Abstract

A method and a device for controlling a wheel brake in open-loop, which is provided with an electrically controllable control device. The control, in particular the clearance adjustment, is effected as a function of the change tendency of a braking-force or braking-torque signal over a path signal which represents a measure for the path covered by the brake pad.
