NOTE: This procedure is performed if new parking brake shoes, new rear brake rotors have been installed, or if the vehicle has been driven in deep mud (not water) for more than 50 miles.
1. Perform the parking brake shoe bedding procedure.
2.
NOTE: The Electronic Parking Brake mode called 'Service Bedding-in Procedure mode' will remain enabled until the end of the current ignition cycle or until the vehicle speed exceeds 31 mph (50 km/h). If the procedure needs to be recalled, repeat all steps required to enable the procedure.
To enable 'Service Lapping Mode':
- Start the engine and let it run.
- Within 10 seconds, press and release the foot brake pedal 3 times, leaving it pressed after the third press.
- Within 10 seconds, turn the electronic parking brake switch on and off 4 times and 3 times.
3. After turning on the 'Service grinding mode', you can begin grinding the pads of the electronic parking brake. To do this, you need to perform 10 braking actions in a row at a speed of 30-35 km / h (19-22 mph) with intervals of 500 m (547 yards) between stops to allow the brakes to cool. Braking is carried out using the electronic parking brake switch.
- The braking force of the electronic parking brake will increase to the dynamic maximum as long as the switch is held in the on position.
- Releasing the switch to the NEUTRAL or OFF position will release the electronic parking brake.
- The electronic parking brake MUST be allowed to cool between applications. This can be accomplished by driving without braking at 19 mph (30 km/h) for 500 meters (547 yards), or stopping for 1 minute between applications.
