matically applied if the engine is stopped with-
out using the ignition switch (for example, by
engine stalling). In such a case, you have to
apply the parking brake manually.

light

position, depress the brake pedal and push the
switch down

ing brake indicator light
goes out. For
additional information, see “Warning lights,
indicator lights and audible reminders” (P.2-12).

. A buzzer will sound if the vehicle is driven
without releasing the parking brake. See
“Audible reminders” (P.2-20).
. While the electronic parking brake is
applied or released, an operating sound
is heard from the lower side of the rear
seat. This is normal and does not indicate
a malfunction.
. When the electronic parking brake is
frequently applied and released in a short
period of time, the parking brake may not

brake switch again after waiting approxi-

When towing a trailer (for Australia, New

GUID-D104E447-6887-4FAC-B2E9-1062DDCEF362
Depending on the weight of the vehicle and
trailer and the steepness of the slope, there
may be a tendency for the vehicle to move
backwards when starting from a standstill.
When this occurs, you can use the parking
brake switch in the same way as a conven-
tional lever type parking brake.
Before starting on sloping roads when towing a
trailer, be sure to read the following to prevent
the vehicle from moving backward uninten-
tionally.
1. Pull and hold the parking brake switch
while depressing the accelerator pedal
and engaging the clutch (MT models).
2. Release the parking brake switch as soon
as the engine is delivering enough torque
to the wheels.
