Please refer to your owner's manual and the instructions enclosed with this letter. When applying the handbrake pull the lever up fully without touching the release button.
So you need to let the handbrake rattle when you engage it? Quite opposite of what I always learned.

Need to keep this in mind when the 1st service is done though, so it can be changed.
