BEFORE ENTERING THE CAR

BEFORE DRIVING OFFBREAK-IN PERIOD

Following a few simple precautions for the
first few hundred kilometers can add to
the future performance, economy and long
life of your car.

ï Do not race the engine.
ï Drive at varying speeds, trying not to

"strain" the engine.

ï Avoid hard stops, except in

emergencies.
This will allow the brakes to bed in
properly.

ï Ensure that windows, outside rearview

mirrors and lights are clean, undamaged

and unobstructed.
ï Visually note inflation condition of tires.
ï Check that all lights are working.
ï Check that the area is clear if you are

about to reverse.
ï Check under the vehicle for leaks.

ï Adjust your seating position.
ï Adjust inside and outside mirrors.
ï Ensure that all occupants of the car

have fastened their seat belts.

ï Check the operation of the warning

lights when key is turned to "II" position.
ï Check all gauges.
ï Release the parking brake and ensure

that the brake warning light goes out.
ï Be sure you understand your car and

its equipment and how to operate it

safely.

WARNING

It is the owner's responsibility to
frequently check all lights, signaling
systems and warning indicator lights. It
is important that any malfunction is
corrected promptly to ensure the safety
of you, your passenger and other
drivers.

ï Avoid full-throttle starts.

SEAT BELT PRECAUTIONS

To protect you and your passengers in the
event of an accident, it is recommended that
the seat belts be worn by all occupants
whilst the vehicle is in use. Seat belts should
be worn correctly.

Rear passengers not wearing seat belts are
a danger to the driver and front passenger
in the event of an accident.

The seat belts are designed to be used by
only one person at a time: they are not
suitable for use by children below 6 years
of age. Suitable child seats/booster
cushions should be fitted.

WARNING

It is recommended that pregnant
women should wear a lap-shoulder
belt properly if at all possible. This will
reduce the likelihood of injury to both
the woman and the unborn child. The
lap belts should be worn as low as
possible throughout the pregnancy.

NOTE

If the belt locks when being pulled out,
rewind it completely in the retractor,
then pull it out to the desired length.

WARNING

ï To help reduce the risk of personal

injury in collisions or sudden
maneuvers, use the safety belts
following these instructions on their
proper use, maintenance, and use
with child restraint systems.

ï Children small enough for child

restraints (as indicated on the label
of such restraints) should always be
transported in them. Accident
statistics indicate children are safer
when properly restrained in the rear
seat rather than in the front seat.
Accordingly, a child restraint
system should be placed in the rear
seat.

ï Children who have outgrown child

restraint systems should sit in the
rear seat and be restrained with the
seat belt. If child's seating position
has a shoulder belt which is on or
very close to the face or neck,
move the child close to the center
of the vehicle, slightly inboard of the
shoulder belt, or move the child to
a position without a shoulder belt if
possible.

WARNING

ï Make sure that each seat belt

buckle is inserted into the proper
buckle catch. It is possible to cross
the buckle in the rear seat.

ï Do not wear your seat belt over

hard or breakable objects in your
pockets or on your clothing. If an
accident occurs, objects such as
glasses, pens, etc. under the seat
belt can cause injury.

ï Never wear the shoulder belt under

your arm nearest door. Make sure
that the shoulder portion of seat belt
is positioned midway over the
shoulderñnever across the neck.

ï Be sure the lap belt is fitted snugly

around the hips, not the waist.

ï Never use a belt for more than one

person at a time.

ï Never allow a child stand up or

kneel on the seat.

ï Never allow a child to be held in

somebody's arms while the vehicle
is moving.

ï Never let the belt system become

damaged by a door or seat.

1ñ11

THREE POINT SEAT BELT

WARNING

ï Never wear the belts with straps

twisted or with a buckle release
button facing downward or inward.

ï Do not put anything into the opening

where the safety belt passes
through the trim panel. This may
jam the retractor or damage the
belt.

ï The seat belt will provide

maximum protection for its wearer
if the recliner seat back is placed
in fully upright position. When the
seat back is reclined, there is
greater risk that the passenger will
slide under the belt, especially in
a forward impact accident, and
may be injured by the belt or by
striking the instrument panel or
seat backs.

ï No modifications or additions

should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating to
remove slack, or prevent the seat
belt assembly from being adjusted
to remove slack.

WARNING

ï Seat belts should be adjusted as

firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection
for which they have been designed.
A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.

ï Care should be taken to avoid

contamination of the webbing with
polishes, oils and chemicals, and
particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using
mild soap and water. The belt
should be replaced if webbing
becomes frayed, contaminated or
damaged.

ï Periodically inspect seat belt

assemblies for excessive wear and
damage. It is essential to replace
the entire seat belt assembly after
it has been worn in a severe
impact, even if damage to the
assembly is not obvious.

Each Daewoo vehicle is equipped with three
point seat belts with automatic retractors,
allowing freedom of body movement when
driving at even, constant speeds, although
the spring-tensioned belts are always a
snug fit.
This type of belt requires no length
adjustment. Once worn, the belt adjusts
itself to the movement of wearer, but in the
event of a sudden or strong shock, the belt
automatically locks to restrain the wearer's
body.

1ñ12

SEAT BELT HEIGHT ADJUSTOR

*

USING THE BELT

On seat belts with a height-adjustable upper
anchorage point: pull belt out, depress the
area indicated by an arrow and adjust the
height.
This is particularly important if a smaller
person has previously selected a lower
position.
Too high a position can impair comfort.

press

CAUTION

Always be sure that the belt is
positioned across the shoulder, as
close to your neck as possible and not
on your upper arm or neck. Failure to
do so could reduce the amount of
protection in an accident and increase
the chance of injury.

Pull the belt evenly out of the retractor and
guide it across the body, making certain that
it is not twisted.

increase the risk of injury.
Be sure that the lap belt is fitted
snugly around the hips, not on the
waist.

SEAT BELT WARNING CHIME

The seat belt warning chime will sound for
about 4 to 8 seconds when the ignition
switch is placed in the "II" position unless
the driver's seat belt is securely fastened.

Always keep the seat belts clean and dry.
Clean only with a mild soap solution or
lukewarm water.
Do not bleach or dye belts since this may
severely weaken them. Make sure that the
belt is not damaged or trapped by sharp
edged objects.
Periodically inspect all parts of the belts and
have damaged parts replaced. A belt which
has been overstretched in an accident must
be replaced by a new one.
Do not perform any alterations to your
vehicle's belt system.

