Automatic application of EPB
Automatic application at power-off
■ When the power switch is rotated from “OK” to “OFF”, the EPB will be automatically
applied and the indicator lamp
on the instrument will turn on.
Automatic application at “P”
■ When the vehicle speed is <3km/h, the gearshift knob is at “D”/”R”, and the driver door
is opened, the gearshift knob automatically shifts to “N”/”P” (If fitted) and at the same
time the EPB is applied automatically (If fitted).
Note
● Pressing the EPB switch and then powering off the vehicle will not automatically
apply the EPB. It can be used to meet the towing or pushing need in event of
breakdown of vehicle.
● Do not release the brake pedal in advance during this process, especially when the
vehicle is parked on a slope, otherwise there is a low risk of vehicle gliding.
● This function is intended to prevent the driver’s power-off of vehicle without applying
the parking brake, in order to promote the active safety of vehicle. The frequent use
is not recommended.
Manual release of EPB
With the vehicle under started status and the gearshift knob not in “P” (Parking), depress
and hold the brake pedal and press the EPB switch, till the indicator lamp on the instrument
turns off, which indicates that the electronic parking brake is released, and the “Electronic
parking released” is displayed.
Note
● Gear “P” is the parking gear of vehicle to symbolize that the vehicle is currently
under steady parking status. EPB is the main parking device of this vehicle. To
guarantee the parking safety of vehicle, releasing the parking brake by EPB switch
can be made only when the gearshift knob is not in “P” (Parking).
