What is the correct way to use the handbrake?
1 Answers
The correct method for operating the handbrake is as follows: 1. Press the handbrake button while pulling the handbrake. When pulling the handbrake, the button on the handbrake lever will move back and forth due to the spring inside. To prolong the lifespan of the spring and the button, it's best to press the button with the pad of your thumb while pulling the handbrake. This method is quieter than pulling the handbrake directly and better protects the handbrake. 2. Apply gentle force when pulling the handbrake. Avoid yanking the handbrake abruptly, as this can damage it over time. The correct approach is to pull the handbrake smoothly and gently, ensuring you can clearly hear the clicking sound of the handbrake engaging.