WARNING

All seat belt assemblies, including
retractors and attaching harness,
should be inspected after any
collision. We recommend that all seat
belt assemblies in use during a
collision be replaced unless the
collision was minor and the seat belts
show no damage and continue to
operate properly. Seat belt
assemblies not in use during a
collision should also be inspected and
replaced if damage or improper
operation is noted.

1ñ14

CHILD RESTRAINT

Child restraint installation

Your vehicle has been designed to
accommodate a child restraint on the rear
seat. When using a child restraint, read the
Installation Instructions supplied with the
child restraint and follow the directions for
fitment carefully.
When installing the child restraint, use the
correct anchor bolt. (5/16" bolt)
The anchor bolt must be engaged at least
5 full threads in the anchorage.
If you have any queries regarding the
installation of a child restraint, consult a
Daewoo Dealer.

Anchorage locations

Child restraint anchor fittings have been
installed to coincide with the three rear
seating positions as follows.

Sedan Models:
Anchorages are located at either side and
center of the shelf behind the rear seat.
They are covered with the shelf carpet and
the anchor fitting nuts are welded beneath
the shelf.

Hatchback Models:
Anchorages are located at either side and
center of the lower rear tail member.

WARNING

ï Infants and small children should

never be transported unless they
are properly restrained. Restraint
systems for infants and small
children should be used. Make sure
that the system you purchase
meets applicable safety standards.
Read and follow all the directions
provided by the manufacturer.

ï A child restraint system should be

placed in the vehicle's rear seat.

ï When the child restraint system is

not in use, remove it or fasten it with
a safety belt so that it will not be
thrown forward in the case of a
sudden stop or accident.
Under all circumstances the anchor
bolt must be engaged at least 5 full
threads in the anchorage.

ï Children could be endangered in a

crash if their child restraints are not
properly secured in the vehicle.

(Continued)

1ñ15

DRIVER'S AIR BAG

*

WARNING

ï Child restraint anchorages are

designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used
for adult seat belts, harnesses or for
attaching other items or equipment
to the vehicle.

ï If child restraint anchor bolt is

removed from the shelf, the hole
must be effectively sealed with
another suitable bolt to prevent
exhaust gases entering the vehicle
interior.

The air bag is stored in the center pad of
the steering wheel.

The air bag Supplementary Restraint
System (SRS) helps protect the driver's
head and chest against injuries in the event
of a collision.

30∞

30∞

The air bag system activates during severe
collisions which are either frontal or when
the impact angle is up to 30∞ from straight
ahead.

The air bag inflates within milliseconds
during a crash and forms a safety cushion
for the driver.

After the air bag completely inflates, it
immediately deflates so that it does not
interfere with the driver's visibility or ability
to steer and operate other controls.
The air bag inflates with considerable force
and speed. It is therefore important that the
driver's seat and seat back should be
correctly adjusted, for the air bag to be fully
effective. The driver's seat should be
adjusted so that the steering wheel can be
reached with the arms slightly angled.

When the air bag inflates, an operating
noise may be heard and a small amount of
smoke-like gas will be released. The gas is
harmless and does not indicate that there
is a fire.

1ñ16

WARNING

WARNING

ï The air bag system will not be

triggered in the event of rear
impact, side impacts, rollovers or
minor frontal collisions. The seat
belts must therefore always be
worn. The air bag system serves to
supplement the seat belt.

ï Never affix anything to or over the

center of the steering wheel, as it
could cause injury when the air bag
is triggered.

ï Do not perform any alterations on

the components of the air bag
system. The system can be
triggered abruptly if it is treated
improperly.

ï The steering wheel and instrument

panel must only be removed by
Daewoo Dealer or Daewoo
Authorized Service Operation.

ï The air bag can be triggered only

once. It must then be replaced by
only a Daewoo Dealer or Daewoo
Authorized Service Operation.

ï Repairs to the steering wheel,

steering column and air bag system
must be carried out by only a
Daewoo Dealer or Daewoo
Authorized Service Operation.
Injuries may result if the air bag is
triggered inadvertently.

ï Do not stick anything on the

steering wheel and instrument
panel or cover them with other
materials. Clean them only with a
dry or a damp cloth. Do not use any
aggressive cleaning agents.

ï The air bag system must only be

disposed of by a Daewoo Dealer or
Daewoo Authorized Service
Operation.

ï The air bag system is designed only

as a supplement to the seat belt.
Seat belt must always be worn and
a sufficient distance kept between
the driver and the driving wheel.

STARTING AND OPERATING

2ñ1

FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS

Commercially available high-quality fuels are
suitable. Fuel quality has a decisive
influence on the power output, driveability
and life of the engine. The additives
contained in the fuel play an important role
in this connection. You should therefore
use only highñquality fuels containing
additives.

Fuel with too low an octane number can
cause pre-ignition of detonation. Daewoo
cannot be held liable for resultant damage.

Fuel with a higher octane number may be
used.

The larger nozzle used with leaded fuel at
service stations cannot be inserted into the
fuel tank filler neck on vehicles which must
be operated on unleaded fuel only, to avoid
accidental use of leaded fuel.

Do not Use Methanol

Fuels containing methanol (wood alcohol)
should not be used in your Daewoo. This
type of fuel can reduce vehicle
performance and damage components of
the fuel system.

CAUTION

The warranty Policy will not cover
damage of the fuel system and any
performance problems that are caused
by the use of methanol or fuel
containing methanol.

Operation in Foreign Countries

If you are going to drive your Daewoo in
another country, be sure to:
ï Observe all regulations regarding

registration and insurance.
ï Check that a suitable fuel is available.

2ñ2

If it becomes necessary to rock the car to
free it from sand, mud, snow or a hole,
move the selector lever from "D" to "R" in
a repeat pattern while simultaneously
applying light pressure to the accelerator
pedal. Do not race the engine and avoid
sudden acceleration.

This applies only to the exceptional
circumstances mentioned above.

Engine braking

In order to utilize the engine braking effect
when driving downhill, select drive range
"3", "2" or, if necessary, "1" in good time.

The braking action is most effective in drive
range "1". If drive range "1" is selected at
too high a speed, the transmission remains
in second gear until the shift point for first
gear is reached, e.g. as a result of
deceleration.

