The concept
Your BMW is equipped with an electromechan-
ical parking brake that is set and released with a
button.
The parking brake is primarily intended to pre-
vent the vehicle from rolling while parked.
With the engine stopped, the parking brake acts
on the rear wheels via an electromechanical
system. When the engine is running, the park-
ing brake acts on the disc brakes of the front
and rear wheels via the brake hydraulics.
