An audible signal will sound if the parking brake is applied when the vehicle is being driven. If the vehicle must be parked while the parking brake is not functioning properly:
- Put the gear selector in P.
- If the vehicle is pointing uphill, turn the front wheels so that they point away from the curb.
- If the vehicle is pointing downhill, turn the front wheels so that they point toward the curb.
- Put the gear selector in P.
Low battery charge level
If the battery is discharged, the parking brake cannot be operated. Connect an auxiliary battery to the vehicle.
Replacing brake pads
The rear brake pads have to be replaced by a trained and authorized Volvo service technician due to the design of the electric parking brake.
