Where is the electronic parking brake located?
1 Answers
The electronic parking brake button is located below the left side of the steering wheel, marked with a "(P)" metal switch. Press it to engage the parking brake, and pull it to release. The electronic parking brake 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. Here are some braking techniques: 1. Emergency braking: Some vehicles are not equipped with ABS, so it is not recommended to press the brake pedal fully at once. Instead, press it twice in succession to prevent wheel lock-up, which could lead to skidding or loss of steering control. 2. Braking in rainy conditions: When driving on wet roads, avoid slamming the brake pedal or turning the steering wheel sharply. After passing through a waterlogged area, it's best to gently press the brake pedal twice to use inertia and friction to remove water from the brake discs, preventing brake failure during sudden braking. 3. Braking while following another vehicle: The main purpose of braking while following another car is to maintain a safe distance. Therefore, press the brake pedal gently. Besides observing the braking of the car in front, also pay attention to the movements of the vehicles ahead of it. If you notice the car in front braking, place your foot on the brake pedal in advance to prepare for sudden braking by the leading vehicle.
