Where is the handbrake located in an automatic transmission car?
1 Answers
Automatic transmission handbrake positions: 1. The traditional mechanical handbrake is located next to the gear lever. Pulling it upwards engages the brake. To release it, first lift slightly, then press the button on top with your thumb while lowering the handbrake; 2. The electronic handbrake is also next to the gear lever, appearing as a button with a 'P' inside a circle. Pressing down engages it, while pulling up releases it; 3. Foot-operated handbrakes are located to the left of the brake pedal, found in models like the Buick GL8, Honda Odyssey, Volvo S80, and Audi Q7. Pressing once engages it, and pressing again releases it; 4. Special handbrakes, such as those in Volvo, feature a pull handle on the lower left side of the steering wheel. After engaging the foot brake, the handle must be pulled to release it.
