RAKE ERVICE ODE
We recommend having your brakes serviced by
an authorized dealer.
Refer to an authorized dealer to perform this
procedure.
You should only make repairs for which you
have the knowledge and the right equipment.
You should only enter Brake Service Mode
during brake service.
When servicing your rear brakes, it may be
necessary for you or your technician to push the
rear piston into the rear caliper bore. With the
EPB system, this can only be done after
retracting the EPB actuator. The actuator
retraction can be done easily by entering the
Brake Service Mode through the Uconnect
Settings in your vehicle. This menu based
system will guide you through the steps
necessary to retract the EPB actuator in order to
perform rear brake service.
Service Mode has requirements that must be
met in order to be activated:
The vehicle must be at a standstill.

The parking brake must be disabled.

The transmission must be in PARK or

NEUTRAL.
The EPB switch not activated.

The vehicle in ignition ON/RUN position.



While in service mode, the EPB fault lamp will
flash continuously while the ignition switch is

A dedicated message will appear in the instru-
ment cluster display if Brake Service Mode
cannot be activated.

WARNING!

around a motor vehicle. Do only that service
work for which you have the knowledge and
the right equipment. If you have any doubt
about your ability to perform a service job,
take your vehicle to a competent mechanic.
