How to use the auto hold button on Lavida Plus?
2 Answers
Usage method of the auto hold button on Lavida Plus: Press the auto hold button in the car to activate it. At this time, there is no need to step on the brake pedal or pull the handbrake. The system will automatically brake the vehicle. When the accelerator pedal is pressed, the system will automatically release. The following are the functions of the auto hold system: 1. When encountering situations such as traffic lights that require a short stop, the system will automatically brake the wheels after the vehicle stops to prevent rolling. 2. When starting on an uphill slope, the system will automatically brake to prevent rolling back. After starting, the system will automatically release the wheels and move forward directly. 3. When parking and locking, there is no need to pull the handbrake. The system will automatically brake the wheels at this time, but this is only available in some models.
The Auto Hold button on the Lavida Plus is really a great helper—I can't drive without it now. The button is usually located near the center console, marked with a car and arrow symbol. Using it is simple: when you brake to a complete stop (like at a traffic light), just press the button lightly, and a green indicator on the dashboard will light up, confirming it's activated. You can then release the foot brake, and the car won't roll forward, giving your foot a rest. When the light turns green, a gentle press on the accelerator automatically releases the hold, and the car moves smoothly. This feature is especially useful in city traffic—no need to keep pressing the brake, reducing fatigue on long drives. Just a heads-up: don’t rely too much on it for hill starts. Once, on a slight slope, I didn’t pay attention, and the car almost rolled back, so now I always check if the indicator is on before releasing the brake. Once you get used to it, it’s very safe—new drivers can master it after a few tries.
