Equipment marked with asterisk
symbol is only fitted on vehicles
having certain construction and produced
in batch, and is only optional for several
vehicle types or vehicles supplied to
certain markets.
In the event that this symbol is
seen in your vehicle, you must
first of all read the related chapters in this
manual before operating your vehicle.
We must exercise our obligatory
responsibility and duty in the
environmental protection. To realize this
objective, you should take important
measures properly operating your vehicle
and disposing of cleaning products and
lubricating materials in line with laws. In
this manual, the tree-shaped symbol is
used to highlight this kind of information.
Inspection of new
vehicle
Before delivering the vehicle to you, the
dealer of Chery has performed inspections
to the vehicle as required by Chery
Automobile Co., Ltd. The dealer should
fill in date of delivery in the column of
“Inspection Proof at Delivery” in this
manual and stamp its official seal.
The dealer will make clear the
performance of the finished vehicle to you
according the Vehicle Delivery Card of
Chery Automobile and give you the
general knowledge of vehicle operation,
and the sales clerk and customer will sign.
Running in of new
vehicle
Owing to the error of machining and
assembling, at the initial period of
operation the frictional resistance between
each pair of moving parts in new vehicle is
much bigger than that in normal condition.
The result of running in of new vehicle
will produce great influence on the service
life and operating reliability and
economical efficiency of vehicle, therefore
the regulation of running in must be
strictly kept in the operation of new
vehicle.
Regulation of running
in within 1,000 km:
Driving at full speed is absolutely
BRIEF INTRODUCTION
8
prohibited.
Driving at the speed in excess of 100
km/h is usually not allowed.
Driving at the maximum speed for
each gear should be avoided.
Regulation of running
in within the range of
1,000-1,500 km:
Driving speed can be gradually
increased to the maximum, or engine
operates at its allowable highest
revolution.
Attentions should be
paid after the period of
running in:
In the case of driving the vehicle fitted
with engine tachometer, the allowable
maximum revolution of engine is 6,000
r/min in a short time. While shifting gear
manually, the vehicle must be shifted to
the neighboring high gear at latest before
the needle of tachometer is in the red
indicative range.
Engine should be avoided to
operate at unnecessary high
speed. It should be shifted to the high gear
as early as possible in favor of saving fuel
and decreasing operational noise and
helping to reduce environmental pollution.
While in driving, the engine is also
unfavorable with too low revolution. It
should be shifted to the proper gear at
proper time.
With cold engine, whether in NEUTRAL
or running gears, do not let engine work at
maximum revolution state.
A new tire has no optimal adhesive force
when first used. Therefore, a new tire
requires running-in; when traveling in first
100 kilometers, drive slowly and take
extra care and precaution.
New brake lining is also required to run in.
In view of the fact that within the driving
of first 200 km, brake cannot produce
ideal friction with slightly bad braking
effect, brake pedal can be depressed with
moderately violent force. In this stage, if
damping-effect is a little poor, increase
pressure on pedal properly. Such case also
applies to each replacement of brake lining
afterwards.
Wheel nuts of new vehicle must be
tightened to the specified torque over
again after driving for 800 km. The torque
value is specified in the chapter of
“Parameters of Specification” of this
manual. Likewise, in the event that wheel
BRIEF INTRODUCTION

has ever been replaced or wheel nuts have
ever been loosened, they must be
tightened to the specified torque once
again after driving for 800 km.
Person-to-person
service
In order to provide you with better service
and vehicle, the dealer of Chery will
designate a service consultant to serve you.
If you have any problem during use of the
vehicle, please contact your service
consultant and he/she will provide you
with top-quality service.

INTRODUCTION OF DRIVING
CHAPTER TWO INTRODUCTION OF DRIVING
INTRODUCTION OF DRIVING
The engine’s long high-speed
racing could cause the engine and its
exhaust system to overheat and has
chance to cause fire and other
damages. Therefore, do not park on
the ground with hay or other dry
The tail gas exhausted from
the vehicle is toxic, so, do not start a
car long in an in-closed garage or
other closed places. Be sure to open
the door of the garage before starts
the engine. See “Beware of the Car’s
Exhaust Fume” for more information.
Start
PREPARATION
BEFORE STARTING
The engine’s starting is controlled by an
electric control system.
When starting an electronic injection
engine, do not push down the accelerator
pedal before and during the starting. Use
the accelerator pedal only when it is
difficult to start the engine. For more
information about the car’s starting, see
“Starting” in this chapter.
SAFETY NOTICE
The engine’s idle speed RPM is controlled
by an electric control system. The engine
starts with a higher idle speed RPM so as
to raise its temperature. The idle speed
RPM should automatically fall after the
engine reaches a proper temperature.
Deliver the car to Chery Authorized
Service Station for repair if the idle speed
RPM could not fall automatically. Do not
let engine run for more than 10 minutes at
a speed higher than specified idle speed.
MATTERS
CONCERNED
BEFORE STARTING
YOUR VEHICLE
INTRODUCTION OF DRIVING
Be sure that all passengers tie the
seat belts properly. See the chapter
“Seats and Safety Device” for more
information about seat belt and its
proper usage.
