Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for operating an electro-pneumatic parking brake facility of a vehicle-trailer combination which consists of a towing vehicle and a trailer vehicle, in which method, after a parking process and once it has been determined that the vehicle-trailer combination has stopped, a trailer check function is activated which makes it possible to examine whether, if the braking effect of the trailer vehicle decreases, the vehicle-trailer combination can be held solely by the braking effect of a parking brake of the towing vehicle. According to the invention, if a vehicle-trailer combination has been braked automatically by an automatic parking function, the trailer check function is performed automatically.
