1. Important Safety Precautions

◆Be sure to fasten the seat belt correctly

The seat belt is the best protection device in the event of a

collision. Airbags are only designed as auxiliaries, rather than

replacements, of the seat belts, so even if the vehicle is equipped

with airbags, make sure that you and the passengers always

fasten the seat belts correctly.

◆Do not leave children in an unattended vehicle

Do not leave children in an unattended vehicle, as injury or even

death may occur if they trigger a control device accidentally, or

when the vehicle is moved accidentally and collided with other

objects due to their mis-operation, and besides, the temperature

inside the vehicle may reach an extreme condition, depending on

the ambient temperature.

◆Protect all children

Children aged 12 or under should be properly restrained in the

rear seats rather than the front seats. Child safety seats shall be

used for infants and toddlers; and child safety seats and three-

point seat belts shall be used for older children.

◆Beware of danger of airbag

Airbags can save lives, but they can also cause serious or

fatal injuries to occupants who are too close to the airbags or

improperly restrained.

Airbags pose the greatest risk to infants, toddlers and short adults,

so please follow all instructions and warnings in this manual.

◆Never drink and drive

Drinking alcohol, even a little, will reduce your response capability,

and your reaction time after drinking will become longer, so

drinking and driving is strictly prohibited.

◆During driving, please abide by the road traffic safety

laws and yield to pedestrians.

◆Be sure to pay attention to driving safety

Traffic accident will occur if you are busy answering the phone

or handling other things so that you can not pay attention to road

conditions, other traffics and pedestrians during driving. Please

avoid distraction during driving.

◆Control speed

Excessive speed is one of the main causes of traffic accidents.

The faster the speed is, the greater the risk will be. Therefore,

please choose the appropriate speed for safe driving according to

the actual road conditions.

◆Regular maintenance

Tire burst or mechanical failure is very dangerous. In order to

reduce the possibility of such problems, please check the tire

pressure and status frequently, and carry out regular maintenance

1. Important Safety Precautions

Event data recorder (EDR)

This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main

function of EDR is to record data in the event of certain collisions or

risk of collisions (such as airbag deployment or colliding with a barrier),

so as to help understanding the operation of the vehicle system. EDR

is specially used to record data related to vehicle dynamic control and

safety systems in a short period of time. However, depending on the

severity and type of collision, data may not be recorded.

The data specially recorded by the EDR of this vehicle include:

These data help better understanding the situation in the event of a

collision and personal injury, and are used to assist accident analysis.

NOTE

The EDR will record data only when a certain degree of collision

occurs to the vehicle; EDR will not record data during normal

driving.

EDR data disclosure

Except for the following circumstances, GAC Motor (Hangzhou) will

not disclose the data recorded in the EDR to third parties:
