Driving Parking brake To set the parking brake (1), press the parking brake pedal down until the pedal stops. The BRAKE warning lamp will illuminate and will remain illuminated until the parking brake is released. To release, pull the lever (2). ! P BRAKE Always set the parking brake fully and make sure that the gearshift is securely latched in P (Park). TRACTION CONTROL™ (IF EQUIPPED) Your vehicle may be equipped with a Traction Control™ system. This system helps you maintain the stability and steerability of your vehicle, especially on slippery road surfaces such as snow- or ice-covered roads and gravel roads. The system will allow your vehicle to make better use of available traction in these conditions. During Traction Control™ operation, the traction control active light will illuminate and the engine will not "rev-up" when you push further on the accelerator. This is normal system behavior and should be no reason for concern. 216 2008 Mark LT (mlt) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
