deviations, the frication resistances

between the moving components of the

new vehicle at the initial stage of

operation will be much greater than the

effects of the vehicle at the initial stage of

operation will exert great influence on the

use lifetime, working reliability and

economy of the vehicle, therefore, the use

of new vehicle must abide by the run in

Summary

regulations strictly.

Run in Regulation within 1,000
km

y Full speed driving is absolutely

prohibited.

y Generally, do not drive the vehicle at

the speed above 100 km/h.

y Avoid driving at the top speed at

whichever gear.

Run in Regulation from 1,000 km
to 1,500 km

y Increase to the top speed gradually or

drive at the allowable max engine

speed.

Notice during Run in Period

For the driving of vehicles with engine

tachometer, the allowed short period top

engine speed is 6,000 r/min. During the

manual gearshift, make sure to shift to the

next high gear when the engine tachometer

indicator reached red indication area at the

latest.

Avoid the running of engine at

unnecessary high speed. The

earliest shift to high gear will help save the

fuel, reduce the working noise as well as

diminish the environmental pollution.

The engine speed should not be excessive

low during driving. Shift to proper gear at

reasonable time.

When at cold condition, do not run the

engine at top speed no matter at neutral

gear or any other drive gear.

The new tires don’t have best adhesion at

the beginning of use; therefore, the tires

also need run in. The vehicle speed should

be relative low during first 100 km driving

and the driving should be extremely

careful.

The new brake friction lining also needs

run in, since the brake doesn't have ideal

friction force during first 200 km driving.

During this period the brake effects are a

little poor, therefore the pressure on brake

pedal may be reasonably increased. Such

condition also applies to the each time

when replaced with new friction lining.

When the new vehicle traveled for 800km,

the wheel nuts must be re-tightened to the

specified torque. Please refer to the

chapter “Specification and Parameters” of

this manual for correct torque values. Also,

Summary

Start

Preparation before Start

The engine start is controlled by the
engine electrical control system.

Do not step the accelerator before start
and during start when start the
electrical injection engine. The
accelerator should be used only when
having difficult start. Please refer to the
section “Engine Start” for the details of
vehicle start.

The long period high speed
idling running of the engine

will result the overheating of
the engine and the exhaust system,
which may result the danger of fire or
other damages. Therefore, do not park,
idling run or driving on the ground
covered with dry grass and other dry
coverings. The exhaust system will
increase the temperature of the engine

compartment and the exhaust pipe that
may cause fire.

Do not start the vehicle in the
closed garage or other closed

locations since the vehicle
exhaust gas is poisonous. Make sure to
open the garage gate before the engine
start. Refer to the section “Caution of
Vehicle Exhaust Fume” for details.

Safety Notice

The idle speed of the engine is
controlled by the electrical control
system. The idle speed at engine start is
relevant high to help increase the
engine temperature. The idle speed
should reduce automatically when the
engine temperature is increased. Please
deliver your vehicle to the Chery
authorized service station for overhaul
if the idle speed can’t reduce
automatically. Do not run the engine at
the speed higher than specified idle
speed for more than 10 min.

Before Vehicle Start

1. Make sure all passengers are

fastened with safety belt. Please
refer to the chapter "Seat and
Safety Protection Device” for the
details of safety belt and its
correct operation method.

2. Make sure the front head lamp

and other electrical fittings are
turned off.

3. Make sure to lift up the

handbrake.

4. Make sure that the gear selector

lever is at neutral gear or parking
gear.

5. Switch the ignition switch to

(ON), but not to (START).

If the rotation of the key needs great
effort, it may rotate the steering around,
till the key can rotate freely. The
occurrence of such condition may have
following causes:

y Deflection of front wheel.
y The front wheel touched with the

road curb.

Driving

35

y The steering wheel is rotated

during get-on and get-off
(self-lock of the steering wheel).

6. At the same time when the

ignition key is turned on, make
sure that the dashboard alarm
lamp lights shortly. If negative,
then it needs to deliver your
vehicle to the Chery authorized
service station for overhaul.

If the driver safety belt is fastened
before turn on the ignition key, then the
safety belt alarm lamp won’t light.

Engine Start

1. Rotate the ignition switch to the

START position but not step
down the accelerator (if equipped
with automatic transmission,
make sure to confirm that the
gearshift lever is at P or N gear
before start), release the key after
the engine start, and the key will
return to ON position.