Before leaving the vehicle, apply parking
brake, then place selector lever in position

BRAKE

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM*

Rocking the car

If it becomes necessary to rock the car to
free it from sand, mud, snow or a hole,
move the selector lever from "D" to "R" in
a repeat pattern while simultaneously
applying light pressure to the accelerator
pedal. Do not race the engine and avoid
sudden acceleration.

This applies only to the exceptional
circumstances mentioned above.

Maneuvering the car

To maneuver the car back and forth during
attempts to park or in garage entrances
utilize the above-mentioned creeping.
Regulate your speed by lightly releasing the
brake pedal.

Never press the accelerator and brake
pedals simultaneously.

The regular braking system is designed for
braking performance under a wide range
of driving conditions even when the vehicle
is loaded to its full rated vehicle load
capacity.

If the brake pedal can be pressed further
than normal, it may be due to a lack of
adjustment of the rear drum brakes. To find
out if this is the case, drive backward and
forward a few times, applying the brakes
firmly when going in each direction.

Visit your Daewoo dealer if the pedal height
does not return to normal, or there is a rapid
increase in pedal travel. This could be a
sign of brake trouble.

CAUTION

Do not drive with your foot resting on
the brake pedal as this can cause
premature lining wear and possible
damage to the brakes.

(ABS)

The anti-lock brake system controls the
wheels so that they will not lock when
braking abruptly or when braking on a
slippery road. The system detects the
wheel rotation rate and electronically
controls the pressure applied to the brakes.
Slight vibration accompanied by noise
usually occurs while ABS is operating.
Such vibration and noise simply indicates
that the ABS is functioning normally.
If an abnormality occurs in the system, the
anti-lock brake system is cancelled. The
ordinary brakes will operate normally and
the ABS warning light will come on. Consult
your Daewoo Dealer as soon as possible
if this condition occures.

PARKING BRAKE

PARKING

Braking with ABS

In an emergency, apply full force on the
brake and clutch pedal simultaneously.
The anti-lock brake system will be activated

We recommend that you familiarise yourself
with this braking technique. However, avoid
taking unnecessary risks.

WARNING

The anti-lock brake system, although
a sophisticated device, cannot prevent
accidents resulting from careless or
dangerous driving techniques.
Ultimately the responsibility for your
safety and that of others rests in the
hands of the driver. Therefore only
through attentive and careful driving
methods can the anti-lock brake
system be fully appreciated.

SUGGESTIONS FOR MORE

ENGINE EXHAUST GAS CAUTION

ECONOMICAL OPERATION

Your car's fuel economy is mainly
dependent on your style of driving.
How you drive, where you drive, and
when you drive has an effect on how
many kilometers you can get from a liter of
fuel.
To obtain maximum fuel economy from your
car:
ï Start gradually and accelerate gently.
ï Avoid excessive and unnecessary

idling.
ï Keep your engine properly tuned.
ï Do not race the engine.
ï Use the air conditioning (if equipped)

only when necessary.
ï Slow down when driving on rough

roads.
ï Always keep your tires inflated to the

recommended pressure for longer tire

life and optimum fuel economy.
ï Keep your distance from other vehicles

to avoid sudden stops. This will reduce

wear on brake linings and improve

economy as extra fuel is required to

accelerate back up to driving speed.

ï Do not carry unnecessary weight in the

vehicle.

ï Do not rest your foot on the brake pedal

while driving. This can cause needless
wear, possible damage to the brakes
and poor fuel economy.

ï Always ensure your vehicle is

maintained to the manufacturer's
specification.

(CARBON MONOXIDE)

ï Avoid inhaling engine exhaust gases.

Engine exhaust gases contains carbon
monoxide, which has no color or odor.
Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas.
It can cause unconsciousness and can
be lethal if inhaled.

ï If at any time you suspect that exhaust

gases are entering the vehicle, have
the vehicle inspected and repaired
immediately by a Daewoo Dealer or
Daewoo Authorized Service Operation.
If it is necessary to drive under such
conditions, do so only with all windows
fully open.

ï To protect against exhaust gases

entering the vehicle, the exhaust
system and body should be inspected:
ñ each time the vehicle is raised for

an oil change.

ñ whenever a change is noticed in

the sound of the exhaust system.

ñ whenever the exhaust system,

underbody or rear of the vehicle is
damaged or becomes corroded.

2ñ15

ï Do not operate the engine in confined

areas such as garages or other closed

areas any more than needed to move

the vehicle in or out of the area.
ï When the vehicle is stopped in an

unconfined area for more than a short

time with the engine running, turn off

the recirculation switch to draw the

outside air into the vehicle and set the

fan switch to high speed.
ï Never sit (or leave the children) in a

parked or stopped vehicle for any

extended period of time with the engine

running.
ï Avoid driving with trunk lid or tailgate

open, as exhaust gases could enter

the vehicle. If you must drive with the

trunk lid or tailgate open, close all

windows, turn off the recirculation

switch and open all dashboard

ventilation vents to draw the outside air

into the vehicle, and set the fan switch

to high speed.

VENTILATION AND HEATING

CENTER VENTILATION VENTS

SIDE VENTILATION VENTS

Air mixture system: by mixing cold and
hot air the temperature can be regulated
without delay and thereby held practically
constant at all speeds.

The rate of air flow is determined by the
fan. The fan should therefore be switched
on if required even when driving.

Heating the rear foot area: cold or heated
air is routed to the rear foot area via ducts
underneath the carpet.(*)

Air can be directed into the vehicle via
both center vents. The vents are opened
by means of the regulating wheel. With the
wheel in the resting position, they are
closed.
The air flow can be directed as desired by
tilting and swivelling the fins.

OPERATING TIPS FOR

COOLING SYSTEM

ï If the car has been parked in direct

sunlight, open the windows before
operating.

ï To clean misted windows on rainy

days, decrease the temperature inside
the car by operating the air condi­tioning. This is most effective during
rainy weather and high humidity.

ï When driving in heavy traffic areas,

insufficient cooling may occur because
of stopping and slowing down of the
car.

ï When the air conditioning system is not

being used for a month or more, you
must run the engine at idle and turn the
system on for a few minutes once
each week, even during winter months.
This will keep the compressor and
seals properly lubricated and will
prolong the service life of the system.

