FEATURES AND CONTROLS Console Park Brake Lever To help prevent the vehicle from rolling, set the park brake when parking the vehicle. When the park brake is set and the park brake indicator is illuminated, motor speed is limited. If the accelerator is applied, this limiting feature prevents operation, which protects the park brake pads from excessive wear. Tip: This feature will not operate properly if the park brake connector or switch (under the hood) malfunctions or becomes disconnected, or if the switch has moved. Check for disconnection, then see your dealer promptly if this feature fails to operate properly. Always apply the service brakes before engaging or releasing the park brake. 1. Apply the brakes. 2. Pull the park brake lever downward as far as possible. 3. To release the park brake, apply the brakes. Press the park brake release inward and move the lever upward as far as possible.
