pressing the release button in, pull
the parking brake lever up as far as
possible. In addition it is recommend-

positioned in the appropriate low
gear on manual transmission vehi-
cles or in the P (Park) position on
automatic transmission vehicles.
Releasing the parking brake

parking brake lever slightly. Secondly
depress the release button (1) and
lower the parking brake lever (2)
