When practicing to become a member of the Institute of Advanced Motorists, I wasadvised to hold in the handbrake button, and thus avoid the clicks, when applying the handbrake. This was so that the ratchet would not take unnecessary wear and tear. So up to now I did not know how many clicks were involved in securing the handbrake on my Captur. However, today I experimented. I found it was six clicks to secure the car under normal conditions, but I could apply seven clicks.
I have not felt that the amount of travel was excessive, and the car is held securely. So I suspect, unless you feel the car is insecure and runs the risk of rolling away, then all is OK.
