As a new owner of the GL8, I spent some time figuring out the tricks to operate the electric sliding doors. Normally, I'm used to pressing and holding the unlock button on the remote key for about two seconds while pointing it at the door, and the door automatically slides open. Alternatively, when approaching the car, a gentle pull on the small button beneath the door handle also triggers the electric opening. Controls inside the car are equally convenient—there's a dedicated button on the driver's side dashboard that, when pressed, slowly opens the door, and a control panel near the rear seats offers the same functionality. I also discovered that the GL8's electric doors are quite intelligent, featuring anti-pinch protection. It's important to avoid forcing the doors open or closed to prevent damaging the motor. For maintenance, it's essential to clean dust from the door tracks with a soft cloth to avoid blockages and to spray lubricant on the rollers every few months to extend their lifespan. Safety-wise, always check the surroundings at night to ensure no people or vehicles are nearby before opening the doors, and avoid suddenly reaching into the door's path during operation. Electric doors significantly enhance entry and exit convenience, especially making it easier when traveling with children—just make sure kids don't play with the control buttons.
