1. An electronic brake system having a friction brake comprising:

  • friction linings for at least one wheel brake;

    at least one electronic control device (ECU); and

    at least one automated activation integrated electronic means (ESP+EPB−

    ECU) for performing a bedding in routine for bedding in friction partners of the friction brake,wherein the bedding in routine has a plurality of phases, specifically a learning phase for detecting a first engagement point (Mp) of the friction partners, and a chronologically adjoining bedding in phase for bedding in the friction partners, wherein the first engagement point (Mp) of the friction partners is detected or learned automatically by the automated activation integrated electronic means by measuring a rise in current, increased in a ramp-like fashion, of an electromechanically driven actuator (AC) or by blocking the actuator (AC), and wherein a brake application force which is increased in a pulse-like fashion is provided during the subsequent bedding in phase.
