To apply the park brake manually, pull up on the
switch momentarily. The BRAKE warning lamp
in the instrument cluster and an indicator on
the switch will illuminate. To release the park
brake manually, the ignition switch must be in
RUN. Then put your foot on the brake pedal and
push the park brake switch down momentarily.
Once the park brake is fully disengaged, the
BRAKE warning lamp and the switch indicator
will extinguish.
The park brake can also be automatically re-
leased. With the engine running and the trans-
mission in gear, release the brake pedal and
depress the throttle pedal. For safety reasons,
your seat belt must also be fastened.
NOTE:
• You may hear a slight whirring sound from
the back of the vehicle while the park brake
engages or disengages.
• If your foot is on the brake pedal while you
are engaging or disengaging the parking
brake, you may notice a small amount of
brake pedal movement.
• The new Auto Park Brake feature can be
used to apply the park brake automatically
every time you park the vehicle. Auto Park
Brake can be enabled and disabled in the
Settings menu in Uconnect.
• The parking brake can be engaged even
when the ignition switch is OFF; however,
it can only be disengaged when the ignition
switch is in the ON/RUN position.
• SafeHold is a new feature that will automati-
cally apply the park brake under certain
conditions. The EPB monitors the status of
the driver's seat belt, driver's door and pedal
positions to determine if the driver may have
exited while the vehicle is still capable of
moving and will then automatically apply
the park brake to prevent the vehicle from
rolling.
• The EPB fault lamp will illuminate if the
EPB switch is held for longer than 90 sec-
onds in either the released or applied posi-
tion. The light will extinguish upon releasing
the switch.
