Tips 0238.
Parking Brake (Electric)
If equipped with an Electric Parking
Brake (EPB), the switch is on the
left side of the instrument panel.
The EPB can always be activated,
even if the ignition is off. To prevent
draining the battery, avoid repeated
cycles of the EPB when the engine
is not running. The system has a red parking brake
status light and an amber parking
brake warning light. See
Parking
Brake Light 0120 andService
Electric Parking Brake Light 0121.
There are also parking brake-related
Driver Information Center (DIC)
messages. See Brake System
Messages 0132. In case of
insufficient electrical power, the EPB
cannot be applied or released.

the red parking brake status light to
ensure that the parking brake is
applied.
EPB Apply
To apply the EPB:
1. Be sure the vehicle is at a complete stop.
2. Lift up the EPB switch momentarily.
The red parking brake status light
will flash and then stay on once the
EPB is fully applied. If the red
parking brake status light flashes
continuously, then the EPB is only
partially applied or there is a
problem with the EPB. A DIC message will display. Release the
EPB and try to apply it again. If the
light does not come one, or keeps
flashing, have the vehicle serviced.
Do not drive the vehicle if the red
parking brake status light is flashing.
See your dealer. See
Parking Brake
Light 0120.
If the amber parking brake warning
light is on, lift up on the EPB switch
and hold it up. Continue to hold the
switch until the red parking brake
status light remains on. If the amber
parking brake warning light is on,
see your dealer.
If the EPB is applied while the
vehicle is moving, the vehicle will
decelerate as long as the switch is
held up. If the switch is held up until
the vehicle comes to a stop, the
EPB will remain applied.
The vehicle may automatically apply
the EPB in some situations when
the vehicle is not moving. This is
normal, and is done to periodically
check the correct operation of the
EPB system.

Modifications0245.
Driver Mode Control
Driver Mode Control attempts to add
a sportier feel, provide a more
comfortable ride, or assist in
different weather conditions or
terrain. This system simultaneously
changes the software calibration of
various sub-systems. Depending on
the option package, available
features, and mode selected, the
suspension, steering, and
powertrain will change calibrations
to achieve the desired mode
characteristics. If the vehicle is
equipped with Magnetic Ride
Control, selecting the various Driver
Modes adjusts the ride of the
vehicle to enhance the ride
performance for the road conditions
and the selected mode.
The Driver Mode Control has three
or four modes: Tour, Sport, Snow/
Ice, and Track (LF4 Only). Press
and release the MODE button (ATS) or press the
yorzbutton (ATS-V)
on the center console to activate the
mode menu in the cluster. The first
press of the button will show the
current mode. Subsequent presses
will scroll though the available
modes. The Tour and Sport modes
will feel similar on a smooth road.
Select a new setting whenever
driving conditions change.
Tour Mode
Use for normal city and highway
driving to provide a smooth,
soft ride.
Sport Mode
Use where road conditions or
personal preference demand a more
controlled response.
When selected, the Sport mode
indicator will display in the Driver
Information Center (DIC).
When in Sport or Track mode, the
vehicle will shift automatically but
may hold a lower gear longer than it
would in the normal driving mode
based on braking, throttle input, and vehicle lateral acceleration. See
Automatic Transmission
0198. The
steering will change to provide more
precise control. If the vehicle has
Magnetic Ride Control, the
suspension will change to provide
better cornering performance.
Competitive Driving Mode can be
accessed through this mode.
Snow/Ice Mode
Use when more traction is needed
during slippery conditions. The
transmission will use 2 (Second)
gear instead of 1 (First) gear when
accelerating from a stop. The
vehicle will upshift normally when
the vehicle is moving.
For LF4 only, Snow/Ice mode will
use a different accelerator pedal
map to optimize traction on a
slippery surface. The accelerator
pedal will reduce engine torque at
small pedal inputs. The transmission
will also shift differently to assist in
maintaining traction.
When selected, the Snow/Ice mode
indicator will display in the DIC.
