Auto-Hold(Electronic Brake)
BMW 7 Series
Features
• The electronic parking brake is an automatic hand brake that is operated with just one button on the dashboard, providing maximum comfort, requiring almost no effort from the driver.
• This sophisticated brake system provides two additional benefits besides its primary function during parking: Autostop and Hillhold.
• The Autostop function automatically applies the brake to hold the vehicle in place when needed, so the driver does not have to keep a foot on the brake to prevent everyday “creeping” as with traditional automatic transmissions.
• When starting, the driver only needs to press the accelerator pedal, and the brake is automatically released.
• The Hillhold function automatically applies and releases the brake on inclines, preventing the vehicle from rolling backward.
• When the engine is running continuously, the parking brake operation is fully carried out hydraulically through the DSC pump
• On the other hand, when the engine is off, the system operates electronically via the traditional cables connected to the dual‑servo parking brake on the rear axle.
• The system is designed with safety in mind, preventing the driver from carelessly releasing the brake while exiting the vehicle with the engine still running.
The Necessity of Auto Hold (Electronic Parking Brake)
In heavy traffic conditions, drivers become fatigued primarily due to the constant overuse of their right foot.
While driving, the accelerator must be pressed, and even when stopped, the brake must be held.
Although some drivers may use the handbrake in these situations, most still need to focus on pressing the brake pedal with effort.
The electronic parking brake holds the brake while the vehicle is stopped, making it a vehicle convenience feature that allows the driver to drive more comfortably and safely.
