Parking Brake

The vehicle is equipped with an
electric automatic parking brake, also
called EPB (Electric Parking Brake).
It is automatically engaged when the
engine is turned off and disengaged
with engine running and driver's door
closed, while pressing the brake pedal
and operating the shift lever.
When the parking brake is applied, the
warning light lights up on the
Rev Counter display and the related
message is displayed on the instrument
cluster for 5 seconds (see "Instrument
Cluster" in section 4).
During engagement and
disengagement procedures, the
warning light flashes until the
parking brake has reached its
maximum activation force and is
respectively fully released.
