The operation method of the new Magotan electronic parking brake is as follows: 1. Depress the brake pedal, start the ignition, and press the electronic parking brake button; 2. Shift from P gear to other gears; 3. Stop and depress the brake pedal; 4. Shift into P gear, then press the electronic parking brake button again. The electronic parking brake is a technology that achieves parking braking through electronic control. The Magotan is a 4-door, 5-seater mid-size car under FAW-Volkswagen. Taking the 2020 Magotan as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4865mm, width 1832mm, height 1471mm, wheelbase 2871mm, and curb weight 1445kg.
When driving the Magotan, I believe the primary focus regarding the use of the electronic parking brake is on safety procedures. After parking, I promptly press the P button next to the dashboard, and the illuminated light indicates that the parking brake is activated, preventing the vehicle from rolling. To release it, I must firmly press the brake pedal and hold the button for a few seconds until the light goes off, ensuring the operation is done with the ignition on. When parking on a slope, I first press the brake pedal firmly before pressing the button for added security. After turning off the engine, it usually locks automatically, eliminating the risk of forgetting to engage the parking brake. As a daily user, I appreciate the convenience of the electronic system but remind everyone never to accidentally press the button while driving. Regular checks of brake components, such as sensors and wiring, are essential to prevent malfunctions that could compromise safety. Overall, the electronic parking brake is both effortless and reliable, making it an indispensable part of modern driving.
