Pump-to-Set Parking Brake
The parking brake uses the brakes on
the rear wheels.
To Set the Parking Brake:
Hold the regular brake pedal down with
your right foot. Pump your parking
brake pedal several times with your left
foot until the pedal feels firm. If the
ignition is on, the brake system warning
light will come on.
Over time, more
pumps
may be needed
to set the parking brake firmly. If it ever
takes more than two full pumps, have
the brake system adjusted by your
dealer.
To Release the Parking Brake:
Hold the regular brake pedal down. Pull
the BRAKE RELEASE lever.
Driving with the parKing DraKe on
can cause your rear brakes to
overheat. You may have to replace
them, and you could also damage
other parts of your vehicle.
