Abstract
A method for operating a motor vehicle includes detecting an operative state of the motor vehicle. The method further includes shifting the parking brake unit of the parking brake from a rest state into a predetermined operative state in response to the detected operative state of the motor vehicle. The motor vehicle includes a service brake and a parking brake. The service brake of the motor vehicle is activated by a pressure generator. The parking brake of the motor vehicle is activated by a parking brake unit. The motor vehicle has an autonomous operating mode and/or a partially autonomous operating mode that can be activated. The parking brake is configured to, in the predetermined operative state, produce a no braking effect and/or a lower braking effect compared to a full activation of the parking brake.
