2 Answers
The parking steps for the Emgrand GL: 1. Press the foot brake to stop the car; 2. Shift the gear from D to N; 3. Pull up the handbrake; 4. Release the foot brake, but do not turn off the power (the purpose is to confirm that the car is completely stable under the handbrake to prevent the P gear from locking); 5. Press the foot brake and shift the gear from N to P; 6. Release the foot brake and press the start-stop button to turn off the power. The body dimensions of the Geely Emgrand GL are 4725mm in length, 1802mm in width, and 1478mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. The Emgrand GL has a superior body length and wheelbase level among its peers.
Here's my usual parking routine: First, I look for a suitable spot to park, then turn on the right turn signal to alert vehicles behind me. When the speed drops to around 10km/h, I gradually move closer to the curb while checking the mirrors to ensure safety. I press the brake to bring the car to a complete stop—for automatic transmissions, I shift to N (Neutral), and for manual transmissions, I press the clutch and shift to neutral. Then, I firmly pull up the handbrake (or simply engage the electronic parking brake with a push), release the foot brake, and the car should remain completely still. Finally, I shift into P (Park) for automatics or reverse gear for manuals to prevent rolling. On slopes, I’m extra careful—I turn the steering wheel sharply toward the curb so that even if the handbrake fails, the wheels will catch on the curb. Once, I forgot to close the windows on a rainy day, so now I always check the windows and lights before turning off the engine.
