Braking force will only be applied
to the rear wheels if the parking
brake is activated when the vehicle
is stationary. Braking force is applied
to all four wheels using the hydraulic
foot brake circuit if the parking brake
is activated when the vehicle is moving
but transfers to the rear wheels once
almost stationary.
Emergency braking
In an emergency situation, the
parking brake can be activated when
the vehicle is moving by pulling and
holding the lever on the parking brake
switch. Braking is deactivated when
the lever is released, or the accelerator
pedal depressed.

NOTE:
