WARNING
● The brake fluid must be changed
every two years. If the brake fluid
stays in the brake system for a long
period, air resistance may occur in
the pipeline during braking, reducing
the braking effect significantly and
impairing driving safety, and even
causing failure of the brake system,
resulting in an accident thereby!
● If the front spoiler is out of standard
or damaged, it will block the cooling
airflow to brakes, causing brakes to
overheat and degrading the braking
effect.
5.2.2 Electric park brake (EPB)
The driver can apply or release the parking
brake by operating the EPB button. HSA can
be applied for driving on a slope. When the
accelerator pedal is depressed with the vehicle
parked, the EPB will be automatically released
to provide driving assistance for the driver.
CAUTION
The EPB will apply a fixed force according
to the gradient for braking.
● If the vehicle slides downwards after
parking, the EPB will automatically
increase the brake force.
● If the vehicle continues to slide after the
braking force is automatically increased,
please depress the brake pedal and
drive the vehicle to a flat road. Contact
the GAC Motor authorized shop for
inspection in time.
Application of static park brake
-
When the vehicle is stationary, pull up
the EPB button as arrowed. The button
indicator lamp and the indicator lamp
on the instrument cluster will come on,
indicating that the EPB has been applied.
-
When the gearshift lever is moved to the
“P” position from other positions, the EPB
will be applied automatically.
-
When the vehicle is powered off, the EPB
will be applied automatically
