Application of the EPB when
the vehicle is moving
WARNING
With the exception of
emergency conditions (e.g. the
brake pedal does not work or is
blocked), do not apply the EPB while
the vehicle is moving. On bends, on
poor road surfaces or weather
conditions, emergency braking can
cause the vehicle to skid out of
control or off the road.
If you apply the EPB while the vehicle
is moving, the brake system warning
lamp will come on and a warning
chime will sound.
At speeds above 6 km/h (4 mph),
the braking force is applied as long
as you hold the switch in the
pulled-up position. The EPB will be
applied until you release or press
down the switch, or press the
accelerator pedal further.
Parking on a hill
If you have to park facing uphill, select
first gear and turn the front wheels
away from the kerb. If you have to
park facing downhill, select reverse
gear and turn the front wheels
towards the kerb.
To release the EPB
Automatic release - Drive
Away Release (DAR)
Note:
The engine must be running
and accelerator pedal must be
pressed before the Drive Away
Release will work.
Engage first or reverse gear, move
off as normal using the accelerator
and clutch pedals and the EPB will
be released automatically (Drive
Away Release).
The brake system warning lamp goes
off to confirm that the EPB has been
released.
Note:
On vehicles with manual
transmission, if the gear lever is in
neutral when you release the clutch
pedal and depress the accelerator
pedal, the EPB will be released
automatically.
Note:
The EPB also makes moving
off on a slope easier and prevents
the vehicle from rolling in an
undesired direction. The brakes are
released automatically once the
clutch is engaged and the engine has
developed sufficient drive to prevent
the vehicle from rolling down the
slope. This is an advantage when
pulling away on a slope e.g. from a
car park ramp, traffic lights or when
reversing uphill into a parking space.
Manual release
Note:
To release the EPB, the
ignition must be in position
