Apply the electric parking brake when
the vehicle is moving
WARNINGS
Applying the electric parking brake
while moving will result in the
engagement of the anti-lock braking
system. Do not use the electric parking
brake system when the vehicle is moving
unless the normal brake system is unable
to stop the vehicle.
With the exception of emergency
conditions (for example, the brake
pedal is broken or is blocked), do not
apply the electric parking brake while the
vehicle is moving. On bends, or poor road
surfaces or weather conditions, emergency
braking can cause the vehicle to skid out
of control or off the road.
If you apply the electric parking brake when
your vehicle is moving, the brake system
warning lamp illuminates and a warning
tone sounds. See Information Displays
(page 76).
If your vehicle speed is above 6 km/h, the
braking force is applied as long as you pull
the switch. Releasing or pressing the
switch or pressing the accelerator pedal
stops the braking force.
