The "Hold" function on Mercedes cars

Model: Mercedes Mercedes Various
Part: Onboard computer

Many Mercedes are equipped with a very useful accessory called simply "Hold". What does it mean? If we are in traffic, it saves us the hassle of keeping our foot continuously pressed on the brake pedal. In fact, in this case it will be enough to press the brake pedal with a certain progression, until a light with the word "hold" appears on the display. At this point, we can release the brake and the car will still hold the brakes. When we decide to start again, it will be enough to press the accelerator pedal to start without any problem.
