Is the electronic parking brake activated by pushing down or pulling up?
1 Answers
Electronic parking brake is activated by pulling up, and pushing down turns it off. The electronic parking brake is a technology that uses electronic control to achieve parking braking. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, both achieving parking braking control through the friction generated between the brake disc and the brake pads. The only difference is that the control method has changed from the previous mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. The electronic parking brake has evolved from the basic parking function to include the automatic parking function AUTOHOLD. The application of AUTOHOLD automatic parking technology allows drivers to avoid prolonged braking when the vehicle stops. With the automatic electronic parking brake activated, unnecessary vehicle sliding can be prevented.
