The present invention discloses a brake system with electronic brake force distribution which includes additional criteria of deactivation of the electronic brake force distribution. Deactivation of the electronic brake force distribution is intended to occur, on the one hand, if a pressure increase phase lasts longer than a defined time ( ). On the other hand, another criterion of deactivation ( ) is deceleration-responsive, and an additional check is made whether or not braking is pedal operated ( ).
