How to Use the Auto Hold Function in Sagitar?

[Hillary]

Sagitar's Auto Hold function can be correctly used as follows: 1. With the seatbelt fastened and doors properly closed, simply press the AUTOHOLD button when needed. When stopping the vehicle by pressing the brake pedal, the Auto Hold will activate automatically. 2. To start moving again, shift gears, release the clutch while simultaneously pressing the accelerator pedal, and the Auto Hold function will deactivate automatically. Additional Information: Auto Hold, also known as the vehicle's AUTOHOLD function, is typically located behind the electronic parking brake. Moreover, the electronic parking brake and AUTOHOLD are interconnected, and sometimes the electronic parking brake may intervene when using AUTOHOLD. However, Auto Hold does not rely on the electronic parking brake to achieve parking brake functionality; it depends on an intelligent braking system. The vehicle must be equipped with a brake control system like ESP for this feature to work. This is because Auto Hold is essentially an extension of the ESP function, controlled by ESP components. For brief stops such as waiting at traffic lights where quick restart is anticipated, the parking brake is managed by the ESP controlling the brakes. For longer stops, the electronic parking brake will intervene to apply the brake. When you press the brake pedal to stop, the system evaluates the driving conditions and applies an appropriate braking force to bring the vehicle to a halt. When you intend to move forward, the electronic system detects the depth of accelerator pedal press to determine whether to release the brake.

I really enjoy using the Sagitar's auto-hold function while driving, it's super convenient. After getting in the car and starting the engine, you'll see an A-shaped icon button displayed on the dashboard near the steering wheel, usually located by the gear shift or in the central control area. Just press it to activate. When you come to a complete stop at a red light or on a steep slope, the car automatically holds its position without needing to keep your foot on the brake. You can relax your foot and enjoy music without worrying about rolling back. To start moving again, just gently press the accelerator to release it. At first, I wasn't quite used to it, but after driving more, it became second nature—especially during stop-and-go traffic on commutes. Remember to regularly check your car's condition to ensure the system works properly. Overall, it's extremely practical and easy to use with just a few simple steps.

I personally find the auto hold feature in the Sagitar incredibly useful, and the operation isn't complicated at all. After starting the car, locate the small button with an 'A' symbol and press it to illuminate it—usually, the screen will flash a small notification. When you come to a stop and firmly press the brake, the car automatically locks the wheels, allowing you to take your foot off the pedal without worry. A light tap on the accelerator releases it when you're ready to go, making it especially handy for hills or long drives. I often use it when driving to the supermarket—no need to shift into P when waiting for a parking spot, saving time. However, if the system malfunctions, don't push your luck; get the battery checked. Overall, this feature makes driving easier and safer—just try it, and you'll understand.

I've used the auto-hold feature on the Sagitar, and it's quite user-friendly. First, start the car, locate the button, and press it to activate. When the vehicle comes to a complete stop, it automatically maintains the braking state. Press the accelerator to continue driving. The benefits include multiple layers of safety, preventing rollback. It makes daily commutes hassle-free and hill starts smoother. Remember to keep the button clean and free from dust.

I find the auto hold feature quite practical when driving the Sagitar, with just a few simple operations. After starting the vehicle, press the button marked 'A' to activate the function. When coming to a complete stop, the system locks the wheels to prevent rolling back on slopes. Press the accelerator to continue driving. This is especially safe on inclined roads, reducing the risk of accidents. I'm used to using it for short trips to avoid frequent braking. If the button doesn't respond, it might be a power issue—check the manual. You'll get the hang of it after using it a few times.

I enjoy using the Sagitar's auto-hold function while driving, which is also easy for beginners to operate. The process involves starting the car and pressing the button to activate the system marked with an 'A'. The car automatically brakes when stopped. You can rest your foot without any issues, and a light press on the accelerator releases it when moving. It's particularly handy on steep slopes to prevent rolling back. I recommend trying it at low speeds first to get used to the feel and not relying too much on prolonged parking holds. After using it for a while, you'll find it's a practical tool that enhances the driving experience.
