Parking Brake Calibration
The parking brake system must be calibrated whenever the battery has been disconnected or has been in a state of discharge, or repairs have been carried out to the rear service or parking brake system.

NOTE: If new rear brake pads have been installed, pressure must be applied to the brake pedal a minimum of five times prior to calibration of the parking brake system.

To calibrate the parking brake system:

1. Place gear selector lever in 'P' Park position.
2. Release parking brake cable tension to service position.

5. To release the parking brake, apply and hold the footbrake then release and press down the parking brake switch.
