CAUTION
When parking in an area where the
outside temperature is below 32°F
(0°C), the electronic parking brake, if
applied, may freeze in place and may
be difficult to release.
For safe parking, it is recommended

OFF position, depress the brake
pedal and push down the parking
brake switch before opening the
driver’s door.
. If a malfunction occurs in the elec-
tronic parking brake system (for
example, due to battery discharge),
it is recommended to contact a
NISSAN dealer.
. Under the following conditions, the
electronic parking brake will auto-
matically be applied and the brake
force of the automatic brake hold
will be released.
—The braking force is applied by
the automatic brake hold function
for 3 minutes or longer.
— The vehicle is placed in the P
(Park) position.
— The driver’s seat belt is unfas-
tened.

. While the electronic parking brake is
applied or released, an operating
sound is heard from the lower side
of the rear seat. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
. When the electronic parking brake is
frequently applied and released in a
short period of time, the electronic

gency, pull up and hold the parking
brake switch. When you release the
parking brake switch, the electronic
parking brake will be released.
. While pulling up the parking brake
switch during driving, the electronic
parking brake is applied and a chime
sounds. The electronic parking
brake warning light (red) and the
indicator light on the parking brake
switch illuminate. This does not in-
dicate a malfunction. The electronic
parking brake warning light (red)
and the indicator light on the park-
ing brake switch will turn off when
the electronic parking brake is re-
leased. .

switch up with the ignition switch
in the OFF position, the indicator
light on the parking brake switch
will continue to illuminate for a short
period of time.
When towing a trailer
Depending on the weight of the vehicle
and trailer and the steepness of the slope,
there may be a tendency for the vehicle
to move backwards when starting from a
standstill. When this occurs, you can use
the parking brake switch in the same way
as a conventional lever type parking
brake.
Before starting on sloping roads when
towing a trailer, be sure to read the
following to prevent the vehicle from
moving backward unintentionally.
.Release the parking brake switch as
soon as the engine is delivering en-
ough torque to the wheels.
