Before repair work begins on the rear axle wheel brakes of the vehicle models mentioned above, the electric parking brake must be emergency-released or deactivated.
Carry out the following steps for emergency release:
· To do this, press the release button and actuate the release pushbutton switch
· Pull hard on the emergency release (yellow lever)
· The slackening of the cables produces an audible noise
· Avoid placing mechanical loads on the cables with your tools
Note: The emergency release/the control element of the electric parking brake will automatically reset to its working position the next time the EPB switch is pressed.
