The parking brake impacts rear wheels.
As shown in the figure above, the EPB switch is
between two front-row seats.
Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) *
If you have to apply parking brake, depress the
brake pedal to stop the vehicle and then draw
back the electronic parking brake switch. In
this case, the EPB working indicator
illuminates, and you release the EPB switch
after the instrument cluster displays “Parking
brake applied”.
At the time, the EPB system brake will be
clamped to park the vehicle in situ.
Manually Apply Parking Brake
In the process of applying or releasing the
parking brake, it is normal that you will
feel that the brake pedal lifts or lowers.
Note
If you have to release parking brake, firstly
confirm that the ignition switch is at the ON
position, depress the brake pedal, and then
press the EPB switch. The EPB working
indicator Ⓟ goes out, and the instrument
cluster displays “parking brake released”,
reminding you of parking brake released.
If the brake pedal has not been depressed, the
instrument will give a hint “Please depress the
brake pedal and then release the EPB switch”.
When you are operating the EPB switch, the
switch will make response only when the time
for releasing or pressing the switch is > 0.1s.
Manually Release Parking Brake
DRIVING AND CONTROLS
EPB Automatic Clamping Function
When the engine flames out in the motionless
state, the vehicle will automatically apply
parking brake, and you do not have to pull up
the EPB switch.
EPB Automatic Releasing Function
You do not have to manually release parking
brake when starting the vehicle; parking brake
will be released automatically when the system
detects that the vehicle is going to start.
Start the vehicle, engage gear (drive gear or
reverse gear), and the driver’s safety belt is
tightened; depress the accelerator and release
the clutch. After the vehicle start conditions
are met, the parking brake will be released
automatically.
To smoothly start and avoid sliding backwards
on an uphill pavement, opening of the
accelerator being depressed shall be enlarged
properly.
Anti-sliding Reclamping Function
When the parking brake is in the clamped
state, if it is detected that wheels roll, EPB will
immediately reclamp to avoid sliding.
EPB Hot Disc Reclamping Function
If you park when the rear brake disc temperature
is high, the braking force may reduce after a period
of time due to thermal expansion and cold
contraction. EPB can keep the braking force by
reclamping many times to avoid sliding.
EPB Dynamic Braking Function
During driving (speed > 3 km/h), continuously
draw back the EPB switch to trigger the ESC
system so as to brake four wheels till the
vehicle comes to a stop. EPB clamps after the
vehicle stops. If the EPB switch is released
halfway, braking is released.
In case of dynamic braking, if the ESC system is
subject to braking failure, EPB clamps rear
wheels to brake.
This function can be activated only in case of
emergencies such as foot brake failure. Please
neither activate the function in normal times
nor have others operate the EPB switch
without permission.
Detection Line Passing Mode
Conduct as required by the detection line
after enteri n g t h e r o l l e r p l a t f orm.
Continuously draw back the EPB switch or
continuously conduct the action of drawing
back-releasing the EPB switch 6 times.
Deactivation of Automatic Clamping
Function
During transport, traction and vehicle
cleaning, you may need deactivate the EPB
automatic clamping function so as to make it
possible to move the vehicle after flameout.
Deactivation method: Depress the brake
pedal and hold the EPB switch pressed while
killing the engine. Try to move the vehicle to
confirm that EPB is not in the clamped state.
Afterwards, if you have to apply the parking
brake, draw back the EPB switch.
Deactivate the automatic clamping function
only on the flat ground. Otherwise, the vehicle
will move and thus a danger may be caused
when the foot brake is released.
After deactivating the automatic clamping
function, take measures to prevent from
sliding due to lack of braking force, for
example, cushion wood blocks or stones on
both sides of a wheel.
