accident, resulting in serious
personal injury.
• Be sure to increase the distance
between the vehicle and another
ahead of it when towing a trailer
as the braking distance may be
increased in towing. When driving
at 10 km/h, keep this distance
at least equal to the sum of the
length of the vehicle and the
trailer. Avoid emergency braking
to prevent vehicle folding and out
of control due to slippage.
•
Maintain the trailer's tire pressure
at the value speci󽗉ed by the trailer
manufacturer based on the gross
weight of the trailer.
• If the vehicle is used to tow a
trailer, improve the maintenance
frequency due to vehicle load
increase.
Driving Safety
Precautions
No driving after drink
Drinking even a small amount of alcohol
reduces your ability to adapt to road
tra󽗋c conditions. Drinking more alcohol
further slows your responses. Therefore,
never drive while under the in󽗊uence.
Speed control
Speeding is a major cause of collisions
involving injury and death. In general,
faster speeds entail higher risk. Therefore,
please maintain a driving speed safe for
the tra󽗋c conditions on the road.
Maintaining the vehicle in safe driving
condition
Tire bursts and mechanical faults are
extremely dangerous. To reduce the
possibility of such faults, frequently check
the vehicle’s condition, and regularly
complete the speci󽗉ed inspections.
CAUTION
• Only licensed drivers can drive the
vehicle.
• Do not drive when fatigued.
• Tra󽗋c laws are to be observed at
all times.
• When driving, drivers must stay
focused and not carry out
any unrelated activity, such as
answering calls or adjusting
buttons.
Suggestions for Vehicle
Use
Suggestions for prolong the battery
usage:
• The power battery should keep at 40%
to 60% when it is not used for over a
week, or it may reduce the life of the
high-voltage battery battery.
• When the vehicle is not to be
operated for an extended period
(over 3 months), the power battery
must be fully charged and then
discharged to 40%-60%. Otherwise,
over-discharge may result, leading to
battery performance degradation or
even damage. Any vehicle fault or
damage so caused will not be covered
by the quality warranty.
• During operation of the vehicle, if
the instrument cluster displays the
pure electric driving mileage as 0, it
indicates the power battery is low. In
this case, charge the power battery in
time and avoid operating the vehicle
with low power battery for a long time;
• For optimal battery performance, use
an AC charging connector to fully
charge the battery regularly, and the
