Parking brake
The parking brake holds the car stationary,
when the driver's seat is empty, by mechani-
cally locking/blocking two wheels.
Function
A faint electric motor noise can be heard
when the electrical parking brake is being
applied. The noise can also be heard during
the automatic function checking of the park-
ing brake.
If the car is stationary when the parking brake
is applied then it only acts on the rear wheels.
If it is applied when the car is moving then the
normal foot brake is used, i.e. the brake acts
on all four wheels. Brake function changes
over to the rear wheels when the car is almost
stationary.
Low battery voltage
If the battery voltage is too low then the park-
ing brake can neither be released nor applied.
Connect a donor battery if the battery voltage
is too low, see Jump starting with battery
(p. 266).
