STARTING AND DRIVING
EDL Use Instruction
EDL Locking
When the wheel speed difference between two rear wheels is less than
1 Okml1l, and the vehicle speed is less than 5kmlh, long press the EDL
switch for more than 2 seconds, and the "EDL Indicator Lamp (yellow)"
on the instrument cluster illuminates, it indicates that EDL is successfully
locked. When the wheel speed difference between two rear wheels is
greater than 10km/h, or the vehicle speed is greater than or equal to
5km/h, long press the EDL switch for more than 2 seconds, EDL will not
perform the locking operation, and "Please Slow Down to Lock EDL"
will be displayed on the instrument cluster.
EDL Unlocking
When the EDL is in locked state, and the vehicle speed is less than or
equal to 30kmlh, long press the EDL switch for more than 2 seconds, and
the "EDL Indicator Lamp (yellow)" on the instrument cluster goes out, it
Indicates that the EDL is successfully unlocked. When the EDL is in
locked state, and the vehicle speed is greater than 30kml1l(only for
vehicles equipped with Real-lime 4WD System and All-Terrain Four
Wheel Drive System) or 60km/h(only for vehicles equipped with Part-
lime 4WD System), the EDL will be automatically unlocked, the "EDL
Indicator Lamp (yellow)" on the Instrument cluster goes out, it indicates
that the EDL is successfully unlocked. And it will no longer be
automatically locked after the vehicle speed drops.
Electronic Differential Lock
The electronic differential lock (EDL) switch is located on the floor
console, select the differential lock On/Off state with the EDL switch.
The electronic differential lock can rigidly connect two half axles of rear
wheels, when a rear wheel slips, the vehicle can still obtain a large driving
force.
Precautions before EDL Use
• The EDL Is suitable for slippery roads, such as roads with grass, mud,
sand, mud pits and other bad road conditions. When driving on a
road which is dry and in good condition, if the EDL mode is selected,
the tyre wear will accelerate, the vehicle noise will increase, and it is
easy to cause damage to drivetrain components, meanwhile risks in
driving may exist, so it is recommended to turn off the EDL in this
road condition.
• After the EDL is locked, the rear wheels are equivalent to a rigid axle
connection, at this time, it is required to avoid large angle turning
operation, otherwise it will easily damage the drivetrain components
and cause abnormal tyre wear, and even rollover accident in serious
cases.
• If the "EDL Indicator Lamp (yellow)" fails to go out or
illuminate when the user operates the EDL Switch, or the "EDL
Indicator lamp (red)" i lluminates, please go to our service
dealer for inspection as soon as possible.
STARTING AND DRIVING
Brake System
Service brake
Dual-pipeline hydraulic brake system
During driving, if one hydraulic pipeline fails, the "Brake
System Warning Lamp (red)" on the instrument
cluster will illuminate, the failure may lead to the
increase of brake pedal stroke and applied force, a
longer braking distance, and even the vehicle pulling to
one side. Do not try to restore the brake pedal pressure
by the way of alternate press and release. If one brake
pipeline has pressure failure, you must find out the
cause. Please stop the vehicle immediately with care.
Contact our Service Dealer for service immediately. Do
not continue to drive.
If one hydraulic pipeline fails, the other hydraulic pipeline will continue
working.
General status
Ensure carpet or other objects will not hinder the
operation of brake pedal.
Do not take the brake pedal as the foot rest, since It
may lead to brake overheat, efficiency degradation and
excessive wear. Excessive worn brake pad / brake shoe
will emit harsh noise or whistle, brake efficiency may be
affected when the brake is applied. Please contact our
Service Dealer for service assoon as possible.
If the engine stops running due to some causes, brake booster will stop
working after 2 pedal operations, to achieve the expected brake effect, a
larger force shall be applied on the pedal. In this case, the brake distance
may be longer.
If the vehicle is not frequently in use or parked in the garage for an
extended period of time, the efficiency of brake system will also be
reduced. Please contact our Service Dealer for service as soon as
