Depress <strong>the</strong> pedal. The "PARK BRAKE"<br />
(in Canada "P") indicator lamp in <strong>the</strong> instrument<br />
cluster comes on when <strong>the</strong> ignition<br />
key is in position 2.<br />

To release <strong>the</strong> brake, pull <strong>the</strong> handle.<br />
Please remember that <strong>the</strong> brakes disengage<br />
immediately.<br />
The parking brake is primarily designed<br />
to prevent <strong>the</strong> <strong>vehicle</strong> from rolling while<br />
parked, and operates against <strong>the</strong> rear<br />
wheels.<br />
If, in exceptional circumstances, it<br />
should be necessary to engage<br />
<strong>the</strong> parking brake while <strong>the</strong> <strong>vehicle</strong> is in<br />
motion, depress <strong>the</strong> pedal cautiously<br />
and slowly while continuing to pull on<br />
<strong>the</strong> release handle.<br />
Excessive pressure on <strong>the</strong> pedal can<br />
lead to overbraking and loss of traction<br />
at <strong>the</strong> rear.<br />
The brake lamps do not come on when<br />
<strong>the</strong> parking brake is applied.<<br />
You can prevent corrosion from <strong>for</strong>ming<br />
on <strong>the</strong> separate parking brake drums<br />
with an occasional gentle application of<br />
<strong>the</strong> parking brake when stopping at<br />
traffic lights.<br />