2. IF the temperature is higher than

-12° C, then the engine should
not be started within 5 s during

the first start. Instead, it should
rotate the key to the OFF position
and wait for 10 s before retry.

3. IF the temperature is lower than

-12° C, then the engine should
not be started within 15 s during
the first start. Instead, it should
rotate the key to the OFF position
and wait for 10 s before retry. If
the two consecutive starts all fails,
then step the accelerator to the
end and hold before rotate the
key to the START position. After
the engine start, release the key
and release the accelerator pedal
slowly following the increasing
of the engine speed.

4. After the engine start, run at idle

speed for several seconds, step
down the clutch, shift to the drive
gear, release the handbrake and
prepare the driving.

5. The normal environment

temperature condition of the
engine start is -25 ~40 (it ℃℃
may present other abnormal
conditions when the environment
temperate is out of such scope).

Caution of Vehicle
Exhaust Fume

In despite of without color or smell, the
vehicle exhaust fume contains the
carbon monoxide, of which the danger
must be cautioned. The certain contents
in the engine exhaust gas and the
certain chemicals contained or emitted
by certain vehicle components may
result the carcinogen, the defect of the
new born or other damage of the
genital system.

If smelled the fume
peculiar smell within the
vehicle, please deliver your

vehicle to the Chery
authorized service station for
overhaul immediately. Do not
continue to drive. The exhaust fume is
one poisonous substance that may
endanger the life.

The exhaust system and the vehicle
ventilation system should be checked
under following conditions:

y When the vehicle is lifted for

overhaul.

Driving

36

y When the sound of exhaust

system is changed.

y When the vehicle is damage due

to the collision.

Ventilation Notice

When the vehicle is parked in the open
field for long period idle or when the
persons rest in the vehicle, the window
should be opened for at lease 2.5 cm.
Or open the A/C system ventilation
function to let the fresh air into the
vehicle.

Clean the snow, leaf fall or
other foreign articles that

stocked in the air inlet so
as to improve the vehicle ventilation
capability.

Engine Control System
Adaptive Function

If the battery cable is once removed
from the battery before refit, then the
vehicle may present some abnormal
evidences during the initial period of
the driving. This is the engine control
system is re-learn to adapt to the engine,
which belongs to normal condition.

Engine Speed Limit

The engine speed is limited by the
electrical control unit (ECU) so as to
protect the engine.

Engine Turn-Off





Release the accelerator pedal. Wait the
engine to lower to idle speed and then
turn off the ignition switch.

Please do not step down the
accelerator pedal before
turn off the engine.

After long period high speed driving,
do not turn off the engine immediately
after parking. Run the engine at the
speed higher than idle speed for two

通风口

Driving

37

more minutes so as to lower the engine
temperature gradually.

Turn off the ignition switch, the

temperature will still be
very high after the turn-off

of the engine and the
radiator electrical cooling fan will still
keep running. Even the cooling fan
stops running, it may run suddenly
again due to excessive high
temperature. Therefore, cautions
should be taken when working near
the engine so as to avoid the scalding.

Brake

Dual-Circuit Brake System

Your vehicle is equipped with

dual-corner dual-circuit brake system.
The remaining circuit will still keep
effective operation even if one circuit
has fault.

In case of the failure of one
brake circuit, it will needs

more force to step down
the brake pedal and the stop distance
will be lengthened. In case of the
occurrence of such condition, please
deliver your vehicle to the Chery
authorized service station for
overhaul before you continue your
journey.

Brake Liquid

If the brake system alarm lamp doesn’t
turn off upon the release of the
handbrake, it indicates that the brake
system has trouble or the brake liquid
level is too low.

The brake liquid level should be
checked periodically in accordance
with the requirements.

Please refill with brake
liquid immediately to
maintain the liquid level at

MAX marking and deliver your

vehicle to the Chery authorized
service station for the checking of the
brake system.

Operation Instruction of
Brake System

It’s quite normal if the brake system
issues noise occasionally. The long
period grinding or screaming noise
between the metal and the metal may
indicate that the brake disc was
severely worn out and should be
replaced. At that time, please deliver
your vehicle to the Chery authorized
service station for overhaul.

If there have consecutive shake or
shock transmitted to the steering wheel
during braking, please deliver your
vehicle to Chery authorized service
station for overhaul immediately.

