Parking Brake - Buick 2007 Terraza Owner's Manual

Parking Brake

To set the parking brake, hold the regular brake
pedal down with your right foot and push down on
the parking brake pedal with your left foot.
The parking brake is
located under the
instrument panel on the
driver's side of the
vehicle.
If the ignition is on, the brake system warning light
will come on. See Brake System Warning Light
on page 214.
To release the parking brake, hold the regular
brake pedal down with your right foot while
you push down on the parking brake pedal with
your left foot. When you lift your left foot from the
parking brake pedal, it will pop up to the
released position.
Notice: Driving with the parking brake on can
overheat the brake system and cause
premature wear or damage to brake system
parts. Verify that the parking brake is fully
released and the brake warning light is
off before driving.
If you are towing a trailer and are parking on any
hill, see Towing a Trailer on page 386.
