Deactivation of Automatic Clamping
Function
When pushing, towing, and cleaning the
vehicle, you may need to turn off the EPB
automatic clamping function to drive the
vehicle after startup.
Turn-off method: Depress the brake pedal
and hold the EPB switch pressed while
stopping the vehicle. Try to push the vehicle
to confirm that EPB is not in the clamped
state.
Automatic Vehicle Hold (AVH)*
The vehicle with EPB has the auto vehicle
hold function.
After the function is activated, the driver can
depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle, or
depress the brake pedal to make the vehicle
stand still and idle. After the brake pedal is
released, the hydraulic pressure in the brake
system will keep parking (whether on uphill
or flat roads). At this time, the vehicle can be
stationary without pulling up the EPB switch.
If the driver depresses the accelerator
to start the vehicle within 5 minutes, the
hydraulic pressure in the brake system will be
automatically released, and the parking brake
will be released at the same time to start
the vehicle. After 5 minutes, automatically
switch to the electronic parking brake caliper,
clamp the parking, and release the hydraulic
pressure in the brake system at the same
time.
The start/stop state of the auto vehicle hold
function can be saved. If the auto vehicle hold
switch is ON or OFF when the power supply
is turned off last time, it will remain the same
when the power supply is turned on again.
Automatic Vehicle Hold (AVH) Switch*
After the vehicle enters the READY state, the
driver fastens the seat belt, closes the driver’s
side door, and presses the auto vehicle hold
switch. At this time, the background lamp on
the switch illuminates, and the auto vehicle
hold function is activated.
After that, if the conditions are met, the auto
vehicle hold function working indicator on
the instrument panel will light up. The parking
brake starts to work, and the brake system
applies braking force to park the vehicle.
