Method for controlling an electromechanical brake system of a vehicle during a standing-start operation of the vehicle and vehicle comprising an electromechanical brake system

A method for controlling an electromechanical brake system of a vehicle during a standing-start operation of the vehicle, wherein the brake system includes:

• at least one first electromechanical service brake provided on a first axle of the vehicle and at least one second electromechanical service brake provided on a second axle of the vehicle, wherein the at least one first electromechanical service brake includes a locking mechanism using which the at least one first service brake can also be operated as a parking brake, wherein the method comprises the following steps:
• releasing the locking mechanism;
• setting a first braking force on the at least one first service brake to a first initial braking force;
• setting a second braking force on the at least one second service brake to a second initial braking force;
• and
• reducing the first braking force from the first initial braking force at a first rate of reduction over time and the second braking force from the second initial braking force at a second rate of reduction over time.