Be sure that the headlight and other
electrical accessories are OFF.
Make sure handle of hand brake has
been pulled up.
Be sure that the selector lever is in
NEUTRAL.
Turn ignition switch to the “Ⅱ”
position other than the “III”.
If there exists resistance turning the key,
turn the steering wheel left and right until
the key could turn freely. This occurs
probably due to the following reasons:
The front wheel deflexion.
The front wheel hits the curb.
The steering wheel is turned when
getting into or out of the car. (the
steering wheel self-locks).
Be sure that the warning light on the
dashboard shine short time while
turning on the ignition key. If not,
deliver the car to Chery Authorized
Service Station for repair.
The warning light will not shine with the
driver’s seat belt fastened before turning
on the ignition key.
THE ENGINE’S
STARTING
1. Turn the ignition switch to the “Ⅲ”
position without stepping on the
accelerator pedal; release the key
immediately after the engine starts,
then the key will return to the “II”
position.
2. If ambient temperature is above
-12C and the engine fails to start
within 5 seconds for the first start,
turn the key to the “B” position and
wait 10 seconds before another try.
3. If the temperature is below -12C
and the engine fails to start within 15
seconds for the first start, turn the
key to the “B” position and wait 10
seconds before another try. If the
engine fails to start in successive two
tries, push accelerator pedal to floor
and hold, then turn the key to the
“Ⅲ” position. After the engine starts,
release the key, and then release the
accelerator pedal slowly as the
engine's RPM rises.
4. Run in idle speed a few seconds
after the engine starts, and then push

exhaust fume inside the car, ask the
personnel from Chery Authorized
Service Station to repair the car. Do
not continue to drive because the
exhaust fume contains poisonous
content that may endanger life.
down the clutch, shift to the running
gear, release the hand brake to get
ready to run.
5. The ambient temperature conditions
applicable to normal start of the
engine is -25℃-40℃ (when the
ambient temperature is beyond this
range, other abnormal situations may
appear).
BEWARE OF THE
CAR’S EXHAUST
FUME
Though the vehicle’s exhaust fume only
has small toxicity, it contains carbon
monoxide, the poison which you must
beware of. Some compositions in the
engine’s exhaust gas and chemicals
contained in or generated by some
automotive parts may be carcinogenic or
cause neonate defects or other genital
system damages.
In the following cases, check exhaust
system and body ventilation system of the
vehicle.
Lift the car to examine and repair it.
The sounds of the exhaustion system
change.
The car is damaged by collision.
NOTICE OF
VENTILATION
Open the car’s windows with a gap more
than 2.5cm when parking long in idle
speed in an open area. Or use the
ventilation function of the car’s air
conditioning system to let fresh air into the
car.
Air vent
INTRODUCTION OF DRIVING
The engine’s temperature will
remain high after you turn off the
ignition switch and the engine stalls, so
let the electronic cooling fan of the
radiator continue to run about 10
minutes. Even if the cooling fan stops,
it may run again suddenly because of
high temperature. Therefore, when
working beside the engine, extra care
must be taken.
Clear away snow, fallen
leaves and other foreign materials
blocking at air inlet to ensure
ventilation effect of the vehicle.
SELF-ADAPTING
ABILITY OF THE
ENGINE’S
CONTROL SYSTEM.
If the battery cable has been removed from
the accumulator, the car may present itself
some abnormal phenomena in the initial
stage of running after the cable be
reconnected. This is normal in that the
engine’s control system is re-studying to
adapt the engine.
CONFINING THE
ENGINE’S RPM
To protect the engine, its RPM is confined
by an electronic unit (ECU).
ENGINE STALL
Release the accelerator pedal. Wait until
the engine’s RPM falls to idle speed, and
then turn off the ignition switch.
Do not turn off the engine immediately
when parking after a long time high-speed
running, and leave the engine continue to
run two minutes at a RPM higher than the
idle speed RPM so that the engine’s
temperature can fall gradually.
Do not push down the
accelerator pedal before turning off
INTRODUCTION OF DRIVING
If brake fluid level is found too
low, immediately add brake fluid to
maintain its level between MAX and
MIN and send your vehicle to Chery
Authorized Service Station for
inspection of brake system.
When one braking circuit fails
to work, you need to apply larger force
on the brake pedal when braking and
the stopping distance will also be
longer. Deliver the car to Chery
Authorized Service Station for repair
when this occurs before your journey.
BRAKING
DUAL CIRCUIT
BRAKING SYSTEM
You vehicle is equipped with an X-shape
dual-circuit brake system. In case one of
the two circuits fails, the other circuit can
still maintain effective operation.
LOW BRAKE FLUID
LEVEL ALARM
If the “ ” trouble light on dashboard
constantly lights when ignition switch is
set to the “Ⅱ” position, it indicates a
failure in mechanical part of brake system
or low brake fluid level.
Check the liquid level of the brake fluid at
regular intervals as required.
