WARNING
Parking brake use
Never allow a passenger to touch
the parking brake. If the parking
brake is released unintentionally,
serious injury may occur.
All vehicles should always have
the parking brake fully engaged
when parked to avoid inadvertent
movement of the vehicles which
can injure occupants or pedestri-
ans.
A click or electric brake motor
whine sound may be heard whilst
operating or releasing the EPB.
These conditions are normal and
indicate that the EPB is function-
ing properly.
When leaving your keys with a
parking lot attendant or valet,
make sure to inform him/her how
to operate the EPB.
The EPB may malfunction if you
drive with the EPB applied.
When you automatically release
EPB by pressing the accelerator
pedal, press it slowly.
When the conversion from Auto
Hold to EPB is not working properly
a warning will sound and a message
will appear.
