Brake Press Indicators

Brake Press

Depress Brake PedalThese are Brake Press Indicators symbols. They is similar to other symbols asking for the brake pedal to pressed, for shifting for instance. However, here the symbols are used for Electric Park Brake and Automatic Brake Hold systems, where the brake pedal must be stepped on before either system can be engaged.

  • Before continuing, are you sure this is your symbol?? If yes, then read on below.
  • Otherwise, you can return to our main Picture Symbols page and scan again!

The first symbol shows an accelerator pedal and a brake pedal with an arrow pointing to the brake pedal. A similar symbol with three pedals is used in vehicles with manual transmissions. The third pedal is the clutch.

The second symbol is simply a foot or shoe shown above a pedal.

If the symbol is flashing, it indicates an issue with the systems and neither the Electric Park Brake or Automatic Brake Hold can be engaged, or will be disengaged.