ï Air conditioning compressor does not

operate when the fan control switch is
at off position or when the outside
temperature is below approx. 0∞C.

USING THE RDS FUNCTIONS

The RDS(Radio Data System) is a digital information system
developed by the EBU(European Broadcast Union). Pick-a-backed
on normal FM broadcasts, RDS offers a variety of information
services and automatic retuning functions for RDS compatible car
stereos.

RDS digital data includes various data:
PI ñ Program identification

Recognizes the country code and the program of the channel.

PS ñ Program service name

The name of the channel is shown in the display.

AF ñ List of alternative frequencies

A list of alternative frequencies with the same program contents
to tune automatically to the stronger station which broadcasts the
same program, using PI and AF.

TP ñ Traffic program

Recognizes channels with traffic information.

TA ñ Traffic announcement

Detects traffic information broadcast via the channel.

PTY 31 ñ Alarm code

Detects alarm announcement via the channel (catastrophe alarm).

REG ñ Regional change

Change to regional stations.

EON ñ Enhanced other networks

Makes the traffic announcement for stations without traffic
decoder possible.

6ñ13

RDS functions of this unit

This unit has the following functions for making use of RDS data.
ï Station name display using PS data.
ï AF(Altermative Frequencies) reception which automatically

tunes to the stronger station which broadcasts the same
program, using PI and AF data.

ï Automatic reception of traffic information broadcasts using TP/

TA and EON data.

ï PTY function which searches the stations of the same PTY.

Network/station name display

When you switch on the radio and select FM bands, the unit enters
the RDS mode automatically.
When you tune into an RDS station with manual or seek tuning,
the frequency display changes to the network/station name
display by means of the PS code RDS data.

NOTE

ï The RDS function of this unit uses RDS data transmitted

along with FM broadcasts. It does not work in the MW
and LW bands.

ï The RDS function may not work properly in the areas

where test transmissions are being conducted.

IMPORTANT

As a result of the PS function the station display changes
over to frequency display during the manual or automatic
search for a station.

AF-function(network following)

The unit retunes to the stronger alternative transmitter in the list
of alternative frequencies(AF). The display indicates "AF" as
confirmation in the display (18). Thus a motorist can keep listening
to the same program.
Example: If there are the following network broadcasting stations,
the reception frequency automatically changes from 98.5 MHz to

107.5 MHz to 96.0 MHz to 102.5 MHz, but a motorist can keep
listening to the same program while driving from point A to point
B.

AF-reception

The AF-function is only possible with FM. If the AF-function is
turned on the radio has tuned into an RDS transmitter and it will
automatically find the best transmitter in the particular chain of
transmitters as soon as reception starts to get worse, as long as
you are still driving within the areas of the particular areas. The
display shows the indicator "AF" in the display (18).

6ñ14

ï Sometimes it may seem that the radio has gone off for a short

while. There is no fault the radio is merely checking the qual­ity of other signals on the AF-list. If muting disturbs turn off
the AF-function.

ï When the radio switches over to an alternative frequency it

will go quiet for a moment, because it first has to check out
the accuracy of the PI data for the new frequency.

ï If you leave a reception area and there is no alternative AF-

frequency, the indicator "AF" flashes in the display .

TA-traffic announcement

When depressing the TP mode on/off button (11), the TA-function
is activated. The indicator "TP" then appears in the display. Pushing
the tuning up or down buttons is set in the traffic information
mode and searches for a station which broadcasts traffic
information. As soon as this station is reached, " TP " appears
with "TP" in the display. If reception is poor, you will hear a
warning tone telling you to start a new search.
ñ Don't activate the TP-function in an area or a country where

the RDS traffic information service is not available, as seek
tuning and preset scan will not pick up any stations.
Then after 30 seconds an alarm sounds, warning the driver
to turn off the TP function.

ñ RDS traffic information coverage is inherently narrower than

normal FM stereo signals or ARI traffic information Germany,
Austria and Switzerland. Then after 30 seconds, an alarm
sounds, warning the drive to tune another TP-station.

PI-seek

PI-automatic seek starts automatically, if you want to recall a preset
button, when its reception is weak. If the radio doesn't find a
station with the same PI-code you hear the station, which you
heard before.

PTY 31 alarm code

During production, your radio has been fitted with an RDS function

- a PTY 31 alarm system.
This means that you not have to activate this function separately.
If a radio station sends on alarm signal your radio automatically
tunes in to this station the duration of the alarm message, whether
you are listening to the radio or the cassette. The volume for the
alarm message is present in the factory.

What is EON?

EON(Enhanced Other Network) is a new RDS service provided
by certain station networks. Even if you are tuned in to an RDS
station which does not give traffic news, e.g. a classical music
programme, you can still get the traffic news by pressing key TA
9, which tunes your radio in to the traffic news. If another RDS
transmitter now starts to broadcast traffic news, your radio
automatically switches to this station for the traffic news. When
the traffic news is finished, it switches back to the station you
were on before.
If seek starts automatically by turning on the TA-function, the
chosen station doesn't have EON-signals.

6ñ15

NOTE

Thanks to this new RDS function, the alternative frequency
lists of the selected chain of stations is automatically updated
and this ensured that there is always an instant automatic
search of the best RDS stations in all programs of the
particular chain of stations.

ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM*

The identification card, stamped with the security code number,
is provided with the vehicle. Keep it in a safe place, not in the
vehicle.

Programming the code:

1. Connect the audio system to the battery and turn the ignition

POWER ANTENNA

*

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

The antenna will automatically extend when
the radio mode is switched on, and
retract when the radio mode is switched
off, or cassette mode is switched on.

CAUTION

Before switching the radio on or off
make sure that there is no one near
the antenna while it is retracted or
extened.

OPERATING TIPS FOR

AUDIO SYSTEM

When the ignition switch is placed in the I
position, the audio system can be switched
on by pushing the power button.
If the ignition switch is turned to B position
while the audio system is operating and the
key is not removed from the ignition switch,
the audio system will continue to function.
When the key is removed, the audio
system is switched off automatically.

1. We recommend that tapes below C­90(the playing time: 90 minutes) be
used. C-120 tape is extremely thin and
its use should be avoided if at all pos­sible.

2. If a loop of tape has formed, it must be
taken up by turning one of the spools
with a suitable object such as ballpen
or pencil.