The new brake lining can achieve best
brake effects only after run in. The
brake effects may be slightly lowered
within the initial 200 km. Under such
condition, the brake effects can be
compensated by enhancing the proper
force on the pedal. This essential point
also applies to the new brake lining

Driving

38

All pedals should be
stepped down to the
end and should fully
return with free

after replacement.

The worn-out status of the brake lining
depends on the working condition and
driving method to large extent. For the
vehicles mainly for city transportation,
the working condition of the brake
lining is relatively poor due to the
frequent start and stop. Therefore,
make sure to deliver your vehicle to the
Chery authorized service station for the
checking of brake lining thickness or
the replacement of brake lining in
accordance with the maintenance
mileage specified in the Maintenance.

For downward slope driving, it should
shift to low gear at proper time so as to
sufficiently take advantage of the brake
effects of the engine and reduce the
load of brake system. At that moment,
the brake pedal should be stepped
down all the time even the braking is
required.

The moisture brake disc will reduce the
brake efficiency. After paddling, heavy
rain or car wash, it should step down
the brake pedal slightly to generate
friction heat between the brake disc and
the brake lining so as to evaporate the

water and resume brake effects.

If the vehicle is equipped

with front boiler, it should
ensure the free airflow to the front
brake; otherwise the brake system may
overheats due to poor heat radiation to
reduce the brake effects.

Brake Booster:

If the brake booster can’t function
because the vehicle is trailed or due to
its own fault, then it needs to enhance
the stepping force to compensate the
boosting effects of the booster.

Therefore, it’s preferable not to place
the foot cushion or other covering on
the floor around the pedal. If really
needed, then make sure that the
placement of foot cushion won’t
obstruct the pedal movement without
any sliding.

The brake booster is subject to the

control of engine vacuum
booster. This device will act

only when the engine is
running. Therefore, do not turn off the
engine for sliding when driving on
downward slopes.

Anti-lock Brake System
(ABS)

The anti-lock brake system can avoid
the lock of the wheels that can keep the
steering performance of the vehicle
even under emergent braking so as to
escape the obstacles.

Reaction of ABS

Driving

39

The anti-lock brake system will not
effect under normal brake period and
will effect only when the wheels are
almost locked. During braking, the
pulse movement of the brake pedal
together with the noise indicates that
the ABS is under working. Such pulse
movement and noise are normal. At
such moment, do not release the pedal.

Braking Taking Advantage of
ABS

The consecutive stepping down of the
brake pedal with full force under
emergent condition will actuate the
antilock brake system immediately to
keep the control of steering. If with
enough space, you still can escape the
obstacles.

It’s recommended that you should get
familiar with this brake technology
firstly; however, any unnecessary
adventures should be avoided.

Though ABS can ensure
the best brake effects,,

the stop distance will
have great difference depending
on the road conditions. The ABS

can’t always make sure to reduce
the braking distance, such as on
sand or snow ground, the braking
distance of the vehicle with ABS
may be much longer than the one
of the vehicle without ABS. Also,
taking advantage of ABS can’t
eliminate the dangers arising
from the excessive short distance
with foregoing vehicle, paddling,
excessive fast turn or poor road as
well as avoid the accidents arising
from the careless and incorrect
driving. Please drive carefully and
decelerate the driving at turns.

ABS Self-Examination

The ABS will conduct the
self-examination after the vehicle start.
The mechanical noise can be heard
during this period, which is quite
normal.

The lighting of ABS alarm
lamp during driving indicates

the fault in the ABS system,
at that moment the mechanical system
can function the normal brake effects,

which should be noticed during
driving. Please contact with Chery
authorized service station timely to
repair the ABS system.

Handbrake

Pull up the handbrake handle after
parking so as to avoid the humping due
to temporary carelessness.

The parking brake lamp will light when
applied with handbrake under the
condition that the ignition switch is
turned on.

Pull up the handbrake lever when to
use handbrake.

When to release the handbrake, pull up
the handbrake lever slightly, push down
the release button at the end of the
handle and push downward.

The handbrake is applied on the rear
wheels. It can step down the brake
pedal at the same time the handbrake is
pulled up so that it can pull up the

handbrake much easier.

gearshift lever is always at left.

4. Under the manual gearshift mode,
shift the gear selector lever towards +
mark to upshift the transmission to the
next high gear; shift the gear selector
lever towards – mark to downshift the
transmission to the next low gear.

Make sure to pull up the
handbrake handle before
leaving the vehicle.

