y ou must read the relating chap ters in t his
manual.

Safety and environmental protection

We must shoulder our
obligatory responsibilities and

obligations in the effort of
environmental protection. It is an
important procedure to properly use a
vehicle and dispose wasted cleaning
articles as well as lubricants in accordance
with relating regulations so as to achieve
this goal. In this manual, arboraceous
symbol is used to highlight the

above-mentioned information.

 Inspection of a New

Vehicle

Prior to hand over the v ehicle to y ou, t he
dealer of Chery Automobile has already
carried out insp ection in accordance with
the provision specified by Chery Company.
The dealer should fill in the date of vehicle
delivery in the “Vehicle Delivery and
Insp ection Record”, and stamp his official
seal of specific dealer.

T he dealer w il l ch eck t he p erf ormanc e of
an ent ire car in accor dance wit h “Vehicle
Sales and Delivery Card of Chery
Automobile", and introduce common
knowledge of using the vehicle, then the
sales clerk and user sign their names to

complete the purchase.

 Running-In of a New

Vehicle

Owing to machining and assembling
errors, the frictional resistance between the
moving parts of a new vehicle will be
much larger than normal condition at t he
initial stage. The running-in effe ct of the
initial stage has considerable influences on
the vehicle’s service life, operational
reliability, and economy. So the using of a
new vehicle must strictly comply with
specifications on running-in.

Specification of Running in
Within 1,000 Km :

 Full speed is absolutely

impermissible;

Brief Introduction

6

 In general, it shall not exceed 100km

/ h;

 Each ge ar shall avoid runnin g at ful l

throttle.

Specification of Running in

within the Range of 1,000 - 1,500
KM:

 It can gradually increase to the

maximum speed or run at the
maximum allowable speed of the
engine.

Attentions Should be Paid after
the Period of Running In:

When driving a veh icle with sp eed meter,
t he allow able ma xi mum t rans ient speed is
6000 r/min. When manually shift the
gear, if the cursor of sp eedometer reaches

the red indication area, it must switch into
the adjacent high gear.

Unnecessary high sp eed of engine should
be avoided. Change up as soon as possible
is favorable for fuel saving, work noise
decrease as well as environmental
pollution reduction.

However, engine sp eed should not be too
slow when cruise, only when the engine is
overloaded should it is necessary to shift
down.

When a vehicl e is cold, no matter whether
it is on neutral position or driving on
certain gear, the engine should not work at
maximum speed.

When using a new tire, at t he beginning it
has no optimal adhesive force. Hence,
running-in for first-life tire is also quite

necessary. Under such circumstance, when
driving during the first 100 km, it ought to
be relatively slow, and the driver should be
extraordinarily cautious.

Running-in for the new friction lining of
brake is also quite necessary. When
driving during the first 200 km, ideal
friction of the brake is not available. In
this phase, if the braking is co mp aratively
poor, the driver can conduct properly
larger pedal pressure. This action is also
applicable to the newly replaced brake
friction lining.

Aft er 800 km of cruise, the wheel nut of a
new vehicle must be a gain screwed down
to specified torque. Refer to the chapter
"Sp ecificat ion Parameters" in this manual
for proper torque value. Similarly, if a

Brief Introduction

7

whe el is r ep lac ed or a w heel nut ha s ever
been loosened, after 800 km of cruise, the
wheel nut should be again screwed down
according to specified torque value.

 One-to-On e Service

To provide bett er vehicle services as wel l
as app licat ion, a Cher y vehi cle de aler w il l

when y ou purchase a car. If y ou have any
problems during the process of driving,
please contact your consultant, who will

Seat Belt Precaution
Measure

To protect the passenger, the entire
passenger must correctly use seatbelt
during dr ivin g. One seatbelt for only one
p erson, and those children under 6 y ears
old are not suitable to use seatbelt, and
y ou should assembly proper child seat or
assistant cushion for your child.

！Notice

Passengers may get hurt in a collision or
emergent st op , so they must use seatbelt
at anytime. Do not use one belt by several
people. Do not put anything hard or
fragile in the pocket or clothes clinging to
t he s eat belt . M isus age of t he s eatbe lt will
cause serious damage. Do not change the
seatbelt or attach any equipment which
will affect the employment of the seatbelt.
The worn seatbelt cannot be used any
more which will probably affect the
safety of the people.

When us ing a seatbelt, p lease use it and
maintain the belt and child protection
system with correct method in order to
decreas e t he damage to the p eople in a
collision or emergent stop.

