continue to illuminate for a short period of time.
To park the vehicle in cold climates place the shift lever in 1st (1) or Reverse (R) (or in Park (P) for automatic (AT) vehicles), and place suitable chocks at both the front and back of a wheel with the electric parking brake released.
