Brakes
ELECTRONIC BRAKE DISTRIBUTION
(EBD)
EPB MANUAL USE
EBD controls the balance of braking forces
supplied to the front and rear wheels, in order
to maintain maximum braking efficiency.
If the vehicle has a light load (only the driver in
the vehicle for example), EBD will reduce the
braking force applied to the rear wheels. If the
vehicle is heavily laden, EBD will allow greater
braking force to the rear wheels.
The red brake warning lamp
illuminates briefly when the
ignition is turned on.
A fault with the EBD system is indicated by the
red brake warning indicator illuminating and an
associated warning message. Gently and safely
stop the vehicle and seek qualified assistance.
1. To apply the parking brake, with the vehicle
stationary, pull up the lever and release it.
The parking brake warning
lamp will illuminate. It is
important to confirm that the
lamp is continuously illuminated (not
flashing), as this indicates the brake has
been correctly applied.
ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE (EPB)
The parking brake operates on the rear
wheels. Therefore, secure parking of
the vehicle is dependent on being on a
hard and stable surface.
If the lever is operated when the vehicle
speed is less than 3km/h (2mph) the
vehicle will be brought to an abrupt stop.
The stop lamps will not be illuminated.
Do not rely on the parking brake to
operate effectively, if the rear wheels
have been immersed in mud or water.
Note: If the vehicle is used in severe off-road
conditions (e.g. wading, deep mud, etc.),
additional maintenance and adjustment of the
parking brake will be required. Consult your
Land Rover Dealer/Authorised Repairer.
If a fault is detected the warning lamp will
flash and a PARKBRAKE message will be
displayed in the message centre.
Note: The red brake warning indicator will
continue to be illuminated for at least ten
seconds after the ignition has been turned
off.
2.
To release the parking brake, press the
brake pedal and press down on the EPB
lever.
