the vehicle is left unsecured. If the automatic transmis-

sion is not in PARK, the seat belt is unbuckled, the driver

door is open, the vehicle is at a standstill, and there is no

attempt to depress the brake pedal or accelerator pedal,

the park brake will automatically engage to prevent the

vehicle from rolling.

SafeHold can be temporarily bypassed by pressing the

Electric Park Brake Switch to the release position while

the driver door is open. Once manually bypassed, Safe-

Hold will be enabled again once the vehicle reaches

12 mph (20 km/h) or the ignition is cycled to the OFF

position and back to ON again.

Brake Service Mode

We recommend having your brakes serviced by your

authorized dealer. You should only make repairs for

which you have the knowledge and the right equipment.

You should only enter Brake Service Mode during brake

service.

When servicing your rear brakes, it may be necessary for

you or your technician push the rear piston into the rear

caliper bore. With the Electric Park Brake system, this can

only be done after retracting the Electric Park Brake

actuator. Fortunately, actuator retraction can be done

easily by entering the Brake Service Mode through EVIC

(Electronic Vehicle Information Center), Driver Informa-

tion Display (DID) or the Uconnect Settings in your

vehicle. This menu based system will guide you through

the steps necessary to retract the EPB actuator in order to

perform rear brake service.

Service Mode has requirements that must be met in order

to be activated:

• The vehicle must be at a standstill.

• The park brake must be unapplied.

• The transmission must be in PARK or NEUTRAL.
