Where is the handbrake on a Mercedes-Benz and how to operate it?
1 Answers
Taking the new Mercedes-Benz E300 as an example, there are two methods to engage the handbrake. One is through the handbrake switch located below the light switch on the left side of the instrument panel – pulling it activates the parking brake. The other method is automatic control by the vehicle: when the car comes to a complete stop and the brake pedal is pressed while shifting into P gear, the parking brake will engage automatically. Additional information: 1. Exterior: The front fascia design is identical to the imported version. The split high-beam and low-beam headlights feature sharp lines, creating an overall youthful and dynamic effect. The LED light cluster below the front bumper further accentuates its stylish appearance. 2. Maintenance: The Mercedes-Benz E-Class comes with a 2-year unlimited mileage warranty. The first maintenance is due at 10,000 km and is at the owner's expense. Subsequent maintenance intervals are every 10,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first. Mercedes-Benz demonstrates its luxury car characteristics in maintenance as well, with costs slightly higher compared to other brands in the same class. The simplest minor maintenance costs approximately 1,700 RMB, significantly higher than comparable models, which might be another major drawback affecting its sales.