3. Store cassettes where they will not be
exposed to high temperature, direct
sunlight, magnetic fields, tape abrasion
or dirt.

4. Never leave cassette inserted in the
operating position with the tape player
inoperative.

5. Clean the head of the tape player
carefully with a cotton applicator
soaked in alcohol. If the tape player
is used for more than one hour every
day, the head should be cleaned once
or twice a month.
If it is used very infrequently, you only
need to clean the head every two or
three months.

6. Don't oil revolving parts of the tape
player.

7. Keep tapes in their plastic cases when
not in use.

WITH JUMP LEADS

A car with a discharged battery may be
started by transferring electrical power
from a battery in another car.
This may be dangerous and any deviation
from the following instructions could lead
to personal injury or property damage
resulting from battery explosion, battery
acid or electrical (short circuit) burns as
well as to damage to the electrical systems
in both vehicles.
ï Never expose the battery to naked

flames or sparks.

ï Do not allow battery fluid to come into

contact with eyes, skin, fabrics or
painted surfaces. The fluid contains
sulfuric acid which can cause injuries
and damage in the event of direct
contact.

ï To lessen the risk of injury wear eye

protection when working near any
battery.

ï Make sure that the battery providing the

jump start has the same voltage as the
battery in your car (12V).

ï Do not disconnect the discharged

battery from the vehicle.

ï Switch off all unnecessary electrical

7ñ4

loads.

ï Do not lean over the battery during

jump starting.

ï Do not allow the terminals of one lead

to touch those of the other lead.

ï Apply the parking brake. Place gear

shift lever in neutral (Automatic
transmission: set selector lever to "P").

Connect leads in the order shown in
the picture:

1. Connect one end of the first jump lead
to the positive terminal of the battery
providing the jump start (identified by
"+" sign on battery case or terminal).

2 Connect the other end of this lead to

the positive terminal of the discharged
battery ("+" sign).

3. Connect the first end of the other jump
lead to the negative terminal of the
battery providing the jump start
(identified by "ñ").

4. Connect the other end of the second

jump lead to ground on the other vehicle
e.g. engine block or screw connection
in engine suspension.
Do not connect lead to negative terminal
of discharged battery!
The connection point should be as far
away from the discharged battery as
possible.
Route the leads so that they cannot
catch on rotating parts in the engine
compartment.

5. The engine of the vehicle providing the
jump start can be allowed to run during
starting.
Attempts to start the engine of the
vehicle with the discharged battery
should be made at intervals of one
minute and should not last longer than
15 seconds. After starting, allow both
engines to idle for approx. 3 minutes
with the leads still connected.

6. Turn off the engine, then carefully
disconnect the jump cables in the
reverse order of connection.

CAUTION

If you leave the audio system on, it
could be badly damaged.
Vehicles with catalytic converter or
automatic transmission must not be
started by pushing or towing. This may
cause catalytic converter or
transmission damage.

7ñ5

TOWING THE VEHICLE

If towing is necessary, contact a Daewoo
outlet or professional tow truck service.
Proper lifting and towing precedures are
necessary to prevent damage to the
vehicle.
When towing the vehicle by wheel lift:
ï Switch on hazard warning flasher of

both vehicles.

ï Set the ignition switch in the "I (OFF)"

position.

ï Place the gear shift lever in neutral

(manual transmission) or the selector

lever in N (automatic transmission).
ï Release the hand brake.
ï Vehicles should be towed with the

driving (front) wheels off the road.

CAUTION

Never tow the vehicle from the rear with
front wheels on the road as this may
cause the serious damage to the
transmission.
If excessive damage or other
conditions prevent towing the vehicle
with driving (front) wheels off the road,
always use a towing dolly under the
driving (front) wheels.

7ñ6

Wheel dolly

CAUTION

Do not tow with sling-type equipment.
Use wheel lift or flat bed equipment.

Emergency towing

For emergency towing, e.g., when a
towing service is not available, your vehicle
is equipped with the towing hooks under
the front and rear of the vehicle for use
with a tow rope.
When towing the vehicle with the tow
rope:
ï Secure the rope to the towing hook

under the front of the vehicle as tight
as possible.

ï Switch on the hazard warning flasher

of both vehicles.

ï Place the gearshift lever in neutral and

release the hand brake.

ï Set the ignition in the ON (II) position to

release the steering column lock and to
permit the operation of brake lamps,
horn and windscreen wipers.

ï Only the driver should be in the towed

vehicle to steer it and operate the
brakes.

ï To prevent the entry of exhaust fumes

from the towing vehicles, close the
windows and turn on the recirculation
switch.

ROCKING THE VEHICLE

CARAVAN OR TRAILER

ï Drive off slowly and avoid jerky

movements.

NOTE

ï More brake pedal pressure is

necessary when braking since the
brake servo unit is operative only
when the engine is running.

ï On vehicles with power steering,

greater steering force is necessary
since this unit is operative only
when the engine is running.

CAUTION

ï The towing hook should be used

only in an emergency situation.

ï When towing the vehicle with a

rope, the vehicle should be towed
only facing forward.

ï Vehicles with automatic

transmission should not be towed
with a rope. They should be towed
with the front wheels off the ground
or carried by a flat bed truck.

ï Never attempt to tow the vehicle

with a rope if the wheels,
transmission, axles, steering or
brakes are damaged.

If it is necessary to rock the vehicle to free
it from snow, sand or mud, move the
selector lever on an automatic transmission
models from "D" to "R" in a repeat pattern
while depressing the accelerator gently.
(On manual transmission models, move the
gearshift lever from first to reverse gear.)
Do not race the engine. If you are still stuck
after a minute or two of rocking, have the
vehicle pulled out to avoid overheating and
possible damage to the transmission.

CAUTION

Do not spin the front wheels
excessively, as this may cause
personal injury and/or premature failure
of the driveline components.

TOWING

Your vehicle is designed primarily as a
passenger vehicle therefore handling,
braking, durability and economy will be
affected by towing a caravan or trailer.
Your safety and satisfaction depend upon
proper use of correct equipment. Also, you
should avoid overloading and other
abusive use.
The maximum loaded trailer weight you can
pull with your vehicle depends on your
intended use and what special equipment
has been installed on it. Before attempting
any towing, ensure that the correct
equipment is fitted to your vehicle.
Your Daewoo Dealer will help supply and
install towing equipment to suit your
requirement.

