How to use the hold button on Excelle?
2 Answers
Usage method of the Excelle hold button: Press the HOLD switch, and the hold mode indicator light on the dashboard will illuminate. Relevant information about the hold button on the car key is as follows: Introduction: Press and hold the hold button for a few seconds to open the trunk, avoiding the danger of opening the trunk by pressing the hold button during driving or other conditions, hence the name 'hold'. Other functions: The hold button is not a trunk opening button, but a remote engine start button. Within a remote distance, press and hold for 2 to 3 seconds, and the car will start automatically. This function can be used to adjust the interior temperature in advance during winter and summer.
As a seasoned driver with ten years of experience, I remember how useful the HOLD button was during my mountain drive last winter. Primarily designed to prevent the transmission from automatically upshifting, it keeps the car in the current gear when pressed on slopes or slippery roads, avoiding frequent gear shifts and skidding. Operation is straightforward: while driving, slow down to between 20-30 km/h and press the HOLD button on the dashboard—the illuminated icon indicates activation. Press it again to deactivate. Avoid using this button at high speeds to prevent excessive transmission wear. It's particularly recommended during snowy conditions or when towing, as it enhances traction and stability. If you haven't tried it before, practice in an open area a few times to get familiar with the feel before using it on the road for safer driving.
