Does the Electronic Parking Brake Automatically Release When Starting?
1 Answers
The electronic parking brake does not automatically release when starting; the driver needs to manually release it. The correct method to use the electronic parking brake is: 1. Press the brake pedal to bring the vehicle to a complete stop; 2. Shift the gear into P (Park) position; 3. Press the electronic parking brake function button to engage the parking brake; 4. Shift the gear into D (Drive) position; 5. Press the accelerator pedal; 6. Press the electronic parking brake release button to disengage the electronic parking brake and start the vehicle. The working principle of the electronic parking brake involves an electronic button control mechanism that utilizes the friction between the brake disc and brake pads to achieve parking brake control. The functions of the parking brake are: 1. To provide braking when parking on flat or inclined surfaces; 2. To prevent the vehicle from moving unintentionally when unattended, thereby avoiding traffic accidents.
