If the electric parking brake cannot be deactivated because the
battery is flat or there is a failure in the electrical system controlling
it, and the vehicle needs to be moved, the emergency release
procedure described below must be performed.
• Before performing this procedure, remove fuse F33 and F34 from
the body computer fuse box, situated under the driver side of the
dashboard (see page 215).
• Select the EPB emergency release socket wrench
bag and connect to the extension
Warning
The EPB emergency release tool A may only be used by
specialised workshop technicians, as indicated on label on the
tool bag.
• The EPB system components are situated over the right and left
hand rear callipers: Insert the EPB release tool A, connected to
the extension D, through the access holes B. Insert a standard
1/2" wrench from the opposite end of the extension
anticlockwise by two turns to free the brake discs.
Warning

Once the electric parking brake has been manually released, the
EPB node records a failure at the next key-on and a special symbol
and the following message are displayed on the left TFT display:
"Parking Brake system revision. Go to dealer".
Warning
If access to the screws is obstructed by a wheel spoke, the wheel
must be removed.
The EPB release procedure is irreversible and compromises the
functionality of the parking brake.
Take the vehicle to an authorised service centre to have the
parking brake reset correctly and cancel any errors from the
fault memory.
Go to a Ferrari Service Centre.
For safety reasons, the reset procedure is mandatory.
