1 Answers
The electronic handbrake of the Mercedes-Benz E200 is automatically released. Electronic Handbrake: The electronic handbrake is a technology that achieves parking braking through electronic control. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, both achieving parking control through the friction generated between the brake disc and brake pads, except that the control method has changed from the previous mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. The electronic handbrake is also known as the electronic parking brake system. The Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) integrates the temporary braking during driving with the long-term braking after parking, and realizes parking braking through electronic control. The electronic handbrake extends from the basic parking function to the automatic parking function AUTOHOLD. The application of the AUTOHOLD automatic parking technology eliminates the need for drivers to brake for a long time when the vehicle stops. When the automatic electronic parking brake is activated, unnecessary sliding of the vehicle can be avoided. Location of the Handbrake in Mercedes-Benz E200: All Mercedes-Benz E-Class models use a foot brake, located to the left of the brake pedal. Generally, vehicles have two types of parking brakes: mechanical and electronic. Mechanical brakes also come in two types: handbrake and foot brake. Handbrakes and foot brakes each have two variations.
