Do You Need to Press the Handbrake Button?

[RiverMarie]

When pulling the handbrake, it is not necessary to press the handbrake button, but the button should be pressed when releasing the handbrake. Function of the handbrake button: The handbrake button is called the parking brake lock button, which prevents accidental release of the parking brake. Therefore, the correct method is not to press the button when pulling the parking brake, but to press the button when releasing the parking brake. Without pressing the button, the brake cannot be released. The handbrake is technically called the parking brake, which mainly controls the rear wheels—in simple terms, it brakes the rear wheels. It is generally used when parking on flat roads or slopes. Its structure is quite simple, consisting mainly of a handle and a button. Principle of the handbrake: The principle of the handbrake is based on the lever mechanism, where a steel cable activates the braking device of the rear wheels. The key components are the locking tooth and gear, which automatically engage with each other.
