and a continuous chime will sound. The rear stop
lamps will also be illuminated automatically while
the vehicle remains in motion.
To disengage the parking brake while the vehicle is
in motion, release the switch. If the vehicle is
brought to a complete stop using the parking
brake, when the vehicle reaches approximately
3 mph, (5 km/h) the parking brake will remain
engaged.
WARNING!
Driving the vehicle with the parking brake
engaged, or repeated use of the parking brake
to slow the vehicle may cause serious damage to
the brake system; failure to do so can lead to
brake failure and a collision.
In the unlikely event of a malfunction of the EPB
system, a yellow EPB fault lamp will illuminate. This
may be accompanied by the Brake Warning Light
flashing. In this event, urgent service of the EPB
system is required. Do not rely on the parking
brake to hold the vehicle stationary.

The EPB can be programmed to be applied
automatically whenever the vehicle speed is below
1.9 mph (3 km/h) and the automatic transmission
is in PARK, or with a manual transmission,
whenever the ignition switch is in the OFF position.
Auto Park Brake is enabled and disabled by
customer selection through the Customer
Programmable Features section of the Uconnect
Settings.
Any single Auto Park Brake application can be
bypassed by pushing the EPB switch to the release
position while the transmission is in PARK
(automatic transmission) and the ignition is in the
ON/RUN position.

SafeHold is a safety feature of the EPB system that
will engage the parking brake automatically if the
vehicle is left unsecured while the ignition switch is
in ON/RUN.
For automatic transmissions, the EPB will
automatically engage if all of the following
conditions are met:
STARTING AND OPERATING
Vehicle speed is below 1.9 mph (3 km/h).

There is no attempt to press the brake pedal or

accelerator pedal.
The seat belt is unbuckled.

The driver door is open.

The vehicle is not in the PARK position.

For manual transmissions, the EPB will
automatically engage if all of the following
conditions are met:
Vehicle speed is below 1.9 mph (3 km/h).

There is no attempt to press the brake pedal or

accelerator pedal.
The clutch pedal is not pressed.

The seat belt is unbuckled.

The driver door is open.

SafeHold can be temporarily bypassed by pushing
the EPB switch while the driver door is open and
the brake pedal is pressed. Once manually
bypassed, SafeHold will be enabled again once the
vehicle reaches 12 mph (20 km/h) or the ignition
is turned to the OFF position and back to ON/RUN
again.
