5.6 Electric Power Steering (EPS)
System
The EPS is a power steering system directly
relying on the motor to provide assist torque. It
mainly consists of torque sensor, motor,
decelerating mechanism and electric steering
control unit (ECU).
By detecting the driver’s torque input and
signals of whole vehicle conditions, for example,
speed and engine speed, the ECU controls the
torque output of the assist motor in real-time
manner, so as to realize the best steering assist,
ensure flexibility at low speed and stability at high
speed, and improve driving comfort and vehicle
safety.
Electronic Power Steering (EPS) System
indicator light
When the ignition switch is at the "ON"
position, the indicator light will go on. After the
engine is started for several seconds, the EPS
control unit will finish the self-inspection and the
indicator light will go off, indicating that the EPS
system works normally.
If the indicator light goes on after start of the
engine or during driving, the EPS system is faulty,
and the instrument cluster display shows the
warning message. In such a case, park the vehicle
at a safe place. Try to shut down the engine first
and then start it again. If the indicator light keeps
on or it goes on again during driving, do
not continue driving, but contact any authorized
GAC Motor's dealer for maintenance.
Steering Mode
There are “Standard”, “Sport” and “Comfort”
steering modes. You may have to steer harder with
“Sport” mode. “Standard” is the default mode of the
system.
Hint
Set the steering mode in the audio system
through “Vehicle Setting → Driving Assist →
Steering Mode”.
