CAUTION
•If the EPB switch is pressed and
shutdown, EPB will not be pop up
automatically. This operation can be
used for towing or pushing the vehicle
in case of breakdown.
•During this process, the brake pedal
should not be released in advance,
especially when the vehicle is parked
on a slope, as there is a risk the
vehicle will move down.
•This feature is intended to improve
the vehicle's autonomous safety,
and over-reliance or frequent use is
not recommended. To ensure safety,
make sure that the vehicle is set to the
"P" gear position or the EPB switch
is pulled up before getting out of the
vehicle.
•In the first few seconds after starting
the vehicle, the EPB system is in
the process of power-on self-test,
during which it will not respond to all
functions.
Manual EPB Release
• When power status is on "OK" or the
vehicle is started and the gearshift
lever is not on "P", press and hold the
brake pedal and press the EPB switch
until the indicator on the cluster is off,
which indicates EPB has been released,
and there will be an "EPB Released"
message.
CAUTION
•The "P" gear is the vehicle's parking
gear, meaning that the vehicle is in
a stable parking status, while EPB is
the vehicle's main parking device. To
ensure parking safety, release EPB
with the EPB switch only when the
vehicle is not in "P" gear (parking
gear).
EPB Automatic Release Upon
Vehicle Start
• When the vehicle is powered on, the
brake pedal is pressed and held, and
the gear is shifted into "D" or "R", EPB is
automatically released. The indicator
foes off and the "EPB released" message
is displayed.
CAUTION
•The brake pedal must always be
pressed when shifting gears. Release
the pedal only after the intended gear
is displayed on the cluster.
When the vehicle is in parking state, start
the vehicle, press and hold the brake pedal,
and shift from "P" or "N" gear into "D", "R"
or other driving gears, and EPB will be
released automatically, with the indicator
going and the message "EPB Released".
WARNING
• Whenever possible, refrain from using
for forced braking. Use the emergency
braking function only extreme cases,
for example, when the brake pedal
fails or is blocked.
•
This is because EPB cannot exceed
the physical limit of road adhesion.
If the emergency braking function
is used in curves, dangerous or
congested roads, or in bad weather
conditions, the vehicle may drift, skid
or deviate.
