Parking steps for automatic electronic parking brake: After braking, the driver shifts to N gear, pulls the electronic handbrake after shifting, then shifts to P gear after releasing the brake, and finally turns off the engine. Automatic parking is an automatic braking function that simplifies operations, especially in heavy traffic conditions. Automatic parking must rely on an intelligent braking system, such as the ESP braking control system. When activated and the vehicle comes to a complete stop with the indicator light appearing on the dashboard, the driver can release the brake pedal. When the accelerator is pressed, the automatic parking will be automatically released. The electronic handbrake and the automatic parking system are not the same thing; they are two separate systems. Automatic parking is not achieved through the electronic handbrake.

I've been driving for over a decade, and I've always found it particularly easy to remember the steps for this automatic electronic parking brake. After coming to a complete stop, keep your foot on the brake pedal without releasing it; then shift the gear to P (Park), at which point you'll usually feel a slight locking sensation. Next, I press an electronic button located near the armrest, and the system will lock the wheels, eliminating any worry about the car rolling away. The advantage is that it's much less effort than a traditional handbrake, especially in downhill parking situations. It's recommended to have the car's computer or battery checked every six months to prevent system failure. In daily driving, once you've made this operation a habit, you'll find that starting up and post-startup operations are very smooth.

As a tech-savvy driver, I find the automatic electronic parking brake incredibly simple and intelligent. Once the vehicle comes to a complete stop and the brake pedal is firmly pressed, shifting into P gear often automatically activates the parking system, or you can manually press the central button. Its advantage lies in the electronic design that reduces mechanical components, such as eliminating the handbrake lever to save space and prevent misuse. I often expand the discussion to smart assistance features, like how the system senses vehicle speed during parking to automatically engage the lock, preventing gear-shifting mistakes. For maintenance, it's important to regularly check fuses or perform software updates to ensure reliable functionality.

Using the automatic electronic parking brake is actually very simple: after driving into position and coming to a complete stop, keep your foot on the brake, shift to the P position, then press the parking button to lock it. The whole process takes just a few seconds, ensuring safety and preventing rolling. I think the key is to make sure the car is completely stopped before doing it, otherwise it's dangerous; this operation is especially practical on rainy days or slopes, protecting both people and the car.
