Abstract

A method for controlling a parking mode for a vehicle includes detecting an activation action of a user of the vehicle, determining a movement status of the vehicle, and activating a parking mode for the vehicle by closing a parking brake of a brake device of the vehicle and by engaging a gearshift lock of a transmission of the vehicle.
