2. For Vehicles Equipped With SRS Airbag and Seat Belt Pretensioner
Tip: This is equipped with an SRS (Supplemental Restraint System), such as the driver airbag assembly,
front passenger airbag assembly airbag ECU and seat belt pretensioner. Failure to carry out service operations in
the correct sequence could cause the supplemental restraint system to unexpectedly deploy during servicing,
possibly leading to a serious accident. Further, if a mistake is made in servicing the supplemental restraint
system, it is possible the SRS may fail to operate when required. Before servicing (including removal or instal­lation of parts, inspection or replacement), be sure to read the following items carefully, then follow the correct
procedure described in this manual.
(1) General Notice

a. Malfunction symptoms of the supplemental restraint system are difficult to confirm, so the diagnostic
trouble codes become the most important source of information when troubleshooting. When troubleshooting
the supplemental restraint system, always inspect the diagnostic trouble codes before disconnecting the battery.

b. Work must be started after 90 seconds from the time the ignition switch is turned to the "LOCK"
position and the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery. (The supplemental restraint system
is equipped with a back--up power source so that if work is started within 90 seconds of disconnecting the
negative (-) terminal cable from the battery, the SRS may deploy.) When the negative (-) terminal cable is
disconnected from the battery, memory of the clock and audio systems will be cancelled. So before starting
work, make a record of the contents memorized by the each memory system. Then when work is finished, reset
the clock and audio systems as before. To avoid erasing the memory of each memory system, never use a back­up power supply from another battery.

General Information - Repair Instruction

1-7

c. Even in cases of a minor collision where the SRS does not deploy, the driver airbag assembly, front
passenger airbag assembly and seat belt pretensioner should be inspected.

d.

e. Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When replacing parts, replace them with new parts.
f. Before repairs, remove the airbag ECU if shocks are likely to be applied to the sensor during repairs.
g. Never disassemble and repair the airbag ECU assembly, driver airbag assembly, front passenger airbag
assembly or seat belt pretensioner.
h. If the airbag ECU assembly, driver airbag assembly, front passenger airbag assembly or seat belt
pretensioner has been dropped, or if there are cracks, dents or other defects in the case, bracket or connector,
replace them with new ones.
i. Do not directly expose the airbag ECU assembly, driver airbag assembly, front passenger airbag assem­bly or seat belt pretensioner to hot air or flames.
j. Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 k ohm/ V minimum) for troubleshooting of the electrical
circuit.
Information labels are attached to the periphery of the SRS components. Follow the instructions on the
notices.

k.

After work on the supplemental restraint system is completed, check the SRS warning light

(2) Clock Spring (in combination switch)
The steering wheel must be fitted correctly to the steering col­umn with the clock spring at the neutral position, otherwise clock
spring disconnection and other troubles may result.

Mark

(3) Driver Airbag Assembly
a. When removing the driver airbag assembly or handling a new driver airbag assembly, it should be placed
with the steering wheel top surface facing up. Storing the steering wheel with its top surface facing downward
may lead to a serious accident if the airbag deploys for some reason. In addition do not store a driver airbag
assembly on top of another one.
b. Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib. (This may cause the airbag to deploy, which is very
dangerous.)
c. Grease should not be applied to the driver airbag assembly and the pad should not be cleaned with
detergents of any kind.

Correct

Wrong

1-8

d. Store the driver airbag assembly where the ambient temperature remains below 93°C , without
high humidity and away from electrical noise.
e. When using electric welding, first disconnect the airbag connector (yellow color and 2 pins) under the
steering column near the combination switch connector before starting work.
f. When disposing of a vehicle or the driver airbag assembly alone, the airbag should be deployed using an
SST before disposal. Perform the operation in a safe place away from electrical noise.
(4) Front Passenger Airbag Assembly
a. Always store a removed or new front passenger airbag assembly with the airbag rupture surface facing
up. Storing the airbag assembly with the airbag rupture surface facing down could cause a serious accident if the
airbag inflates.
b. Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib. (This may cause the airbag to deploy, which is very
dangerous.)
c. Grease should not be applied to the front passenger airbag assembly and the airbag door should not be
cleaned with detergents of any kind.
d. Store the airbag assembly where the ambient temperature remains below 93°C , without high humidity
and away from electrical noise.
e. When using electric welding, first disconnect the airbag connector (yellow color and 2 pins) installed on
the assembly before starting work.
f. When disposing of a vehicle or the airbag assembly alone, the airbag should be deployed using an SST
before disposal. Perform the operation in a safe place away from electrical noise.

