Parking Brake System: Description and Operation

The parking brake system is cable-actuated and controlled by an independent hand-operated parking brake control. To apply parking brake, pull parking brake control upward as far as possible.
The parking brake system is an AUTO-ADJUST system. The spring in the parking brake control continuously adjusts the cable tension in the system.

A parking brake warning indicator:
- is located in the instrument panel.
- illuminates to signal the driver the parking brake is applied or to signal a low fluid condition.
- remains lit when a brake malfunction has occurred.
