6.3.1 EPB Safety
It may be dangerous to perform electrical parking brake (EPB)
system maintenance, so before you begin the service work, please
keep these rules in mind.
Ensure that you are fully familiar with the braking system and
its operation before commencing any work.
The EPB control system may be required to be deactivated
before carrying out any maintenance/diagnostic work on the
brake system. This can be done from the tool menu.
Only carry out maintenance work when the vehicle is stationary
and on level ground.
Ensure that the EPB control system is reactivated after the
maintenance work has been completed. You may have to
activate several times to position the brake pads.
