Automatic Transmission - Ford FUSION HYBRID 2019 Quick Reference Manual

Electric Parking Brake
The electric parking brake switch replaces the conventional hand brake. The switch is on
the center console. To apply the electric parking brake, pull the switch up. The brake system
warning lamp flashes for approximately 2 seconds, and then illuminates to confirm that you
applied the parking brake. To release the electric parking brake manually, switch the ignition
on, press the brake pedal and then press the switch down. The brake system warning lamp
turns off. Your vehicle automatically releases the parking brake when the driver door is closed,
the accelerator pedal is pressed and no faults are detected in the parking brake system.
NOTE:
If the electric parking brake warning lamp stays on, then the electric parking brake
did not automatically release. You must release the electric parking brake using the switch.
Rear View Camera
The Rear View Camera system provides a video image of the area behind the vehicle.
The image appears when your vehicle is in reverse (R) and uses a variety of guidelines to
alert you of your proximity to objects. For more information about the Rear View Camera,
please see the Parking Aids chapter of your Owner's Manual.
NOTE:
If mud, water or debris obstructs the camera's view, clean the lens with a soft,
lint-free cloth and non-abrasive cleaner.
