Electric Parking Brake - Cadillac CT6 2020 Owner's Manual

200 DRIVING AND OPERATING
Using ABS
Do not pump the brakes. Just hold the
brake pedal down firmly and let ABS
work. You may hear the ABS pump or
motor operating and feel the brake
pedal pulsate. This is normal.
When ABS is active, it may be an
indication that road surfaces are
slippery. Braking sooner may be
required for driving conditions.
If equipped with electric brake boost,
the TCS/StabiliTrak/ESC light will
flash when ABS is active.
Braking in Emergencies
ABS allows steering and braking at the
same time. In many emergencies,
steering can help even more than
braking.

Electric Parking Brake

The vehicle has an Electric Parking
Brake (EPB). The EPB can always be
activated, even if the ignition is off. To
prevent draining the battery, avoid
repeated cycles of the EPB system
when the engine is not running.
The system has a or PARK
Electric Parking Brake light, and a
Service Parking Brake light. See
Electric Parking Brake Light 0 125 and
Service Electric Parking Brake Light
0 126.
Before leaving the vehicle, check for
the or PARK light to ensure that
the parking brake is applied.
EPB Apply
To apply the EPB:
1. Be sure the vehicle is at a
complete stop.
2. Press the EPB switch
momentarily.
The or PARK light will flash and
then stay on once the EPB is fully
applied. If the or PARK light
flashes continuously, then the EPB is
only partially applied or there is a
problem with the EPB. A DIC message
will display. Release the EPB and try
to apply it again. If the light does not
come on, or keeps flashing, have the
vehicle serviced. Do not drive the
vehicle if the or PARK light is
flashing. See your dealer. See Electric
Parking Brake Light 0 125.
