Disengaging The EPB Manually
In order to manually release the parking brake,
the ignition should be in the ACC mode. Press
the brake pedal, and then push the switch on
the center console briefly.
Noise may be heard from the rear of the
vehicle, and a slight movement of the brake
pedal may be detected during disengagement.
After disengaging the EPB, the BRAKE warning
light on the instrument cluster display and the
light on the switch will turn off.
If the BRAKE warning light on the instrument
cluster display remains on with the EPB disen -
gaged, this indicates a fault: in this case,
contact an authorized dealer.
NOTE:

Always engage the EPB when parking the
vehicle to prevent injury or damage caused
by the unexpected movement of the vehicle.

Never use gear position PARK (P) instead of
the EPB.
Electric Park Brake (EPB) Operating Modes
The EPB may operate as follows:

“Dynamic Operating Mode”: this mode is
activated by pulling the switch repeatedly
while driving.

“Static Engagement and Release Mode”:
with the vehicle stationary, the EPB can be
activated by pulling the switch on the center
console once. Push the switch and the
brake pedal at the same time to disengage
the brake.

“Drive Away Release” — if equipped: the
EPB will automatically disengage with the
driver side seat belt fastened and the detec -
tion of an action performed by the driver to
move the vehicle (DRIVE [D] or REVERSE
[R]). This feature can be turned on or off in
the Information and Entertainment System.
NOTE:
If the car is equipped with carbon-ceramic
brake discs, it is necessary to fasten the seat
belts or turn off the EPB before starting to
avoid damages to the ceramic brake discs.

“Safe Hold”: if the vehicle speed is lower
than 1.9 mph (3 km/h), the gear selector is
not in PARK (P) position and the driver's
intention of leaving the vehicle is detected,
the EPB will automatically engage to hold
the vehicle in safety conditions.

“Auto Park Brake”: if the vehicle speed is
below 1.9 mph (3 km/h), the EPB will auto -
matically engage when the gear selector is
in PARK (P) position. The light on the switch
located on the center console switches on
together with the BRAKE warning light on
the instrument cluster display when the
parking brake is engaged and applied to the
wheels. Each automatic parking brake
engagement can be canceled by pushing
the switch on the center console and at the
same time moving the gear selector for the
transmission to position PARK (P).
Safe Hold
Safe Hold is a safety function that automati -
cally engages the EPB in the event of a
dangerous condition for the vehicle.
WARNING!

Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle.

Allowing children to be in a vehicle unat -
tended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seri -
ously or fatally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the gear selector.

Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle or in a location accessible to chil -
dren. A child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.

Be sure the parking brake is fully disen -
gaged before driving; failure to do so can
lead to brake failure and a collision.

Always fully apply the parking brake when
leaving your vehicle, or it may roll and
cause damage or injury.
