• SafeHold a new feature that will automatically apply the park brake under certainconditions. 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 20 seconds in either the released or applied position. The light will extinguish
upon releasing the switch.
• Refer to the Starting And Operating section of your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further details.
CAUTION!
If the Brake System Warning Light remains on with the parking brake released, a
brake system malfunction is indicated. Have the brake system serviced by an
authorized dealer immediately.
WARNING!
• Never use the PARK position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and
possible injury or damage.
• When leaving the vehicle, always make sure the ignition is in the OFF mode,
remove the Key Fob from the vehicle, and lock your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the transmission gear
selector.
• Do not leave the Key Fob in or near the vehicle, (or in a location accessible to
children), and do not leave the ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child
could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
• Be sure the parking brake is fully disengaged before driving; failure to do so can
lead to brake failure and a collision.
• Always fully apply the parking brake when leaving your vehicle, or it may roll
and cause damage or injury. Also be certain to leave the transmission in PARK.
Failure to do so may allow the vehicle to roll and cause damage or injury.
•

brake to slow the vehicle may cause serious damage to the brake system.
