OUTLINE
An electric parking brake system is used.
This system has a manual function, which allows the parking brake to be operated by the driver's switch operation, and an auto function, which allows the parking brake to be operated in conjunction with the shift lever position.
This system allows the parking brake to be operated by the actuator, and not only can operating force be reduced, but an improvement in convenience is achieved by the use of the auto function.
A function which locks the parking brake in conjunction with the brake hold function is provided. For details, see the BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS.
