The clever "Hold function" in your Mercedes-Benz: What it is and how it works
The "Hold Function" is an intelligent feature in many Mercedes-Benz models that makes the driving experience even more comfortable. In this article, we take a closer look at this function and explain how it can be useful to you in everyday life.
What is the "Hold Function"?
The "Hold function" is an innovative feature that has been specifically developed to improve comfort and safety while driving. This function allows you to stop your vehicle without having to constantly hold down the brake pedal. This is particularly useful, for example, at traffic lights, in traffic jams or when waiting for a friend.
How does the "Hold Function" work?
As soon as you bring your vehicle to a stop and press the brake pedal firmly, the "Hold function" is activated automatically. The system holds the car in position without you having to continue pressing the brake pedal. This gives you more freedom and comfort, especially during longer waiting times.
Advantages of the "Hold function":
-
Relaxed waiting: No more constant braking in waiting situations – the "hold function" does it for you.
-
Prevents fatigue: Especially on longer journeys, the "Hold function" helps to reduce fatigue by relieving the pressure on the brake pedal.
-
Safety on inclines: On sloping roads or inclines, the "Hold function" ensures that your vehicle stays safely in place without rolling back.
