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 reducing the braking
effect.
5.2.2 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 assist for the driver.
NOTE
● EPB will choose different application
force strategies on different slopes. EPB
can realize parking on a slope with a
maximum gradient of 30%. If parking
on a slope with a gradient greater than
30%, there will be a risk of slipping, and
the EPB will be applied again, which is
normal.
● If the vehicle continues to slide down
after the EPB is applied to park the
vehicle on a slope below 30% and then
applied again against slipping of the
vehicle, please depress the brake pedal
and drive the vehicle to a flat road. It is
recommended to go to the GAC Motor
authorized shop for inspection and
repair in time.
Application of static park brake
-
When the vehicle is stationary, lift the EPB
button or press the P gear button in the
direction of the arrow. 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.
