Do I Need to Press the Electronic Handbrake After Parking?

[HaydenDella]

Parking requires pressing the electronic handbrake, usually by first stepping on the foot brake and then pressing the electronic handbrake. For brief stops, such as waiting at a traffic light, it is not necessary to press the electronic handbrake. The electronic parking system replaces traditional parking brake levers, mechanical levers, and control cables with electronic buttons and motor components, and its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake. Below is an introduction to the electronic handbrake: Meaning: The car's electronic handbrake, also known as the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB), is a technology that uses electronic control to achieve parking braking, with the same working principle as a mechanical handbrake. Working Principle: When parking, after the driver presses the electronic button of the electronic parking brake system, the electronic control unit will control the motor integrated in the left and right brake calipers to act, driving the brake caliper pistons to move and generate mechanical clamping force, thereby completing the parking.
