Parking brake
To set the parking brake, press the brake pedal firm-
ly and hold it down while fully pulling up the parking
brake lever.
To release the parking brake, pull the lever up slight-
ly, press the release button, then lower the lever
while keeping the button pressed.
When the parking brake is set while the engine is
running, the parking brake warning light comes on.
After starting the vehicle, be sure that the warning
light has gone out before the vehicle is driven. Refer
to the “Warning and indicator lights” section (chap-
ter 3).
CAUTION
Never drive while the parking brake is set be-
cause this will cause unnecessary wear on the
brake linings. Before starting to drive, always
make sure that the parking brake has been ful-
ly released.

Parking tips
When parking your vehicle, always set the parking
brake firmly and put the shift lever in the “1” (1st) for
an upgrade or “R” (Reverse) for a downgrade for
manual transmission vehicles, or in the “P” (Park)
position for automatic transmission vehicles. Always
set the parking brake firmly when parking your ve-
hicle. Never rely on the transmission alone to hold
the vehicle.
