Is the Mercedes HOLD function the same as shifting to N gear?
1 Answers
Mercedes HOLD function is not the same as shifting to N gear. The following is a related introduction about N gear: 1. Function: N gear is mainly used during startup, towing, or temporary parking. N position refers to neutral gear. To prevent the vehicle from rolling on a slope, you must step on the brake when shifting to neutral. When the lever is placed in "N" gear, the power between the engine and the transmission has been cut off and separated. For brief stops, you can place the lever in this gear and pull out the handbrake lever, allowing your right foot to move away from the brake pedal for a short rest. 2. Usage: Short-term parking: When the vehicle needs to be temporarily parked for a short time, such as waiting briefly for someone, you can use N gear for parking. However, if the waiting time is too long, it is recommended to turn off the engine; Towing during a breakdown: For short distances, such as a few kilometers, towing with the vehicle in N gear is allowed. For longer distances, a flatbed tow truck must be used; Startup and parking: N gear can also be effectively used during startup and parking. For example, starting from N gear and shifting to D gear is much better than starting from P gear and shifting to N gear through R gear.
