Parking brake button
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2017 BMW X3, 2016 BMW X3, 2015 BMW X3, 2014 BMW X3, and 2013 BMW X3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The parking brake button is located in the center console behind the gear selector switch (GWS). The design of the parking brake button is based on the operating logic of a parking brake:
- Pull parking brake button upwards: the parking brake is activated
- Pull parking brake button downwards: the parking brake is deactivated
The status "engaged" is indicated by a red LED in the parking brake button as well as by the parking brake indicator light in the instrument panel. If the parking brake of the vehicle has already been engaged, pulling the parking brake button again has no effect.
