I appologize in advance if this has been covered elsewhere. What function/purpose does the hold button serve?

Thanks

Is this the auto hold button next to the gear lever ?

If so and you turn it on, it puts the brake on automatically when you stop in a queue. As you touch the accelerator it automatically takes it off again.

Very useful in traffic as you don't need to keep our foot on the brake.

You can also set the "hold" to come on automatically every time you stop. Also helps when launching on inclines. With the standard transmission, the hold is released when the clutch is engaged at the same time as giving some gas.
