How to Properly Use the Auto Hold Function in Wildlander?
3 Answers
Fasten your seatbelt and activate the auto function while driving. When the vehicle comes to a complete stop during driving. You can release the brake pedal, and the parking indicator will appear on the instrument panel. The vehicle will remain stationary, and the gear can be kept in D or N position. Gently press the accelerator pedal to release the brake. Remember to shift to P gear and engage the parking brake when exiting the vehicle.
The Auto Hold feature in the Wildlander is incredibly effortless to use! After getting in, fastening your seatbelt, and starting the engine, simply press the AUTO HOLD button on the center console—when the light turns on, it's activated. At traffic lights, once the car comes to a complete stop, a green parking symbol will appear on the dashboard, allowing you to take your foot off the brake without needing to keep it pressed. Ready to move again? Just lightly tap the accelerator, and the hold will automatically release, letting the car move smoothly. This function is especially handy during traffic jams or on uphill roads—no more stomping on the gas to prevent rolling back during hill starts. Just remember not to shift into P (Park) during temporary stops, as the engine will shut off; it's designed for brief pauses only.
I'm used to turning on the auto-hold function as soon as I get in the car. The steps are super simple: After starting the engine, first fasten the seatbelt (this step is crucial), then press the gray AUTO HOLD button near the gear lever. When stopping at a red light, you'll hear a beep and see a green parking indicator light up on the dashboard, then you can relax your foot. It's worth noting that it's recommended to turn off this function when reversing, otherwise you'll need to press the accelerator to release it every time you stop during reversing, and poor control may cause the car to lurch. Also, use it cautiously on slippery roads during rainy or snowy days, as insufficient tire grip when the system releases may cause skidding.