INTRODUCTION OF DRIVING
Be sure to make air flow to
the front brake unblocked if the front
spoiler is mounted on the body,
otherwise, the braking system may
overheat or reduce its braking
efficency due to bad abstraction of
heat.
The brake booster is
controlled by the engine vacuum, and
the unit works only when the engine
OPERATION
DESCRIPTION FOR
THE BRAKING
SYSTEM
It is normal for the braking system to
generate some noises occasionally. But, if
it make sounds like grinding between
metals or screams, the brake discs may
have been heavily worn and need to be
replaced. Now, deliver the car to Chery
Authorized Service Station for repair.
Deliver the car to Chery Authorized
Service Station for repair if there are
consecutive chattering or vibrations being
transferred to the steering wheel when
braking.
A new brake lining must go through a
running-in before reaching its optimal
braking effect. The braking-effect will fall
a little in the initial 200 kilometer. In this
case, apply larger force on the pedal
properly to compensate the braking-effect.
This point also applies to the new brake
lining replaced.
Wear status of brake lining depends
greatly on operating mode and driving
method. For a vehicle mainly used in
urban traffic, the working conditions of its
brake linings is very hard; therefore, be
sure to send your vehicle to a Chery
Authorized Service Station to check the
thickness of the brake linings or replace
them at the specified maintenance
kilometrage.
When running downgrade, shift to a lower
gear timely to make full use of the
engine’s braking action for reducing the
load of the braking system. At this time,
do not keep pushing down the brake pedal
even braking is needed.
Damping brake disc may reduce the
braking efficiency. After driving through
water, rainstorm or car washing, push
brake pedal gently to make brake disc and
brake lining rub to generate heat, which
will evaporate the water and restore the
braking effect.
BRAKE BOOSTER:
INTRODUCTION OF DRIVING
Each pedal could be pushed
down to the floor and could restore
fully and move freely.
Though ABS can ensure the
optimal damping-effect, the stopping
distances may vary greatly with
traffic surfaces. ABS can not always
ensure to reduce the stopping
distances on all road surfaces. For
In case the brake booster is unable to work
because of the vehicle’s being towed or
self failure, apply a larger force on the
pedal to compensate the booster’s effect.
Therefore, do not lay foot pad or other
coverings on the floor around the pedal. If
indeed necessary, be sure that the foot pad
laid will not hinder the movement of the
pedal and will not slide itself.
ANTILOCK BRAKE
SYSTEM ABS( )
ABS can avoid the wheel sticking. It can
even make the car hold turning ability
during emergency braking, which allows
you to avoid the obstructions.
ACTIONS OF ABS
ABS only functions during service braking.
When braking, the brake pedal’s pulsating
accompanying with noises indicates that
ABS is working, and the pulsating and
noises are normal. At this time, do not
release the brake pedal.
UTILIZING ABS TO
BRAKE
Keep pushing down the brake pedal in full
force in emergency may start ABS
immediately, which allow you to control
the turning and avoid the obstructions
where enough space is available.
We recommend you firstly getting familiar
with this brake technique, but avoid taking
any unnecessary risk.
INTRODUCTION OF DRIVING
During traveling, if ABS
warning lamp is found to light, it
indicates a failure in circuit part of
SELF-CHECKING OF
ABS
ABS will perform self-checking after the
vehicle starts. It is normal that you can
hear some mechanical noises during this
course.
Important principle in
utilizing ABS to brake
1. Push down brake
pedal at full tilt and
hold.
2. Turn steering wheel
to round the obstacle.
No matter how violent
the braking is, you can
always maintain
operating control
performance during
turning.
INTRODUCTION OF DRIVING
Pull up the handle of hand
brake before leaving the car.
HAND BRAKE
After parking, strain the hand brake
upwards to prevent car sliding due to
neglect.
When pulling up hand brake with ignition
switch turned on, the parking brake
indicator light will light. To apply hand
brake, pull its handle up.
To release hand brake, slightly pull its
handle, press down the release button
under the handle and just push the button
down.
The hand brake applies action on the rear
wheel. Push down the brake pedal while
pulling up the hand brake, which will
facilitate the hand brake’s pulling up.
OPERATIONS OF MANUAL
TRANSMISSION
Methods and notices for use/operation:
When shifting gear, fully apply
clutch pedal and then control shift
lever to shift gear after separating
transmission input shaft from engine
power.
When the vehicle runs downhill or
makes a turn, please shift into some
low gear and it is not allowed that
the vehicle coasts under the
condition that the clutch is released.
When transmission shifts from lower
gear to higher gear, do not perform
gear-jumping, otherwise life of
synchronizer will be shortened.
No flap (i.e. rapid push and release)
is allowed for gear shifting and you
shall hold the shift lever all the time
during the procedure so as to
considerably reduce the sliding
friction time of synchronizer locking
ring as well as their wear and tear.
During the driving, you shall not put
your hand onto the gearshift lever;
otherwise it will cause the shift forks
to be rapidly worn.
If the transmission sends out any
abnormal sound, it is obviously
