halves of the transmitter apart. Make
sure not to damage the seal.
Separating Transmitter Halves
• Remove and replace the batteries.
Avoid touching the new batteries with
your fingers. Skin oils may cause battery deterioration. If you touch a battery, clean it with rubbing alcohol.
• To reassemble the transmitter case,
snap the two halves together.

Anti-Theft Security Protection
Vehicle Alarm
With the vehicle armed, if an unauthorized person attempts to unlock any
door, this will cause the vehicle alarm
to trigger. When triggered, the vehicle
alarm will cause all directional signals
to flash continuously and will sound
the horn for a few seconds.
Security Lamp
The security lamp is located in the
front of the instrument panel. The security lamp will flash continuously
when the vehicle is armed.
WARNING!
Only when driver door, passenger
doors and back door are fully closed,
can the vehicle be armed. When the
vehicle is in the anti-theft mode, the
following will occur:
•
Driver door, passenger doors and
back door are locked
•
The security lamp will continuously
flash
Electronic Key Identification
Electronic Key Identification utilizes
engine ⬙no-start⬙ technology to greatly
enhance the vehicle safety and vehicle theft prevention system.
The chip, built into each key, integrates the key, electronic anti-theft
equipment and engine control module into an active theft prevention system. If a key is duplicated without the
authorization of the owner, and the
key has no chip containing the electronic information required for the
anti-theft equipment and engine computer, the engine will not start using
the duplicated key, thus decreasing
the probability of vehicle theft.
In the event that you have lost your
vehicle key, you should go to an authorized Chery dealer to obtain a replacement key. The dealer can make a
new key for your vehicle and deactivate your lost key.

from the window path before closing.
Occupant Restraints
Lap/Shoulder Belts
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in
a seat and properly using a seat belt.
Never use a lap/shoulder belt or lap
belt for more than one person. Make
sure that the seat belt is properly fastened without looseness, twists, or obstruction.
WARNING!
A lap belt worn too high can increase
the risk of internal injury in a collision.
The belt forces won’t be at the strong
hip and pelvic bones, but across your
abdomen. Always wear the lap belt as
low and snug as possible.
In a collision, an unrestrained child,
even a tiny baby, can be propelled inside the vehicle if not properly restrained. The force required to hold
even an infant on your lap could become so great that you could not hold
the child, no matter how strong you
are. The child and others can be badly
injured. Any child riding in the vehicle
should be in an appropriate restraint
for the child’s size.
Lap/Shoulder Belt Warning Light
With the ignition switch ON,
this light is illuminated. It
will not turn off until the
driver properly attaches the
seat belt.
Lap/Shoulder Belt Operating
Instructions
The seat belt latch plate is above the
back of the front seat, next to your
shoulder. Grasp the latch plate and
pull out the belt. While pulling out the
belt, slide the latch plate up the webbing as far as necessary to allow the
belt to go around your lap. When the
belt is long enough to fit, insert the
latch plate into the buckle until you
hear a ⬙click⬙.
Chery Automobile Co., Ltd.
24 – BEFORE OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
WARNING!
A belt that is fastened into the wrong
buckle will not protect you properly.
Always buckle your belt into the nearest buckle.
To release the belt, push the red button on the buckle. The belt will automatically retract to its stowed position. If necessary, slide the latch plate
down the webbing to allow the belt to
retract fully.
Central Two-Point Seat Belt for
Rear Seat
This seat belt length cannot be adjusted automatically. The seat belt is
adjusted by an adjustable buckle that
slides along its length to provide the
proper fit for the passenger. When the
belt has been adjusted to fit the passenger, insert the latch plate into the
buckle until you hear a ⬙click⬙, and
then adjust the length of seat belt
manually across your abdomen.
Rear Central Two-Point Seat Belt
WARNING!
A twisted belt cannot perform properly.
In a collision, it could even cut into its
passenger . Be sure the belt is straight.
If you can’t straighten a belt in your vehicle, take it to an authorized Chery
dealer and have it repaired.
Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt
Anchorage
In the driver’s seat and front passenger’s seat, the shoulder belt can be
adjusted upward or downward to position the belt away from the driver’s or
passenger’s neck. Push and fully de-
press the button to release the anchorage, and move it up or down to
the position that fits you best.
Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt
Anchorage
Maintenance for Seat Belt
Inspection Of Seat Belt
The seat belt should be inspected
regularly for damage or frays. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately. Seat belt assemblies must be
replaced after a collision if they have
been damaged.
Chery Automobile Co., Ltd.
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE – 25
WARNING!
Do not disassemble or modify the seat
belt.
Washing Seat Belt
The seat belt should be washed with
vehicle detergent or warm water and
allowed to dry naturally.
WARNING!
Never use chemical detergents, boiled
water, bleach or dye to wash the seat
belt.
Never allow water to enter the belt retractor.
Airbag
The airbags work with the seat belts to
properly restrain the driver and frontseat passenger in the event of a collision.
NOTE:
As the triggered airbags deflate you may see some smoke-like particles. The particles are a normal byproduct of the process that generates
the nontoxic gas used for airbag inflation.
The front occupants must be sitting as
upright as possible in order to be effectively protected.
WARNING!
Always properly position your seat belt
to maintain the proper distance from
the steering wheel. Only then can the
airbag provide optimal protection during a collision.
Front Airbags
Front Airbags
The seat and backrest must be positioned correctly for the airbag to provide optimal protection during a collision. The vertical sitting posture is
best when the lower back is in contact
with the seat backrest as much as possible and the inclination of seat backrest is not over 30 degrees. Never position the front seat too close to the
instrument panel. While driving, the
steering wheel should be held with
the arms slightly flexed. This is an
ideal driving posture, which helps to
decrease the risk of the driver being
Chery Automobile Co., Ltd.
26 – BEFORE OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
injured in a collision in which the airbag does not deploy.
The front airbag will deploy in a moderate to severe frontal collision or
within the scope of left/right 30 degrees collisions. When it touches the
occupant, it instantly deflates to cushion the forward movement of the occupant. An airbag is designed to deploy
in moderate to severe frontal or nearfrontal crash. The airbag will deploy
only if the impact speed is above the
system’s designated threshold level.
WARNING!
Do not put anything on or around the
front airbag covers or attempt to
manually open them. Take your vehicle
to an authorized Chery dealer for steering wheel, steering column and airbag
system service or you could be injured
because of accidental airbag deployment.
Airbag Warning Light
When the ignition switch is in ON, the
warning light in the instrument panel
will be turned on and remain on for
3-4 seconds. If the light does not come
on, remains illuminated after you start
the vehicle, or if it comes on as you
drive, take your vehicle to an authorized Chery dealer for inspection. It is
suggested by the airbag manufacturer
that the airbag should be replaced after 10 years of service because the efficiencies of the inflating agent and airbag deteriorate. If you are not clear
about the service life of your vehicle’s
airbag, your authorized Chery dealer
can answer any questions or address
any concerns you may have. Take your
vehicle only to an authorized Chery
dealer for service.
Child Restraint
Please follow the manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant
or child restraint.
WARNING!
In a collision, an unrestrained child,
even a tiny baby, can become a missile inside the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your
lap could become so great that you
could not hold the child, no matter how
strong you are. The child and others
could be badly injured. Any child riding
in your vehicle should be in a proper
restraint for the child’s size.
NEVER use a backward-facing child
restraint seat on a passenger seat protected by an airbag. A backwardfacing child restraint should only be
used in a rear seat. A backward-facing
child restraint in the front seat may be
struck by a deploying passenger airbag which may cause severe or fatal
injury to the infant.
Chery Automobile Co., Ltd.
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE – 27
For children under 12 years old or
shorter than 150 cm, the special child
restraint must be used properly with
an infant restraint, child restraint, or
with the heightened seat cushion. The
child restraint must be applicable and
government-authorized. Maximum
child safety can be obtained when the
safety seat works together with the
seat belt.
Children who weigh less than 10 kg or
are less than 1 year old should be
placed in the baby bed on the rear
seat with the baby lying flat and on
the bed and restrained. For infants,
use the backward-facing child restraint.
Rearward Facing Child Seat
Children who weigh between 10 kg to
18 kg or are less than 4 years old
should use child restraints on the rear
seat.
Child Restraint Seat
Children who weigh between 18 kg to
36 kg or are between 4 and 12 years
old should sit on the heightened seat
cushion on the rear seat. The adjustable auxiliary seat belt fixed on the
heightened seat cushion can ensure a
child uses the seat belt properly. The
heightened seat cushion positions the

