– Use tire stops under the tires
to prevent the vehicle from
moving.
. Never drive with the parki ng
brake applied. Doing so will
cause unnecessary wear on the
brake linings. Before driving off,
always make sure that the park-
ing brake has been released and
the brake system warning light
has turned off.
Your vehicle is equipped with an electronic
parking brake. You can apply/release the
parking brake by operating the parking
brake switch.
To apply: Depress the brake pedal and
pull up the parking brake switch.
To release: Press the parking brake
switch firmly while the ignition switch is in
the “ON” position and the brake pedal is
depressed.
When the parking brake is applied while
the ignition switch is in the “ON” position,
the electronic parking brake indicator light
and the indicator light on the parking brake
switch illuminate. Refer to “Brake system
warning light” F3-21.
NOTE
. If you press the parking brake switch
under the following conditions, the
parking brake will not be released.
– The ignition switch is in the
“ACC” or “LOCK”/“OFF” position.
– You are not depressing the brake
pedal.
. The electronic parking brake system
uses motors to apply the parking brake.
Therefore, operating sounds from the
motors will be heard when applying or
releasing the parking brake. Make sure
that the motor sounds are heard when
applying or releasing the parking
brake.
. If you operate the parking brake
switch under the following conditions,
a chirp will sound and the electronic
parking brake indicator light will flash.
– when the electronic parking
brake system has a malfunction
– when the electronic parking
brake operation is prohibited tem-
porarily
. When you cannot release the park-
ing brake due to, for example, a system
malfunction, contact your SUBARU
dealer and have your SUBARU dealer
release the parking brake.
. If you stop operating the electronic
parking brake switch midway or oper-
ate extremely slowly, the system may
detect an error and turn on the brake
system warning light. However, this
does not indicate a malfunction if the
brake system warning light turns off
after operating the switch.
. When the electronic parking brake
has not been used for a long period of
time, the electronic parking brake may
operate automatically after the ignition
switch is turned to the “LOCK”/“OFF”
position. This occurs due to checking
the proper operation of the electronic
parking brake and does not indicate a
malfunction.
. If you cannot release the electronic
parking brake due to the switch mal-
function, refer to the instructions de-
scribed in “Automatic release function
by accelerator pedal” F7-45.
After activating the electronic parking
brake, you may hear a short sound
several minutes after the electronic
parking brake indicator light illumi-
nates as the system confirms proper
engagement. This sound is different
from the apply and release sound.
This can occur:
– If the brakes are extremely hot.
– If the car is parked on a steep
incline.
