Normally, it is not recommended to disable the ESC system.
The system should be disabled temporarily only when the
vehicle gets out of the mire or the vehicle climbs on a
snowfield, etc.
Hill-start Hold Control (HHC) System *
The ESC system has the HHC function. The function can
help the vehicle to start easily on a slope without using the
parking brake.
Whether the driver is driving or reversing onto a hill, the start
assistant is provided through the function. Therefore,
engage gear before starting, please.
When the hill-start hold control functions, after the brake
pedal is released, the vehicle still keeps the braking force
for 1-2s. In this case, the vehicle will not slide backwards.
For one MT vehicle, the driver can focus on engagement of
accelerator and clutch in 2s, so as to deal with the tense hill-
start with ease.
In 2s, if the driving force applied by the driver is greater than
the resistance which the vehicle is subject to when running
onto a hill, the system will gradually reduce the braking force
and the vehicle starts running smoothly. If the vehicle fails
to start running in 2s, or the driving force applied by the
driver is insufficient, the pressure of the brake system is
released automatically and the vehicle may start sliding a
slope. At the time, you can depress the brake pedal to make
the vehicle come to a complete stop, and the system will still
help you to conduct the next start (when conditions are met).
Conditions for the HHC system to function:
1. No fault exists on the system, and the engine has
been operating;
2. The vehicle is motionless and the brake pedal has
been depressed;
3. The drive gear or reverse gear has been engaged;
4. The system detects that the gradient value is met. (In
theory, when the slope is > 4%, the vehicle will nod
during braking, and the nodding angle will offset the
slope. As a result, the system may fail to be started
on a ramp whose slope is > 4%.)
Warning
The HHC function may fail to prevent the vehicle from
sliding a slope on a very slippery or steep hillside.
Only as one driver-assistance measure, the HHC
function cannot supersede the parking brake function.
Always conduct the parking brake when getting out of
the vehicle. If there is no sufficient driving force
provided after the brake pedal is released, the vehicle
will slide backwards. At this time, please immediately
draw back the parking brake and depress the park
pedal.
If the engine flames out during the process, please
immediately draw back the parking brake and depress
the park pedal.
Parking Brake
Mechanical Hand Brake *
The parking brake impacts rear wheels.
The parking brake lever is between two front-row seats. If
you are to conduct the parking brake, you should stop the
vehicle, depress the brake pedal and tension the parking
brake lever.
When you are to release the parking brake, depress the
brake pedal and take following measures:
1.
Draw back the parking brake lever slightly.
2. Press the button on the parking brake lever joint.
3. Release the parking brake lever when holding the
button pressed.
When parking on a downhill or uphill pavement, tension the
parking brake as tightly as possible.
