    remove the ebrake cover, you will see the two steel lines that clip onto the back part of the ebrake and use a screwdriver to tighten.

    Never only tighten the one in the cabin. You also need to adjust the one at the hub...

    To do it right.
    1) Jack rear of Wagon up.(block frt.tyres)
    2)Pull e-brake handle up 1 click.
    3)Tighten nut till there's a slight drag on the rear wheel.
    4)Done. :D
    The check: When you normally pull the e-brake it should be 6-10 clicks.

    :oops: I just do it by instincts.Basically when handle gets too hi...adjust.