This position can be shifted to
only when the vehicle is
completely still.

5. Under manual gearshift mode, the
selected gear can be accepted only
when the gearshift request conforms
with the requirements of the
transmission controller.

6. The braking no matter under manual
gearshift mode or the automatic
gearshift mode can achieve the
automatic gearshift function without
any gearshift operation;

7. The gear selector lever at “N” or “P”
position during driving is strictly
prohibited; otherwise the transmission
will be damaged, for that Chery
Automobile Co., Ltd. will not be liable
for warranty.

8. In order to avoid the mis-operation
of the gearshift lever, please check if
the operating lever is shifted to the
correct position; After operation, make
sure to check the position of gear
selector lever by means of the
instrument display.

Gear Selector Lever Lock

When to shift the gearshift lever from
“P” to “R”, from “N” to “R”, or from
“R” to “P”, make sure to step down the
brake and push down the stop button
(shown in above figure) on the
gearshift lever handle to relieve the
gearshift lever lock. When to shift from
“N” to “D”, make sure to step down the

brake pedal, disregarding the
push-down of the stop button on the
gearshift lever handle; It’s unnecessary
to push down the stop button when
shift the gearshift lever within other
positions.

Gear Display

When the ignition switch is turned on,
the gear selector lever position will be
displayed on the central screen of the
dashboard.

The display of various gears is shown
in following figures:

Display of P Position:

screen. The figure takes gear 2 for
instance.

Start

Keep the engine at idle speed, step
down the brake pedal, move the
gearshift lever to drive gear, release the
brake pedal slowly, at the same time
step down the accelerator pedal slightly
and the vehicle will start drive slowly.

Under special conditions (such as on
the road covered with snow and ice), it
may select gear 2 under manual
gearshift mode as the start gear.

The vehicles with automatic
transmission can’t be started

by trailing or pulling the
vehicles. Please conduct jumper start
by means of connecting the jumper
cable to the support battery.

Forced Downshift (Kick Down)

This automatic transmission has
internal nominal Kick Down mode.
When on upward abrupt slopes or at
overdrive, the transmission will shift to
low speed gear from high speed gear
automatically by stepping down and
holding the accelerator pedal to the end
at gear D so as to achieve the require
great torque.

The vehicle will shock slightly at the
same time when at forced downshift for
acceleration, which is the effects of
forced downshift instead of the engine
acceleration tremble. All above are
related to the rapid stepping down of
accelerator, which are the important
driving essentials the driver must
master.

It’s difficult to downshift for
acceleration if stepping down the
accelerator slowly. If stepping down
the accelerator to the half or two third
of stroke, it’s impossible to obtain
sufficient acceleration horsepower
(torque), even though it can obtain the
increasing of some horsepower (torque).
That’s the cause why the customers

Driving

45

complained low horsepower (torque)
during driving. In addition, when
stepping down the accelerator slowly
for acceleration, the engine tremble
will even get bigger. Therefore, it
should be avoided.

Midway Stop

When encountered with the red light or
any other conditions that required the
temporary stop, release the accelerator
pedal and step down the brake pedal,
with the gear selector lever remained at
current position. When start again,
release the brake pedal and step down
the accelerator pedal.

Driving Essentials on Various
Road Conditions

It’s recommended to use gear D and
step down the accelerator to the end
rapidly to obtain better acceleration
performance on the flat roads with
small gradient.

It’s recommended to use gear 3 or gear
2 under manual gearshift mode and
step down the accelerator pedal rapidly

to obtain better acceleration
performance on the roads with medium
gradient.

It’s recommended to use gear 1 or gear
2 under manual gearshift mode instead
of gear D and step down the accelerator
pedal rapidly to obtain better
acceleration performance on the roads
with large gradient.

On downward slopes, the overlong
persistent braking period will result the
weakening of the brake performance
due to overheating. At that moment, the
engine brake should be sufficiently
utilized to reduce the vehicle speed.

The engine brake is the braking effects
achieved by means of the low gear
speed ratio of the engine deceleration
and transmission in such manner of
shifting the transmission to low gear
and releasing the accelerator pedal
during journey. The lower the gear is,
the better the engine braking effects are.
It’s recommended to use gear 2 or gear
1 under manual gearshift mode on the
downward slopes with extreme large
gradient or length.

