1 Answers
To release the parking brake in an automatic transmission car, follow these steps: 1. After starting the engine, when the driver's side door is closed and the vehicle begins to move, the parking brake will automatically release; 2. With the ignition switch turned on or the engine running, press the brake pedal, first pull the handle backward while pressing the lock button at the end of the handle, then push the handle all the way down to manually release the parking brake. The parking brake, also known as the handbrake or the parking gear in automatic transmission cars, does not require shifting gears while driving. In contrast, manual transmission cars require timely gear shifting to adjust vehicle speed and engine torque changes.
