There is a control button for the car's automatic door on the DVD player control panel. Press the button to open the electric door, and press it again to close the electric door. The remote key has a button to open the electric door. Just press it towards the car, and the door will open automatically. The ceiling switch is located above the driver's seat and the front passenger seat, the first button from the driver's side to the front passenger side. Click it to open the door.

Over the years of driving the GL8, I've become quite familiar with its automatic doors. The most common operation is via the interior buttons: there's a control button next to the driver's armrest—press once to open automatically, press again to close. The middle and rear seats also have similar buttons for passenger convenience. The remote key fob is even more practical: holding down the unlock button opens both sliding doors fully, while a short press opens just one door, effective within a 5-meter range. The exterior door handles feature a small recessed button—a light press triggers automatic opening or closing. Always ensure the vehicle is in Park (P) for safety during operation, and avoid using it on slopes or near obstacles. If the door operates unevenly, it might be due to dust buildup in the tracks—a simple cleaning usually resolves this. The system alerts when battery power is low; timely charging prevents issues. Overall, the thoughtful design makes entering and exiting the vehicle effortless.

As the main family outing vehicle, the GL8's automatic sliding doors are incredibly convenient for kids. I usually use the buttons in the central control area inside the car—just press them and the doors slide open automatically, allowing children to get in and out freely. The remote control is also a great helper; after unlocking, pressing the button twice can open or close the doors. External operation is simple: gently pull the button area on the door handle, and the door will sense and open. Before operating, confirming the gear is in P is essential to prevent accidental rolling. On rainy days, I make sure to avoid mud accumulation in the tracks to prevent jamming. Regular maintenance to lubricate the tracks can extend their lifespan. These details make trips smoother and more comfortable.

I prefer understanding some vehicle principles. The GL8 automatic door operation is based on an electric sliding rail mechanism. There are three methods of operation: pressing the button inside the car activates the motor to drive the door, the remote control sends signals to control the circuit for opening and closing, and fingerprint sensing on the exterior handle unlocks the door followed by button operation. Safety mechanisms include anti-pinch sensors and a D-gear door lock function to prevent opening while driving. The core of the operation is shifting to P-gear to activate the system, which is simple and reliable. Be cautious not to use it frequently under extreme temperatures as it may affect the motor's lifespan. Regular inspection and cleaning of the tracks are recommended.

Safety comes first when driving, and I am extra cautious when operating the GL8's automatic doors. The steps are straightforward: after parking and shifting to P gear, use the interior button or remote control for one-touch opening/closing, ensuring your body stays clear of the door track. When using the exterior handle, press lightly to avoid pinching risks. Avoid frequent operation in crowded areas or windy conditions to prevent accidents. If the door sticks or responds slowly, it may be due to low battery or obstruction—stop immediately and inspect. Following the manual’s guidance ensures a worry-free process.

Daily commuting with the GL8, here are some tips for operating the automatic doors: The interior button is the quickest—press to open and touch to close. Customize the opening mode with the remote: long press to open all doors, short press for a single door. The exterior handle button offers a comfortable touch with instant response upon pressing. Ensure the vehicle is in Park (P) mode before operation, and adjust sensitivity in power-saving mode. During weather changes, clean the tracks to prevent dust buildup and door jams. If the door is partially open, pause to adjust its position. These small details enhance practicality and user experience.