(5) Seat Belt Pretensioner
a. Never measure the resistance of the seat belt pretensioner. (This may cause the seat belt pretensioner to
activate, which is very dangerous.)
b. Never disassemble the seat belt pretensioner.
c. Never install the seat belt pretensioner in another vehicle.
d. Store the seat belt pretensioner where the ambient temperature remains below 80°C and away from
electrical noise without high humidity.
e. When using electric welding, first disconnect the connector (yellow color and 2 pins) before starting
work.
f. When disposing of a vehicle or the seat belt pretensioner alone, the seat belt pretensioner should be
activated before disposal. Perform the operation in a safe place away from electrical noise.
g. The seat belt pretensioner is hot after activation, so let it cool down sufficiently before the disposal.
However never apply water to the seat belt pretensioner.
h. There should be no oil or water on the seat belt, no cleanser should be used to wash it.

Wrong

General Information - Repair Instruction

(6) Airbag ECU
a. Never reuse the airbag ECU involved in a collision when the SRS has deployed.
b. The connectors to the airbag sensor assembly should be connected or disconnected with the airbag ECU
mounted on the floor. If the connectors are connected or disconnected while the airbag ECU is not mounted to
the floor, it could cause undesired inflation of the supplemental restraint system.
c. Work must be started after 60 seconds from the time the ignition switch is turned to the "LOCK" position
and the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery, even if only loosing the set bolts of the
airbag ECU.
(7) Wire Harness and Connector
The SRS wire harness is integrated with the instrument panel wire harness assembly. All the connectors in
the system are a standard yellow color. If the SRS wire harness becomes disconnected or the connector becomes
broken due to an accident, etc., repair or replace it.

3. Electronic Control Device
(1) Removal of the battery terminal cable
a. Before performing electrical servicing, disconnect the nega­tive (-) cable from the battery in order to avoid short for burnout.
b. When disconnecting the terminal cable, turn of f the ignition

and light switches, loosen the cable nut and raise the cable straight
up without twisting or prying it.
c. When disconnecting the terminal cable from the battery, all
information stored in the clock, radio and DTC shall be deleted,
therefore, these information shall be checked before disconnection.
(2) Processing of Electronic Parts
a. Do not open the cover or case of the ECU unless absolutely
necessary. (If the IC terminals are touched, the IC may be destroyed
by static electricity.)
b. To pull apart electrical connectors, pull on the connector itself,
not the wires.
c. Be careful not to drop electrical components, such as ECU
or relays. If they are dropped on a hard floor, they should be replaced
and not reused.
d. When steam cleaning an engine, protect the electronic

5. Actions to ensure vehicle working condition and safe driving.
(1) To make sure of driving safety, execute the following inspections before driving.
a. Inspect fuel level, and add fuel when necessary.
b. Inspect illuminating lights, turning signal lights, braking signal lights to see if they work.
c.Check the position of rearview mirrors.
d.Check if breaking system functions well.
e.Check if glass of all the lights, windshield is clean.
(2) Regular inspection Perform the following regular inspections to ensure the vehicle work condition and
driving safety.
a. Check engine oil level. Park the vehicle on flat road; check the oil level with engine oil level indicator
at least 10 minutes after the engine is stopped. The oil level should be between the two marks. If it is
lower than "L" mark, add some oil; if it is higher than "F" mark, there is excessive oil, so release it.
Or investigate the cause of high oil level.
The volume between the lowest oil level ("L") and highest oil level ("F") is 1.4L.
b. Check engine coolant level. Check the level when the engine is cool. The coolant level should be between

LOW and FULL. If it is lower than "LOW", add coolant. If the coolant is much lower than Min (every

coolant fill is more than 1L) or the vehicle requires frequent fills,investigate if there is any problem with

the cooling system.

