The Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) system utilizes an electric motor to engage the parking brake .
Applying the Parking Brake
Depress the brake pedal and pull up the EPB switch A . Ensure that the indicator light is illuminated on the instrument cluster .
Releasing the Parking Brake
The EPB will automatically release when the brake pedal is engaged and shifter is shifted out of P (Park) to R (Reverse) or shifted out of N (Neutral) to Reverse or D (Drive) .
To release EPB manually, depress the brake pedal, then press the EPB switch A, with the ignition switch in the ON position . Ensure that the indicator light is OFF .
Auto Hold temporarily maintains the vehicle at a standstill even though the brake pedal is not depressed after the driver brings the vehicle to a complete stop by depressing the brake pedal . Auto Hold can be turned On/Off using the AUTO HOLD button B on the center panel below the gear shift . Before Auto Hold will operate, the driver ’s door, engine hood and liftgate must be closed, and the driver ’s seat belt must be fastened .
The Auto Hold indicator on the Instrument Cluster has four states:
White: Standby – When vehicle is in Park and at a standstill, and AUTO HOLD button B is pressed On, the indicator will illuminate white . While driving the vehicle (vehicle is not at a standstill), the Auto Hold indicator will remain white .
Green: Engaged – When coming to a complete stop by depressing the brake pedal, the Auto Hold indicator changes from white to green .
Off (not illuminated) – The indicator will turn Off when the AUTO HOLD button B is manually pressed Off or when the EPB is manually turned On .
