Abstract

In a method for displacing and storing brake fluid for a hydraulic brake system of a vehicle which brake system has at least one hydraulic accumulator, at least one brake booster and at least one brake circuit, the brake booster is configured in such a manner, that even without an action of the driver, actuation of the brake booster allows a volume of brake fluid to be automatically displaced. The brake fluid is displaced into the hydraulic accumulator and stored, by automatic actuation of the brake booster, and at least a portion of the stored brake fluid is emptied by the hydraulic accumulator into the brake circuit as a function of the operating state of the brake system.
