Can the car be pushed when the handbrake is engaged?

The car cannot be pushed when the handbrake is engaged. Try to hold the handbrake button while engaging it: When pulling the handbrake, the button on the handbrake lever will move back and forth. There is a spring inside the handbrake that exerts force. To prolong the lifespan of the spring and the button, it is best to press the button with the thumb pad while pulling the handbrake. This method is quieter than pulling the handbrake directly and better protects the handbrake. Apply gentle force when pulling the handbrake: When engaging the handbrake, avoid yanking it abruptly, as this can damage the handbrake over time. The correct method is to pull the handbrake gently and smoothly, allowing you to hear the distinct clicks of the handbrake engaging.
