The new electronic parking brake with hold function combines easier handling and greater safety. It is activated automatically on switching off the engine, but can also be switched on and off using the lever in the cockpit. The integrated HOLD function is activated when the vehicle is at a standstill simply by pressing the brake pedal firmly, for example at a red traffic light or on an uphill gradient. It is released as soon as the accelerator is pressed again. This assists in avoiding the danger of the vehicle rolling back when taking off on an uphill gradient.