7ñ7

Caravan/Trailer Loading

To load your caravan/trailer properly, you
must know how to measure gross caravan/
trailer weight and caravan/trailer tongue
weight. Gross caravan/trailer weight is the
weight of the caravan/trailer plus all cargo
in it. You can measure gross caravan/trailer
weight by putting the fully loaded caravan/
trailer on a vehicle scale.
Caravan/trailer tongue weight is the
downward force exerted on the hitch by
the caravan/trailer coupler, with the
caravan/trailer fully loaded and the coupler
at its normal towing height. This weight can
be measured using a bathroom scale.
The weight of your loaded caravan/trailer
(gross caravan/trailer weight) should never
exceed the values in the chart below.
The maximum permissible caravan/trailer
tongue weight is 75 kg.
The permissible caravan/trailer loads are
valid for gradients up to max. 12%.

When the trailer/caravan has been coupled,
the permissible rear axle load for the fully
loaded towing vehicle (including
occupants) must not be exceeded.

NOTE

Total gross vehicle weight with caravan/
trailer must not exceed the Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of the
vehicle. The total gross vehicle weight
is the weight of the vehicle, driver,
passengers, luggage or cargo, plus the
weight of the hitch and the caravan/
trailer tongue weight.

CAUTION

To help avoid personal injury due to
swaying caused by such things as
crosswinds, large trucks passing or
road roughness, or due to separation
of the caravan/trailer, keep the caravan/
trailer tongue load at 10 percent of the
loaded caravan/trailer weight. Tongue
load can be adjusted by proper
distribution of the load in the caravan/
trailer. This can be checked by
weighing separately the loaded
caravan/trailer and then the tongue
load.

7ñ8

Caravan/trailer Brakes

If the caravan/trailer brakes are used, you
should follow all instructions provided by
the manufacturer. Never modify the brake
system of your vehicle.

Caravan/trailer Lights

Make sure your caravan/trailer is equipped
with lights which meet country and local
requirements. Always check for the
proper operation of all caravan/trailer
lights before you start to tow.

Tires

When towing caravan/trailers, be sure your
tires are properly inflated to the inflation
pressure shown on the Tire Placard on the
driver's door.

The allowable load for each tire is shown
on the Tire Placard.

Maintenance

More frequent service is required when
using your vehicle to pull a caravan/trailer.

Regularly check that all caravan/trailer hitch
bolts and nuts are tight.

Safety Chains

Always attach safety chains between your
vehicle and the trailer. Cross the safety
chains under the tongue of the trailer so
that the tongue will not drop to the road if
it becomes separated from the hitch.
Follow the manufacturer's recommendation
for attaching safety chains. Always leave
just enough slack to permit full turning.
Never allow safety chains to drag on the
road.

Towing tips

The cooling fan is driven electrically. Its
cooling capacity is thus not dependent on
the engine speed. At high engine speeds
a lot of heat is produced and at low engine
speeds correspondingly less heat is
produced. For this reason, when driving
uphill do not shift down into a lower gear
when the vehicle can still climb the hill in
the higher gear.
When driving uphill do not drive faster than
30 km/h in first gear or 50 km/h in second
gear.
Make sure that you have enough room
when cornering and avoid sudden
maneuveres.

ï Before driving, make sure that the

lighting system of the trailer works
properly.

ï Observe the legal maximum speeds for

towing.

ï Avoid abrupt starts, acceleration or

stops.
ï Avoid sharp turns or lane changes.
ï Always drive your vehicle at a

moderate speed.
ï Always block the wheels on both

vehicle and trailer when parking. Apply

parking brake on trailer where fitted.

Parking on a steep slope is not

recommended.
ï Take note of trailer manufacturer's

instructions.

SERVICE PRECAUTIONS

When performing any inspection or
maintenance work on your vehicle, always
exercise care to reduce the risk of
personal injury or damage to the vehicle.
Here are some general precautions that
should be closely observed in carrying out
any service operation.

ï Do not work on the engine while it is

hot.
Always turn it off and allow it to cool.

ï Never get under the vehicle while it is

supported by a jack. If it is necessary
to work under the vehicle, use safety
stands.

ï Keep smoking materials, flames, and

sparks away from the battery and all
fuel and fuel-related parts.

ï Never connect or disconnect either the

batter or any transistorized component
while the ignition switch is ON(II).

ï When connecting the battery cables,

pay special attention to their polarities.

Never connect a positive cable to a

negative terminal or a negative cable to

a positive terminal.
ï Remember that the battery, ignition

cables, and vehicle wiring carry high

currents or voltage. Be careful not to

cause a short circuit.
ï When performing any checks in an

enclosed space with the engine

running, such as in a garage, be sure

there is proper ventilation.
ï Keep used oil, coolant and other fluids

out of reach of children and pets.

Empty and used oil/fluids containers

must not be disposed of in the

household repuse waste. Use your

local authorized waste disposal

facilities when disposing of these.

ï If it is necessary to check beneath the

hood with the engine running, place the
shift lever in NEUTRAL/PARK and apply
the parking brake firmly. Unexpected
and possibly sudden vehicle movement
may occur if these precautions are not
taken.

ï To avoid the possibility of personal

injury, you should always turn off the
ignition switch and remove the key
before working under the hood unless
the procedure specifically requires
otherwise. If it requires running the
engine while working under the hood,
do not permit any clothing, such as
neckties or handkerchiefs, near the
engine or cooling fan. They can
become entangled in moving parts and
result in personal injury and damage to
the vehicle. Also remove watches,
bracelets, and rings for safety.

8ñ4

A NOTE ON SAFETY

DRIVER'S CHECK LIST

To avoid the possibility of injury from the
cooling fan, carry out all engine checks
with the ignition switched off so that the
fan is not operate.
The fan is controlled by ECM (electronic
control module) and consequently may
start to operate unexpectedly.

When the ignition is on, it is also highly
dangerous to touch live parts as the
electronic ignition system has a greater
current ignition power than conventional
systems.

The following checks are recommended
before driving to maintain safe and
dependable vehicle operation.

Exterior

1. Check the tires for inflation pressure

and damage.

2. Check the wheel nuts for looseness.

3. Check the operation of the lights.

4. Check for any oil, water, fuel and brake

fluid leaks.

