Parking Brake
To set the parking brake, hold the regular brake pedal
down with your right foot and pull up on the parking
brake lever. If the ignition is on, the brake system
warning light will come on.
To release the parking brake, hold the regular brake
pedal down. Pull the parking brake lever up until you
can press in the button at the end of the lever. Hold the
button in as you move the parking brake lever all the
way down.
NOTICE:
Driving with the parking brake on can cause
your parking brake to overheat. You may have
to replace them, and you could also damage other
parts of your vehicle.
If you are towing a trailer and you must park on a hill,
see “Towing a Trailer” in the Index. That section shows
what to do first to keep the trailer from moving.
