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

•This mode automatically begins to deactivate at speeds above 38 mph and
is shifted to AWD AUTO mode at speeds above 38 mph If the vehicle decelerates to speeds below approximately 38 mph, however, the transfer mode is shifted into AWD LOCK mode again
