Abstract
In a method for controlling electromechanical brakes of a vehicle brake system, the brakes have at least one self-boosting device and the method has steps for switching a first sub-group of the electromechanical brakes () from a first operating position () into a second operating position () and for varying the brake force () of a second sub-group of the electromechanical brakes () during the switch of the first sub-group of the electromechanical brakes () such that the overall brake force applied by the vehicle brake system substantially always corresponds to the brake force setpoint value () for the vehicle brake system.
