MAINTENANCE MODE <VEHICLES WITH ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE>


When the system enters the maintenance mode, the electric parking brake will be released completely. Then you can push back the brake piston to replace the rear brake pad or the rear disc brake rotor. You can select the maintenance mode by operating the electric parking brake switch.


How to select the maintenance mode


1.Raise the vehicle using a jack and support the specified points with a rigid rack.
2.Depress the brake pedal.
3.Move the selector lever to "P" position, and turn on the ignition switch (but do not start the engine).
4.
caution Do not operate the electric parking brake switch too quickly (wait for at least two seconds by the next switch operation). If yes, the ECU can not recognise the switch operation. This may cause the indicator lamp or the warning lamp not to flash.
Apply and release the parking brake at least ten times by operating the electric parking brake switch.
5.The brake warning lamp (red) and the electric parking brake switch indicator lamp should flash.
note The multi-information display should show "PARKING BRAKE TEMPORARILY NOT AVAILABLE".
6.Operate the electric parking brake switch once to release the parking brake.
7.Operate the brake auto hold switch at least 10 times within seven seconds. Then operate the electric parking brake switch once to release the parking brake.
8.After the system enters the maintenance mode, the electric parking brake warning lamp (yellow) will stay on (do not flash anymore).
note
  • The multi-information display should show "PARKING BRAKE SERVICE REQUIRED".
  • Once the system has entered the maintenance mode, the electric parking brake is released completely.
9.
caution
  • Do not operate the electric parking brake switch to apply the parking brake. If yes, the maintenance mode will be cancelled.
  • When the electric parking brake switch is pulled up even with the ignition switch OFF, the maintenance mode will be cancelled.
Turn off the ignition switch.
10.Release the brake pedal.
11.Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

How to resume normal operation mode
