To apply
1- Firmly depress and hold the brake
pedal, then pull the lever up without
pushing the button at the end of hand
grip.
CAUTION
 Normally,
w
hen you intend to apply the
parking brake, firmly press the brake pedal
to bring the vehicle to a complete stop before
pulling the parking brake lever.
Pulling the parking brake lever with the
vehicle moving could make the rear wheels
lock up, thereby making the vehicle unstable.
It could also make the parking brake mal-
function.
NOTE
 Apply sufficient force to the parking brake
lever to hold the vehicle stationary after the
foot brake is released.

If the parking brake does not hold the vehicle
stationary after the foot brake is released,
contact your authorised MITSUBISHI
MOTORS dealer.
To release
1- Firmly depress and hold the brake
pedal, then pull the lever up slightly.
2- Push the button at the end of hand grip.
3- Lower the lever fully.
CAUTION
 Before driving, be sure that the parking
brake is fully released and brake warning
lamp is off.
If you drive without the parking brake fully
released, the warning display will appear on
the information screen in the multi informa-
tion display and a buzzer sound when the
vehicle speed exceeds 8 km/h.
If a vehicle is driven without releasing the
parking brake, the brake will be overheated,
resulting in ineffective braking and possible
brake failure.
