In extremely cold temperatures, the parking brake
may freeze up if applied. If such temperatures are
expected, do not apply the parking brake but, if
parking on a slope, either turn the front wheels so

moving. If you do not take either precaution, the
vehicle may roll unexpectedly, leading to a crash.