For the downward slopes with extreme

large gradient, in order to obtain the
bigger braking effects, please use
manual gearshift mode and shift to
lowest gear before downward slopes.

If the drive wheel is entrapped in the
mud or the snow, try to shake the
vehicle by repeated forward/backup.
Shift the gear selector lever between
“D” and “R” repeatedly and step down
the accelerator pedal slightly. In order
to enhance the effects, it may shift to
“R” when the vehicle is still moving
forward and vice versa. The long
period gearshift (shaking) between
forward and backup should be avoided,
which will result the excessive
worn-out of the transmission. The
shaking period should not exceed one
minute. Try to keep the engine at low
speed as far as possible during shaking.

During the high speed
vehicle driving, the

gearshift to the low gear
will result the great impact to the
engine and the transmission that will
result the damage of the engine and
the transmission. The low gear should
be shifted to only when the vehicle
speed is lowered to the speed

Driving

46

allowable for downshift.

Operation of Automatic
Transmission ( )

Use/Operation Method and Notices:

y During gearshift, fully step down

the clutch pedal to release the
driver from the engine torque and
then operate the gearshift lever
for gearshift rapidly.

y The low speed gear should be

used for downward slopes and
turns. The slide with disengaged
clutch is not allowed.

y When shift the transmission from

low gear to high gear, do not
conduct gear skip operation;
otherwise the service life of the
synchronizer will be affected.

y The forced gearshift by means of

synchronizer to start the engine
under neutral gear and engine
flameout status is strictly
prohibited; otherwise the service
life of the synchronizer will be

affected.

y The flap method (namely the

operation method of one pulling
and one releasing) is strictly
prohibited during gearshift.
Please always hold the
transmission lever with hand so
as to greatly reduce the slide and
friction time and the worn-out of
the synchronizer lock ring.

y Do not leave your hand on the

gear selector lever during driving;
otherwise it will result the early
worn-out of the gearshift fork.

y In case of the detection of any

abnormal evidences such as
abnormal noise of the
transmission or the obvious
heavier operation during use,
please stop the vehicle for
inspection immediately and
continue the driving once the
trouble is resolved.

S teering

In order to avoid the damage of power

steering system:

y The time when rotating the

steering wheel to the end (to left
dead point and right dead point)
should not exceed 10 s during
engine running.

y When the power steering liquid in

the power steering liquid reservoir
is lower than MIN mark, please
refill with power steering liquid
immediately. Do not drive the
vehicle before refill.

In case of trouble of power steering
system or the turn-off of the engine, the
vehicle will lose the steering boost. You
still can rotate the steering wheel,
provided with great strength.

In case of vehicle deflection or tremble
during the driving, please check the
following items:

y Whether the tire pressure is

insufficient.

y Whether the tire is worn evenly.
y Whether the suspension

components is loosened or worn
out.

Driving

47

y Whether the steering components

is loosened or worn out.

y Whether the wheel alignment is

correct.

Paddling

If it’s must to paddle during journey,
make sure to drive slowly and carefully,
especially when having no knowledge
of the water conditions. Do not drive
forward further if the water can
submerge the wheel hub.

During paddling, the traction force and
the brake performance of the vehicle
will be lowered and the vehicle will
have the danger of flameout.

In case of the water ingress into the
intake pipe of the engine, it will cause
the serious damage of the engine. The
deeper paddling will result the water
ingress into the transmission through
the transmission air vent, which will
result the damage of the transmission.

After paddling, make sure to drive
slowly and step down the brake pedal
slightly for several times to remove the

water from the brake. The water on the
brake will lower the brake
performance.

Three-Way Catalytic
Converter

The catalytic converter will help reduce
the pollution of exhaust gas.

Make sure to use unleaded
fuel. The leaded fuel will

result the permanent
damage of the catalytic converter
and the oxygen sensor. Chery
Automobile Co., Ltd. will not be
liable for any damages arisen from
the use of leaded fuel. Such
damages are excluded from the
warranty scope. If you refill with
leaded fuel accidentally, please
contact with the nearest Chery
authorized service station.

The vehicles with gasoline engine are
equipped with narrow refill opening
that only accommodates the unleaded
gasoline pump refuelling gun nozzle.

During the running of the
gasoline engine, it’s

absolutely not allowable to
pull out the high voltage line of the
ignition coil. Check if the engine
functions normally by means of
cylinder flameout method or observe
the jump spark condition of the spark
plug; otherwise the three-way
catalytic converter will be damaged.

