Low Ground Clearance
The low ground clear-ance of the ELR aids its aerodynamic efficiency. As a result, the flexible air deflector under the front fascia (bumper) may contact a parking block or curb if the vehicle is parked too closely. Use care when parking to avoid damage.
See Vehicle Care in your Owner Manual.
Electric Parking Brake
To apply the parking brake, pull the Parking Brake switch on the left side of the instrument panel.
To release the parking brake, with the ignition in the ON or Accessory position, press the brake pedal and press the
Parking Brake switch.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.
Pedestrian Safety Signal
The vehicle is equipped with an automatic sound generator and a manual alert. The automatic sound is generated at speeds below 20 mph to indicate the vehicle’s presence to pedestrians.
To activate the additional manual alert, with the vehicle in gear, pull the turn signal lever toward you. The high-beam headlamps will flash and a soft-note alert will sound.
See Instruments and Controls in your Owner Manual.