To keep the function of coolant, replace coolant every two years at the beginning of cold winter.

c. Check brake and clutch fluid level (sharing a reservoir). Brake fluid level should between the Max and
Min marks. And it is better to keep it close to the Max mark. Add fluid in time when there is not enough

fluid.

d. Check power steering fluid tank. The level should be between Max and Min marks. Refill when there

is not enough steering fluid to avoid pump stuck. It is strictly prohibited to run the vehicle without

steering fluid in any circumstances.

e. Check the charging status of battery and if the connection of battery wires is good.
f. Check tire status and pressure
g. Check the status of wipers.
(3) Observe warning lights and indicators on instrument panel.
a. There are various warning lights and indicators on the instrument panel of MK-1 sedans to indicate and
warn abnormal operations of engine, braking, and charging systems.
b. Pay attention to these lights when driving.When the warning lights or indicators are on,stop the vehicle,
check the vehicle and resolve the causes to make sure the vehicle works well or drives safely.

6. Correct ways to use new cars
Reliability and stability of components in new cars and recently repaired cars still need to be confirmed, and
relative parts are not broken-in, so they must be used carefully to ensure driving safety, to avoid abnormal damage,
and to extend the useful life of the car.
(1) Before driving inspection The following inspections must be performed on the new car to ensure car safety
and reliable operation:
a. Check if instrument panel, warning lights, and indicator, front and rear wiper and washer, and switches
work.
b. Check if the fastening of driveline, steering, suspension, wheels and other connection parts is good.

Usage and Maintenance of MK Series - Usage of MK Series

c. Check levels of braking fluid, engine coolant, engine oil, transmission oil, power steering fluid, and
washing fluid to see if there is any leaking.
d. Inspect if brake pedal, clutch pedal, accelerator pedal, transmission shifter, steering wheel, choke are
loose or stuck. The free travel of clutch pedal is 5~15mm, the free travel of brake pedal is 1~6mm and
the free play of steering wheel is less than 30mm(measurement point at margin of steering wheel). if it
is out of this normal range, the clutch needs to be tuned.
e. Inspect if the connection of battery, lamps and signal lights are normal, and if the wire routing and
position are correct and not loose.
f. Inspect if the tire pressure is correct.
(2) On-road inspection If the inspection result of the above items is good, start the engine and test the car on
road, and perform the following inspections.
a. Acceleration pedal, see if the operation is smooth and if it is loose.
b. Clutch, see if there is any stuck or abnormal noise, and slip when driving.
c. Transmission,check if shifting is smooth,or rough and wrong shifting.Inspect if the display of A/T
shift lever is normal.
d. Steering, check if steering is light and smooth, and if the steering wheel turns back after steering.
e. Brake pedal, apply brake pedal to check if the braking functions well when vehicle speed is at
40km/h and if the vehicle runs off track.
f. Park brake, when parking brake handler is pulled, there should be 6~9 clicking sounds. Pull park brake
when vehicle is running at the speed of 20km/h and transmission is at neutral gear to see if it brakes.
g. Vehicle speed meter, observe the vehicle speed meter while driving. When speed changes, check if the
indicator is moving steadily or shakes.
h. Heating and air-conditioning.Try every control button to see if both heating and cooling system work
well.
i. Abnormal noise, listen carefully to see if there is any abnormal noise from engine, drive line system or
any other parts of the vehicle at a steady speed and during accelerating, and decelerating.
(3) Inspection after test ride check if there is anything abnormal in the vehicle while driving and conduct the
following inspections after the vehicle is parked.
a. Check electrical fan When engine coolant temperature is beyond 92.5°C, the radiator fan should be
running; When A/C is on and the pressure of refrigerant is more than 1.5 cooling ton, air conditioning
cooling fan should be running.
b. Check headlamp, method: park the car 5m away from the inspection surface (inspection board, curtain,
or wall) to the front bumper, and check if the beam from headlamp is good. The upper level if headlamp
should be 540mm above the ground, and the distance between headlamps on the two sides is 900mm.
c. Inspect engine idle speed,idle speed of hot engine is 800r/min±50r/min,when A/C compressor works,
the idle speed should be 900r/min±50r/min. If idle speed is abnormal, adjust the idle speed adjust
ment screw to adjust it.
(4) Usage of new cars in breaking-in period Follow the instructions below in the first 1500~2500km breaking
mileage to avoid wear and abnormal damage in breaking-in period, and to improve vehicle performance, fuel
economy and to extend vehicle useful life.
a. Drive steadily during breaking-in; do not accelerate harshly to avoid running engine at high speed.
Engine should not exceed 4500r/min in any gears. Especially at the early stage of breaking-in, vehicle
