Ⅳ.Installation of tire and regulation of air pressure
1. Fit tire valve
Prior to installing tire valve, firstly check the valve port to ensure whether it is smooth and free
from burr, and then apply glycerol on the rubber body surface, will soak the tire valve into glycerol.
Pull or press (200 - 400N) using special tools to make the locating ring of the valve can go through
the wheel holes, to this point, the assembly is completed (soap water is allowed to substitute
glycerol).
2. Fit the tire
Before fit the tire, apply glycerol or soap water along the cycle of tire bead, meanwhile, note that:
2.1 When there is colored dot on the wheel rim, align the uniformity testing mark of tire to the
colored dot mark of wheel rim.
2.2 When without colored dot on the wheel rim, align the dynamic balance testing mark of tire to
valve position.
2.3 When without colored dot on the wheel rim, additionally, there is no dynamic balance testing
mark, however, static balance testing mark is available, at this point, align the tire valve to the static
balance testing mark.
2.4 The description concerning the uniformity, dynamic balance and static balance testing marks
for tires will be additionally provided in writing by the product division of Chery Company or
suppliers. In addition, this kind of descriptions will clearly be indicated on process sheet.
2.5 Carry out tire inflation strictly in accordance with specified pressure. During inflating process,
air pressure shall not exceed 10% of rated pressure. When performing separate packaging to spare
wheel assembly, the rated inflation pressure shall be 3.5bar, and the spare wheel assembly shall be
stored separately from four wheels. Prior to carrying out four-wheel alignment, check four-wheel
tire pressure and adjust air pressure. Front wheel pressure shall be 2.0±0.2 bar; the rear wheel shall
be 2.2± 0.2bar.
3. Tire inflation
After completion of tire inflation, screw up the protective cap of valve, and then carry out dynamic
balancing test. Fit appropriate balance weight at the internal and external fringe of wheel rim as
required. It is required that the unbalancedness of the final assembly shall be less than 100g·cm,
which is approximately equivalent to a 5g balance weight at the internal and external fringe of
wheel rim.
Note: each wheel and each side can use only one balance weight. Additionally, its maximum mass
shall not be more than 70g. During assembling process, never hit the balance weight too heavy.
Otherwise, replace balance weight in time. In addition, never use the replaced balance weight
again.
4. Installation of wheel and tire assembly
When fixing wheel and tire assembly, first, manually screw up the wheel bolt onto the hub for
pretension, after that use special tools for tightening in accordance with diagonal process.
Tightening torque shall be 110±10N.m. It is prohibited to use impact wrench to prevent from wheel
damage, over loose or over tight. It is not allowed to apply grease on wheel bolt (For newly
assembled wheel and tire assembly, after initial 100km traveling, it is required to tighten the wheel
bolts once to guarantee appropriate tightening torque, and the inspection of wheel bolt tightening
torque is one of the routine maintenances).
5. Tightening method of wheel nut
Tighten the fixing nut in a decussate way, the tightening force shall be approximately equal, then
wheel shall be able to turn freely. When carry out final tightening, the wheel shall be on the ground.
6. Assembly of trim cover
Mount trim cover or place trim cover as required. When fitting clip- type trim cover, place knock
in position by hand or via rubber tools.

Ⅳ. Adjustment to power steering system
1. Correctly connect power steering oil pipe,where the tightening torque for the connector between
oil return pipe, high-pressure oil pipe and steering gear shall be 35±3N.m, the tightening torque of
hollow bolt connecting high-pressure oil pipe and power steering pump shall be 45±3N.m. When
filling power steering oil, it is recommended to use special purpose vacuum pumping oil. The
specifications for filling power steering hydraulic fluid and exhaustion are described as below:
Fill power steering hydraulic fluid into steering reservoir assembly to the maximum level, start
engine at low speed (idle speed) to drive the steering pump, the steering system will be quickly full
of hydraulic fluid. In the oil filling process, only let engine run at idle speed to drive vane pump.
Meanwhile, continuously add hydraulic fluid to prevent vane from sucking air due to oil level
drops.
2. When hydraulic fluid in the oil tank presents emulsification state, or the pump emits excessive
noise (under normal condition, max. noise shall be 80 db), it must carry out exhaustion process.
The exhaustion procedure is described as below:
Jack the front part of the vehicle till two front wheels are hung up, start the engine, turn the steering
wheel to right and left till reach limit position (caution: after come to the limit position, try not to
stop, even if stop, never maintain over 2 seconds). Repeat above action for several times, until the
air in the system is gradually exhausted from the oil reservoir. In this process, with the drop of oil
level, continuously supplement hydraulic fluid until the oil comes to specified level.
3. Regularly check and adjust the tension of power steering belt: vertically apply a 100N force at
the middle of the belt, the max. deflection of belt shall be less than 5 mm, otherwise adjust the belt
tension until meet the above requirement via adjusting tension bolt.
4. When in service, it is prohibited to turn the steering wheel to limit position, even if it has to do so,
never maintain at this position over 10 seconds. It is strictly prohibited to use power steering pump
without oil. If the driver suddenly feels the steering heavy in service, immediately stop the vehicle,
dismantle and repair accordingly.