！Notice

M isusage of the seatbelt may cause
damage or even death to people. The
seatbelt should be firm and the seat
backrest should be adjusted to vertical.
Do not lean on the backrest w hen driving
the car. D o not us e it if t he belt tw isted.
Do not tie the belt cross down t he arm
which should be at the middle of the
shoulder, and also do not w rap it around
the head or neck. Tie it clinging t o the
buttocks but not waist. If the seatbelt tied
too loosely, it will increase the rate of
hurt to people because the body will slide
under a loose belt. The loose button of
the seat belt should face outside. Insert
the pin of the belt into the appointed
connection lock. Do not p ut anything at
the shield board hatch of the seatbelt to
prevent it from getting stuck. If it gets
stuck, the only way is to entangle the
entire belt int o the reel and then p ull the
ideal length out according to the need.

Maintenance of the Seat
Belt

The s eat belt s houl d be maint ain ed cl ean
and dry, avoiding any pollution by
polishing composition, oil, chemical,
especially by t he acid of t he accumulator.
Please wash with litmusless soap . D o not
blanch or dye the belt which will
p robably do harm to the belt . Prevent the
seat belt from any sharp-edged things.
Check the belt re gularly for any dama ge
and replace thos e worn ones in time. The
over strained belt should be replaced after
an accident. Chery suggests replacing all
the components of the seatbelt after a
collision. But after a slight collision, if
the Chery Service Station does not check
out any damage, and all the components
can work normally, there is no need to
replace. If there is any damage or false
with the seat belt and its components
which has not been used in an accident,
they also need to be tested and replaced if
necessary.

！Notice

The worn seat belt may
c ause serious damage, s o che ck the
seat belt components regularly.
After a c ollis ion, you mus t take all
the seat belt components to the
Chery Service Station for a check
and replace them according to the
need. If t he belt has been damaged
or polluted, it must be replaced.
After a serious collision, the seat
belt components must be replaced
no matter there is evident damage
or not. If the s eat belt is not suitable,
it will arouse much more serious
damage. Do not c hange seatbelt at
will.

For pregnant woman

protection system will be safer if it is
assembled on the back seat rather than
the front seat.

！Notice

Infants and children should be kept in the
children protection system. Do not
assemble the backward children
prot ection system on the front seat with
air bag.

If the children protection system is
assembled on the front seat, child will
probably be seriously hurt when the air
bag char ged and inflated.

Please assemble the children protection
system on the back seat as possible as
you can. If it must be ass embled on the
front passenger seat, the seat should be
adjusted back as possible.

！Notice

during a smooth running.

There is a sens itive reel on t he seat belt
which is used to lock the seat belt in
violent acceleration and deceleration.
Please do not test the lock of the seat belt
by rush forward forcibly. This kind of
seat belt does not need to adjust the
length which will automatically adjust
according to the movement of the

function.

Air Bag

SRS can provide additional protection for
the driver and pas s enger at t he fr ont s eat
in an acc ident to prevent t heir head and
chest from injury.
When serious collision in face or in the
front range of 30

, the air bag will
charge and expand, and sound of
explosion will be heard with a little
smoke which is harmless.
There is no security system can p rovide
entire protection in a serious collision.
You cannot judge whether the air bag has
exp anded or not only with naked ey es. In
some accidents which the air bag did not

expand, the excess damage proved that
the car had absorbed a great deal of
bounce energy, so there is no need for air
bag. In other serious collision accidences,
suc h as coll is ion at t he ch as sis, t he body
may not be damaged in large scale but
also will cause the air bag explode.

！Notice

Pleas e t ie up t he seat be lt for the s ake of

circumstances (including fully loaded).

Your car is equipped with diagonal
crossed brake system. The front wheel is
equipped with disc brake, and the rear
wheel is equipped with drum brake.
If the first brake oil path failed, the car
can still brake with the second oil path.
When this happens, y ou need to step on
the brake pedal with more strength. The
brake distance will be prolonged. Please
go to t he Chery Service Stat ion to check
the brake system before continuing with

your drive.
If the brake pedal is lower than before,
you need to adjust the rear drum brake. If
this happens, please test your car forward
and backward and test the brake in all
directions to find out the reason.
If the pedal does not get back or the
distance is t oo long, p lease cont act wit h
Chery Service Station, because this
probably is a signal for the fault in brake.
