Application of dynamic emergency brake
-
If the service brake fails while the vehicle
is running, you can try to continuously pull
up the EPB button for emergency braking.
To exit the emergency braking, release
the EPB button or depress the accelerator
pedal.
CAUTION
In the following cases, operate the EPB
button again. If the fault is not eliminated,
please contact the GAC Motor authorized
shop for inspection.
● If the indicator lamp
flashes red
continuously, it indicates that the EPB
is partially engaged/disengaged or the
system is malfunctioning.
● If the indicator lamp
comes on in red
when EPB is not applied, it indicates
that the system is abnormal.
● If the indicator lamp
comes on in
yellow, it indicates that a fault is detected
in EPB and the EPB is degraded.
CAUTION
● Do not use dynamic emergency braking
unless necessary, as it is likely to
cause traffic accidents. Moreover, the
braking distance is longer than braking
by depressing the brake pedal, and the
service life of the parking brake system
will be shortened.
● If you pull up the EPB button when
the vehicle is running, the instrument
cluster display will give a visible warning
tell-tale together with an audible beep
alarm.
● If you release the EPB or depress
the accelerator pedal during dynamic
emergency braking, the EPB will be
released. If the EPB button is pulled
up until the vehicle stops, the EPB will
remain engaged.
