Start by pressing the brake pedal, ignite the engine, then press the electronic parking brake button to release the parking brake. Hold down the brake pedal, shift into P gear, and then press the electronic parking brake button next to the gear lever. The friction between the brake disc and brake pads achieves parking brake control, except that the control method changes from a mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button.

What is the best engine oil for Geely Vision?

According to the manufacturer's manual requirements, Geely Vision should use engine oil of the following grades under different conditions. Here are the specific instructions: 1. Summer: 20W-50, 15W-40 - API SJ or SL multi-grade oil. 2. Winter: 10W-30, 5W-30 - API SJ or SL multi-grade oil. The "0W-30" on the engine oil packaging label is the viscosity grade of the oil. This viscosity grade is classified according to the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) standard. The "W" stands for winter, and the smaller the number before it, the better the low-temperature fluidity of the oil, the lower the ambient temperature it can be used in, and the better the protection for the engine during cold starts. The higher the number after it, the higher the viscosity of the oil at high temperatures, and the better the lubrication effect on the engine.
