The actuator retraction can be done easily by
entering the Brake Service Mode through the
Uconnect Settings in your vehicle. This menu
based system will guide you through the
steps necessary to retract the EPB actuator in
order to perform rear brake service.
Service Mode has requirements that must be
met in order to be activated:
• The vehicle must be at a standstill.
• The parking brake must be disabled.
• The transmission must be in park or neu-
tral.
• The EPB switch not activated.
• The vehicle in ignition RUN mode.
• The brake pedal not pressed.
While in service mode, the EPB fault lamp
will flash continuously while the ignition is in
the RUN mode.
NOTE:
A dedicated message will appear in the in-
strument cluster if Brake Service Mode can-
not be activated.
When brake service work is complete, the
following steps must be followed to reset the
parking brake system to normal operation:
• Ensure the vehicle is at a standstill.
• Press the brake pedal with moderate force.
• Apply the EPB Switch.
NOTE:
A dedicated message will appear in the in-
strument cluster if Brake Service Mode can-
not be deactivated.
WARNING!
You can be badly injured working on or
around a motor vehicle. Do only that ser-
vice work for which you have the knowl-
edge and the right equipment. If you have
any doubt about your ability to perform a
service job, take your vehicle to a compe-
tent mechanic.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION
WARNING!
You or others could be injured if you leave
the vehicle unattended without having the
parking brake fully applied. The parking
brake should always be applied when the
driver is not in the vehicle, especially on an
incline.
CAUTION!
Never drive with your foot resting on the
clutch pedal, or attempt to hold the ve-
hicle on a hill with the clutch pedal par-
tially engaged, as this will cause abnormal
wear on the clutch.
NOTE:
During cold weather, you may experience
increased effort in shifting until the transmis-
sion fluid warms up. This is normal.