Unleaded Gasoline

Driving

48

Notice:

The three-way catalytic converter will
be getting very hot if the engine is
under continuous running, therefore,
notice to wear the protective glove
during repair so as to avoid the
scalding.

Drive the Vehicle Equipped
with Catalytic Converter

In case of the evidence of
poor engine ignition or the

lowered performance during
driving, please drive at low speed to
the nearest Chery authorized service
station. Do not drive at large
accelerator.

Please avoid the condition that will
result the ingress of the un-combusted
or partial un-combusted fuels into the
catalytic converter, especially when the
engine is at high temperature.

The following conditions should
be avoided:

y Run out of fuel.
y Unnecessary long period start of

the engine.

y Run the engine under the

condition that one spark plug
cable terminal is removed.

y Start the vehicle with the engine

still at working temperature by
means of pulling or hauling.

y Turn off the ignition switch

during driving.

Parking

Do not park, idle or drive the vehicle
on the dry leaves or grass. Even the
engine is turned off, the exhaust within
short period will continue the radiation
of equivalent heat, and therefore, it still
has potential fire danger.

Make sure to turn off the ignition
switch before leaving the vehicle. Do
not run the engine when no one in the
vehicle. The negligence of this point
may result the accident movement of
the vehicle, which will result the body
injury or property damage.

Chassis Protection

Your vehicle is equipped with heat
insulation plate. Do not apply the paint
on the body of heat insulation plate,
exhaust pipe or catalytic converter or
the surrounding areas. Do not
disassemble the heat insulation plate.

Fuel Consumption

The fuel consumption is
influenced by following
factors:

Selection of Vehicle Speed or
Gear

Fuel consumption

Vehicle speed

Driving

49

The above figure illustrates
how the fuel consumption is

influenced by the selection of
vehicle speed and gear. Maintaining at
low gear to improve the acceleration
performance will result the obvious
higher fuel consumption.

Stroke Distance/Engine
Temperature

The frequent cold vehicle start and the
short distance journeys will result the
obvious increasing of the fuel
consumption.

Traffic and Road Condition

The crowded traffic, upward slopes,
multi curved routines and rough roads
will cause detrimental influence on the
fuel consumption.

Good Driving Habits

The prediction of danger and keeping
safe driving distance with foregoing
vehicle will not only reduce the fuel

consumption but also reduce the
wearing and noise of the brake.

It’s recommended to turn off
the engine during traffic jam
or long period waiting such

as red light.

The 3 min engine idle is equivalent to
driving for 1 km.

Vehicle Load Status

The increasing of vehicle load will
result the higher fuel consumption.

Vehicle Technical S tatus

The low tire pressure or improper
engine and vehicle maintenance also
will result higher fuel consumption.

Essentials for Fuel- Saving
Driving and Environmental
Protection:

y Fuel-saving driving, and use

supplementary electrical loads
only when needed.

y Start without the heating of the

vehicle.

y Use the accelerator smoothly.
y Shift to next higher gear as soon

as possible so as to achieve lower
engine speed.

y Prediction of traffic condition.
y Turn off A/C and rear windscreen

heating immediately whenever
unnecessary.

y Check/adjust the tire pressure

periodically.

y Conduct vehicle maintenance

periodically, preferable conducted
by Chery authorized service
station.

Radiator Fan

The radiator fan is of electrical fan with
the working condition is controlled by
the engine ECU. This switch will
automatically turn on the fan circuit
when the coolant or the engine
compartment reached certain
temperature.

Driving

50

After stop the vehicle and
the engine, the radiator fan

will continue running for
certain period since the engine is still
under hot condition and will stop
running when the engine is cooled to
certain temperature. Even though, the
fan may still start suddenly in case of
the sudden temperature increasing of
the engine compartment due to the
influence of the ambient
environmental temperature (sunshine
exposure or high temperature region).
Therefore, cautions should be taken
when operate in the engine
compartment so as to avoid the
accident.

Instruction:

If the fan isn’t running when the
coolant temperature reached the fan
start temperature, then check the fan
fuse for burn-out. Replace the fuse if
necessary.

The fan speed is independent of the
engine speed and the gearshift to low
gear will not promote the cooling
effects of the fan. Therefore, it’s
unnecessary to shift to low gear
provide that the engine runs smoothly

and the vehicle speed has no obvious
reduction on upward slopes.
