Parking Brake The parking brake pedal is located to the left of the regular brake pedal, near the driver's door. When you move out of PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N) and the engine is running, the parking brake should release. If the parking brake has not been fully released and you try to drive off with the parking brake on, the BRAKE indicator light will come on and stay on and a multiple chime will sound. If the parking brake doesn't fully release, you can manually release the pedal. However, be sure to read the following paragraphs: CAUTION: To set the parking brake, hold the regular brake pedal down with your right foot and push the parking brake pedal down with your left foot. If the ignition is on, the BRAKE indicator light on the instrument panel cluster should come on. If it doesn't, you need to have your vehicle serviced. Always shift to PARK (P) before pulling the manual release lever. If your hand or arm is in the way of the pedal you could be hurt. The pedal springs back quickly. Keep your hand and arm away when you use the manual release lever. Before releasing the manual parking brake, be sure to put the vehicle in PARK (P) and turn the ignition to OFF. 2-31
