How to Use the Handbrake?
1 Answers
Generally, when waiting for a traffic signal on a flat road, pulling the handbrake 2-3 notches is sufficient. Avoid pulling the handbrake too high, as this can make it difficult to release. Gently and smoothly pull up the handbrake, and you should clearly hear the sound of each notch engaging. When pulling the handbrake, the button on the handbrake head will move back and forth, as there is a spring inside applying force. This mechanism is designed to prolong the lifespan of the spring and the small notches. Release the handbrake after starting the car. If you forget to release the handbrake and only realize it after driving for a while, this will significantly increase wear on the handbrake.