Within the vehicle

1. Check for steering wheel play and

looseness.

2. Check the parking brake lever travel.

3. Check the operation of the horn,

windshield wipers and turn signals.

4. Check the operation of instruments and

indicator warning lights.

5. Check level of fuel in the fuel tank

against fuel gauge.

6. Check the position of the rearview
mirrors.

7. Check the operation of the door locking
mechanism.

8. Check the clutch pedal free play, height
and function.

Within the engine compartment

1. Check the engine oil level.

2. Check the tension of the drive belt.

3. Check the engine coolant level in the
surge tank.

4. Check the battery condition.

5. Check the level of windshield washer
solution

6. Check the level of the brake fluid in the
reservoir.

7. Check the level of the power steering
fluid.

8ñ5

ENGINE OIL

Engine oil and oil filter change

Engine oil changes are to be carried out
depending on time intervals and mileage
intervals, since oil loses its lubrication
properties not only through engine operation
but also through aging.
Under exceptional conditions e.g.
frequent cold starts or predominantly
urban traffic and stop-and-go traffic, the
engine oil and engine oil filter should be
changed at shorter intervals rather than
the recommended maintenance schedule.

Engine oil filter elements should be replaced
at the same time as engine oil.

Service interval Capacity

Change every 10,000km or
6 months (But, every
5,000km or 3 months under
severe conditions)

Severe conditions

ï When most trips are less than 6km.
ï Operating when outside temperatures

remain below freezing and when most
trips are less than 16km.

3.75L

(including

oil filter)

ï When most trips include extended idling

and/or frequent low-speed operation
as in stop-and-go traffic.

ï When operating in dusty areas.

Checking procedure

Pull out the oil dipstick, wipe it, and reinsert
it.
Pull it out again and check that the oil level
is between max. and min. level marks. Also
check the oil on the dipstick rod for
contamination.

The oil should not go above the "max" mark
on the dipstick. This would lead, for
example, to increased oil consumption,
fouling of the spark plugs and excessive
formation of carbon residue.
When replenishing, use the same
specification of oil as used at the last oil
change.

MAX

CAUTION

Engine oil level should be checked
with the vehicle standing on level ground
(before the operation of the engine).
If the engine is running, stop the engine
and allow 5 minutes for the oil to settle
before checking the level.

WARNING

Prolonged and repeated contact with
used engine oil may cause serious
skin disorders including dermatitis
and cancer. Avoid excessive contact,
wash thoroughly after contact.
Keep used engine oil out of reach of
children. Empty and used oil
containers must not be disposed of
in the household refuse waste. Use
your local authorized waste disposal
facilities when disposing of these.

COOLANT LEVEL

The cooling system is filled with an
ethylene glycol base coolant.
In the correct concentration the coolant
provides excellent corrosion and freeze
protection for the entire cooling and heating
system and must therefore not be replaced
by plain water even in summer.
The coolant level should be between "MIN"
and "MAX" mark on the coolant surge tank
when the engine is cool. The level rises at
engine operating temperature and drops
again when the engine cools down.
If the level falls below the "MIN" mark, add
enough 50/50 water and ethylene glycol
anti-freeze mix, to provide freezing and
corrosion protection.

OVERHEATING

If the engine coolant temperature gauge
shows an overheating condition or you
have other reason to suspect the engine
may be overheating, stop and park the
vehicle.The air conditioning must be off.
Leave the engine idling for a few minutes
and check that the cooling fan is operating.
If the fan is not operating, turn the ignition
off and consult your Daewoo dealer
immediately.
If steam is coming from the engine
compartment, don't go near front of the
vehicle. Stop the engine. Then turn the
ignition switch on without starting the
engine. The cooling fans will start to cool
the engine.
Open the engine hood only after steam is
no longer escaping from the engine and
idle the engine until it cools.
If the fan is operating but the temperature
is not lowered, stop the engine and let it
cool.
Then, check the coolant level. If it's low,
look for leaks in the radiator hoses and
connections, heater hoses and
connections, radiator, water pump.

If you find a leak or other damage, or if
coolant is still leaking, do not run the engine
until these problems have been corrected.
Consult your Dealer immediately.

WARNING

Do not remove the coolant surge tank
cap when the engine and radiator are
hot. Scalding hot coolant and steam may
be blown out under pressure, which
could cause serious injury.
Do not allow antifreeze to make
contact with the skin or eyes. If this
should happen, rinse the affected
areas immediately with plenty of
water, and consult a doctor if any
irritation occurs.

CAUTION

Do not OVERFILL.
Use only soft(demineralized) water in
the coolant mixture.The engine in
your vehicle has aluminum engine
parts and must be protected by an
ethylene-glycol based coolant to
prevent corrosion and freezing.
DO NOT USE alcohol or methanol
antifreeze or mix them with the
specified coolant.
If frequent additions are required, see
your Dealer for a cooling system check.

8ñ7

MANUAL TRANSMISSION 4-SPEED AUTOMATIC

FLUID LEVEL

Check the fluid level a couple of minutes
after shutting off the engine.
Make sure the vehicle is on level ground.
Remove the transmission fluid filler plug
and feel the inside of the hole with your
finger.
The fluid level should be up to the bottom
of the plug hole.
If the fluid level is low, replenish the T/M
fluid until it reaches the bottom of the plug
hole.
Reinstall the filler plug and tighten it
securely.

WARNING

After driving the vehicle, the
transmission fluid temperature may be
high enough to burn you. Wait until the
fluid and filler plug is cool enough to
touch with your bare hands before
inspecting the transmission fluid.
Empty and used oil containers must
not be disposed of in the household
refuse waste.
Use your local authorized waste
disposal facilities.

TRANSMISSION FLUID LEVEL

To ensure proper functioning, efficiency
and durability of the automatic transmission,
it is of the utmost importance that the fluid
is always kept at the proper level.

The 4-speed automatic transmission (4T40ñ
E) does not have a dipstick to check the
fluid level. You may have the fluid level
checked by your Daewoo Dealer or
Daewoo Authorized Service Operation.

The only way for the fluid level to decrease
is if the automatic transmission develops a
leak. If a fluid leak occurs the vehicle
should be taken to your Daewoo Dealer or
Daewoo Authorized Service Operation to
be repaired as soon as possible.

Fluid should not be added to the automatic
transmission without properly setting the
fluid level. Overfilling the automatic
transmission will decrease the automatic
transmission performance and could
damage the unit.

