Quick Reference Guide
Pulling the electric parking
brake switch does not
release the parking brake.
Why?Pull the electric parking brake switch with the brake pedal
depressed.
Depressing the accelerator
pedal does not release the
parking brake
automatically. Why?●Fasten the driver’s seat belt.
●Check if the transmission is in (P or (N. If so, select any other
position.
Why does the gear position
automatically change to
(P
when I open the driver’s
door to check for parking
space lines when
reversing?
●Fasten the driver’s seat belt.
●Close the driver’s door and manually change the gear
position.
2 When opening the driver’s door (P547)
I’m seeing an amber
indicator of a tire with an
exclamation point. What is
that?The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) needs attention.
Check tire pressure.
