• The new Auto Park Brake feature can be used
to apply the park brake automatically whenever
the vehicle speed is below 1.9 mph (3 km/h)
and the automatic transmission is placed in
PARK, or with a manual transmission, whenever
the ignition is turned off. Auto Park Brake can
be enabled and disabled in the Settings menu in
Uconnect.
•
The parking brake can be engaged even when the
ignition is OFF, however, it can only be disengaged
when the ignition is in the RUN mode.
• SafeHold is a new feature that will automatically
apply the park brake under certain conditions.
The EPB monitors the st atus of the driver’s seat
belt, driver’s door and pedal positions to deter-
mine if the driver may have exited while the
vehicle is still capable of moving and will then
automatically apply the park brake to prevent
the vehicle from rolling.
• If vehicle speed is below 1.9 mph (3 km/h), the
EPB fault lamp will illuminate if the EPB switch is
held for longer than 10 seconds in either the
released or applied position. The light will
extinguish upon releasing the switch.

WARNING!
• When exiting the vehicle, always remove the
key fob from the vehicle and lock your
vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing
children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child
or others could be seriously or fatally in-
jured. Children should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the
transmission gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle (or in a location accessible to chil-
dren), and do not leave the ignition in the
ON or RUN mode. A child could operate
power windows,other controls,or move the
vehicle.
WARNING!
• Be sure the parking brake is fully diseng aged
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. Also be certain to leave
the transmission in PARK. Failure to do so
may allow the vehicle to roll and cause
damage or injury.
CAUTION!
If the Brake System Warning Light remains on
with the parking brake released, a brake sys-
tem malfunction is indicated. Have the brake
system serviced by an authorized dealer im-
mediately.
