How to correctly use the automatic parking function in Volkswagen Tayron?
2 Answers
Tayron's automatic parking function can be activated simply by pressing the AUTOHOLD button located near the electronic parking brake. Below are relevant details about the automatic parking function: 1. Introduction: AUTOHOLD, the English name for automatic parking, is a feature that automatically engages the parking brake. Once activated, for example, when stopping at a traffic light, it eliminates the need to manually pull the handbrake. This function is particularly useful on slopes and during frequent stops and starts. 2. Functionality: In situations requiring short stops, such as at traffic lights, the system automatically brakes the wheels after the vehicle comes to a complete stop to prevent rolling. During uphill starts, the system automatically applies the brakes to prevent backward sliding and releases them once the vehicle starts moving forward. When parking and locking the vehicle, there's no need to engage the handbrake manually as the system will automatically brake the wheels.
When driving my Volkswagen Tayron, I found the auto hold feature incredibly practical—even beginners can easily get the hang of it. After starting the car, simply press the Autohold button to activate it (usually located near the gear shift or center console). When the icon lights up, it means it's ready. When stopping, brake until the car comes to a complete halt, and the system will automatically lock the wheels and release the pedal. As soon as the traffic light turns green, stepping on the accelerator will automatically release the hold, allowing you to drive off smoothly. It’s especially helpful at traffic lights, saving effort by eliminating the need to keep your foot on the brake, which can cause leg fatigue. However, beginners should note not to rely entirely on it on slopes—try it on flat roads first to avoid nervousness. Always check the dashboard display to ensure it’s functioning properly, and if it fails, visit the dealership promptly. Based on daily traffic experience, this feature reduces fatigue, improves efficiency, and makes driving much more relaxed.