Use only specified fluid as given in the
lubricant chart.

it is of the utmost importance that the fluid
is always kept at the proper level.
The level must therefore be checked at the
intervals specified in the manual. The
dipstick bears the markings "MIN"(top-up)
and "MAX"(full).
The level must be checked with the engine
running and the selector lever in position
"P". with the vehicle on a level. To check
the level, pull out the oil dipstick, whip it
clean, reinsert it as far as it will go, and
then remove it.

On a cold transmission, check is performed
using the side of the disptick marked "+20∞C,
while for a transmission at operating
temperature the side marked "+94∞C"
should be used.
Normal operating temperature is only
reached after motorway driving over a
distance of at least 15 to 20km or similar.
Add fluid through pipe only if the fluid
level has reached the "MIN" mark. Do not
go above the "MAX" mark. Extreme
cleanliness should be exercised during
checking and filling since dirty particles
entering the automatic transmission could
cause severe malfunctions.
Use only special fluid as given in the
lubricant chart.

Service interval Capacity

Change every 80,000km
or 4 yeasrs
(Fluid filter should be
replaced at the same time
with auto T/M fluid)

5.5~6L

This fluid level should be between MIN and
MAX marks on the side of the reservoir.
If the fluid level is low, replenish it with the
recommended clutch fluid.
Low fluid level can indicate a leak in the
clutch system.
Have this system checked at your nearest
Daewoo dealer.

8ñ9

BRAKE FLUID

POWER STEERING FLUID*

Brake fluid is hygroscopic, and thus
absorbs humidity. Excessive moisture in the
brake fluid may adversely affect the
safety of the hydraulic brake system.
The fluid change intervals specified in this
book must therefore be observed.
Brake fluid is poisonous and will also
damage the paint finish of your car. The
fluid level in the container must not be
higher than the "MAX" mark or lower than
the "MIN" mark.
For replenishing use only the specified
brake fluid.
After removing the filler cap, top up to
the "MAX" mark and tighten cap securely
afterwards.
Low fluid level can indicate a leak in the
brake system.
Have the system checked at your nearest
Daewoo dealer.

Service interval Capacity

Change every 20,000km
or 1 year.

0.5L

CAUTION

If the brake indicator light comes on
while driving, the fluid reservoir
should be filled to the level mark with
recommended brake fluid. Too much
brake fluid can damage your engine.

WARNING

Do not allow brake fluid to make
contact with the skin or eyes. If this
should happen, rinse the affected areas
immediately with plenty of water. If
irritation occurs, consult a doctor.
Brake fluid will damage paintwork. If
splashed or spilt on a painted surface
wash it off immediately with clean water
or wet spongy.
Empty and used oil containers must
not be disposed of in the household
refuse waste.
Use your local authorized waste
disposal facilities.

Check fluid level with engine turned off.
Use only special fluid as given in the
lubricant chart.

(WITH ABS)

The level in the reservoir should be
checked in accordance with the intervals
specified in this manual. A dipstick
attached to the cap bears the markings
"ADD" and "FULL".
With the engine at operating temperature,
the fluid level should be at the "FULL" mark:
with engine cold, the level must not fall
below the "ADD" mark.

AIR CLEANER

DRIVE BELT

WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID

If the vehicle is operated in very dusty or
sandy areas, replace more often than at
the usual recommended intervals.
If it is dirty, shake the element to remove
dust.
Clean the inside of the air cleaner housing
and cover with a damp cloth.
Clean the air cleaner element by blowing
compressed air through it in the opposite
direction to normal air flow.
Do not operate the vehicle with the air filter
removed.

CAUTION

Do not remove the air cleaner unless
temporary removal is necessary during
repair or maintenance of the vehicle.

Proper condition and correct tension are
essential for the correct function of the
alternator.
If the belt is worn, cracked or frayed,
replace it. To check the belt tension, apply
moderate thumb pressure (approximately
10kg) midway between pulleys, check the
deflection.

WARNING

Before checking belt tension, remove
the key from the ignition switch for
safety.

The fluid reservoir is located in the engine
compartment as illustrated.

You should use the specified windshield
washer solution.

CAUTION

Do not use radiator antifreeze as a
windshield washer solution. This will
result in damage to the paint work.
Driving without washer fluid can be
dangerous. Check the washer fluid
level often.
Don't mix washer fluid with water.
Small particles in it can clog the
system.
Fill the washer fluid tank only 3/4 full
when it is very cold. This allows for
expansion, which could damage the
tank if it is completely full.

BATTERY MAINTENANCEWINDSHIELD WIPERS

Properly functioning windshield wipers
are essential for safe driving and clear
vision.

Check condition of wiper blades from time
to time.
Hardened, brittle or smearing blades must
be replaced.
Since there is no way to successfully
remove traces of silicone from any glass,
be certain not to apply any polish
containing silicone to the windshield of
your vehicle since this will result in streaks
which impair vision.
Contamination of either the window or the
wiper blades with foreign matter can
reduce the effectiveness of the windshield
wipers. If the blades are not wiping
properly, clean both the window and the
blades with a good cleaner or mild
detergent, and rince thoroughly with clear
water.
Repeat if necessary.

To replace the wiper blade, press the

WHEELS AND TIRES

Maintaining the specified tire pressures is
essential for driver comfort, driving safety
and long tire life.
Check the tire pressure, including the spare
wheel, at least every 14 days and prior to
any long journey. The tires should be
checked in a cold condition using an
accurate tire pressure gauge.
Incorrect inflation pressures will increase
tire wear and affect safety, vehicle
handling and comfort.
Increased tire pressure resulting from
warm tires after extensive driving must not
be reduced.
Securely retighten valve caps after
checking pressure.

In the event of abnormal wear, consult
your franchised Daewoo dealer or
authorized service station and have
chassis and steering checked.
Should, after extended mileage, the front
tires show greater wear than the rear tires,
it is recommended to have both front
wheels exchanged with the rear wheels.
A deeper tread on the front tires, provides
greater safety.

NOTE

The danger of aquaplaning is greater
when the tires are worn.

WARNING

Dispose of worn tires in accordance
with local environmental regulations.
Change over from winter to summer
tires as soon as road conditions allow,
this will reduce fuel consumption and
noise in the car interior.