belt away from the child’s neck and
the lap belt should fit across the
child’s abdomen.
Heightened Seat Cushion
WARNING!
Each child restraint is intended for one
child only.
According to local traffic laws, children
are forbidden to sit in the front seat
and should use the applicable child restraints.
Operating Safety Tips
Transporting Passengers
NEVER TRANSPORT PASSENGERS IN
THE CARGO AREA.
WARNING!
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in
these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any area
of your vehicle that is not equipped
with seats and seat belts.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in
a seat and using a seat belt properly.
Locking Your Vehicle
Always remove the key from the ignition switch and lock all doors when
leaving the vehicle unattended, even
in your own driveway or garage. Try to
park your vehicle in a well-lit area and
avoid leaving articles of value exposed.
Exhaust Gas
WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They
contain carbon monoxide (CO), which
is colorless and odorless. Breathing it
can make you unconscious and can
eventually poison you and lead to
death.
Do not run the engine in a closed garage or in confined areas any longer
than needed to move your vehicle in
or out of the area.
If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle with the engine running, adjust
your heating or cooling controls to
force outside air into the vehicle. Set
the blower at high speed.
Chery Automobile Co., Ltd.
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE – 29
If you are required to drive with the
back door open, make sure that all
windows are closed and the climate
control BLOWER switch is set at high
speed. DO NOT use the recirculation
mode.
The best protection against carbon
monoxide entry into the vehicle passenger compartment is a properly
maintained engine exhaust system.
Interior Vehicle Safety Inspection
Seat Belts
Inspect the belt system periodically,
checking for cuts, frays, and loose
parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system.
Front seat belt assemblies must be replaced after a collision. Rear seat belt
assemblies must be replaced after a
collision if they have been damaged
(i.e., bent retractor, torn webbing,
etc.). If there is any question regarding
belt or retractor condition, replace the
belt.
Airbag Warning Light
The light should come on and remain
on for 3-4 seconds as a bulb check
when the ignition switch is first turned
ON. If the light is not lit during starting, see your authorized Chery dealer.
If the light stays on, flickers, or comes
on while driving, have the system
checked by an authorized Chery
dealer.
Defroster
Check the operation by selecting the
defrost mode and place the blower
control on high speed. You should be
able to feel the air directed against
the windshield. See your authorized
Chery dealer for service if your defroster is inoperable.
Exterior Vehicle Safety Inspection
Tires
Examine tires for excessive tread wear
and uneven wear patterns. Check the
tires for the following:
• Stones, nails, glass, or other objects
lodged in the tread
• Tread and sidewall for cuts and cracks
• Proper pressure (including spare)
• Wheel nuts for proper torque
Lights
Have an assistant observe the operation of exterior lights while you work
the controls. Check turn signal and
high beam indicator lights on the instrument panel. Check the following
lights for proper operation:
• Low beam headlights
• High beam headlights
• Turn signals
