Where is the brake button of Mercedes-Benz?

Mercedes-Benz generally has C-class or higher models equipped with a universal electronic parking brake. The symbol (P) can be found on the left side of the steering wheel or in front of the center console (the position varies depending on the model). For general Mercedes-Benz vehicles, there is also a mechanical brake, usually located near the left foot, commonly known as the "foot brake". The following is relevant information: 1. Two types of parking brakes: There are two types of parking brakes for motor vehicles. The first type is the traditional mechanical parking brake, and the second type is the electronic parking brake. The electronic parking brake uses electronic components and is very convenient to use, controlled by a switch. Combined with the automatic parking system, it can automatically engage the parking brake, effectively preventing the vehicle from rolling, making it an excellent configuration. 2. Working principle of the parking brake: The professional term for the parking brake is the auxiliary brake. Unlike the principle of the main brake, it uses a steel wire cable connected to the rear brake shoes to brake the vehicle. Long-term use of the parking brake will cause the steel wire to undergo plastic deformation. Since this deformation is irreversible, long-term use will reduce its effectiveness, and the travel of the parking brake will also increase. The red exclamation mark on the dashboard is a reminder to the driver that the parking brake has been engaged, indicating that the auxiliary brake is working. Pulling the parking brake upwards engages the parking brake (vehicle parking brake), and pushing it downwards releases the parking brake. Therefore, pull up when parking, and press down when you want to move.
