3. Avoid shock to the transmitter in the remote control key
and do not get it wet.
4. Only use the batteries with the same specifications to
replace the discharged battery. Do not reverse the
polarity.
Turbocharger System
If the oil supply for the bearing assembly of the fast rotating turbo charger stops, the stop will cause the turbocharger to seize. Therefore, the following cares are necessary to prevent the seizure.
1. After starting the engine, let it run for approx. 2 minutes
at idle speed (Avoid acceleration or driving off the
vehicle).
2. After changing the engine oil and oil filter, start the engine and let it run for approx. 2 minutes at idle speed
(Avoid acceleration or driving off the vehicle).
3. Do not stop the engine immediately after coming back
from high load driving (such as high speed driving or
driving on long slope). Let the engine run for approx. 2
minutes at idle speed to cool it down.
Air Bag
1. Never impact the air bag installations by hands or tools.
2. The air bag system serves as a supplement to the
seat belt. Make sure that you and your passengers
always fasten the seat belts properly even if the air
bags are installed in the vehicle.
3. Do not place any objects on the air bag inflation
location. You may be injured by those objects during
deployment.
4. The air bag system should be inspected 10 years after installation regardless of its appearance and other
conditions.
5. Repairs to the air bag system should be done only
by a Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service Center.
6. Do not diagnose the circuit with a circuit tester. Do not
attempt to modify any air bag components including the
steering wheel, air bag mounting area, and harness.
7. Never install a child restraint in the front seat. The children on the restraint could be seriously injured by the
air bag in a collision.
8. The deployed air bag unit should be removed from
the vehicle and replaced with a new one.
9. When the air bag is deployed, the relevant components will be very hot, so do not touch them until they
have cooled down.
10. A person who is smaller than 140 cm should sit in

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (II)
7
Tire
8
1. Be sure to use the same size and type of tires from the
9
same manufacturer on all wheels. Otherwise, damage
can be caused to the powertrain.
2. Keep the specified tire inflation pressure.
3. Make sure that the spare tire is ready for use at any
time. After installing the spare tire on a wheel, do not
drive for a long distance. Instead, visit a nearby dealer
or tire shop to replace the spare tire with a regular tire
for driving.
4. Always check the tire surface for damage and uneven
wear before driving and replace it if needed.
5. Using tires of different specifications may cause high
fuel consumption, long stopping distance, vehicle body
vibration, heavy steering operation, and poor ABS
operation.
Power Window
1. When you operate the rear windows from the driver’s
seat while a child sits in the rear, make sure that no
body part of the child is between the window and the
window frame.
2. When carrying children in the rear seat, press the rear
door window lock switch to make the rear door
switches inoperative.
3. Make sure that all passengers have their body parts
such as hands inside the vehicle.
4. When closing the windows, be aware of safety conditions before operation.
Glass Care
1. Be careful not to damage the rear heated wire and diversity antenna when cleaning the rear glass.
2. Do not install any sunshield on the windshield glass
and rear glass. It may adversely affect the rear heated
wire and receiving sensitivity of the antenna.
3. The rain and automatic light sensors are installed on
the upper middle front of the windshield (if equipped).
If these sensors are contaminated or covered with various coating sprays, the automatic rain sensing wipers
and lights may not work properly.
When transporting infants or small children, an appropriate child restraint system should always be used. The child
restraint system should be appropriate for your child’s
WARNING
• Infants and small children should always be restrained in an
infant or child restraint.
• NEVER INSTALL A REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT IN THE
FRONT SEAT WITH FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG.
• A child in a rear-facing child restraint installed in the front seat
can be seriously injured if the front passenger air bag inflates.
Secure a rear-facing child restraint in the rear seat.
• A front-facing child restraint should be secured in the rear
seat whenever possible. If installed in the front passenger
seat, adjust the seat as far back as it will go.
• When installing a child restraint system, follow the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
• When not in use, keep your child restraint system secured
with a seat belt or remove it from the vehicle.
• Do not hold a child while riding in a vehicle.
• Never let a child stand or kneel on any seat.
• Do not allow a child in the cargo areas while the vehicle is
moving.
weight and height and properly fit the car’s seat. Accident
statistics indicate that children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seat rather than in the front seat.
WARNING
• 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.
• Please note that the three point seat belt is designed for a
person who is taller than 140 cm.

Warming Up the Engine
1. Do not drive without warming up the engine. Driving immediately after starting the engine may decrease the
engine’s life expectancy. Warm up the engine before
moving your vehicle.
2. Do not warm up the engine excessively. Warm up the engine just until the coolant temperature gauge begins to move.
3. Excessive engine warming increases the fuel consumption and air pollution. An optimized warming up
time is approx. 2 minutes.
Do not accelerate the engine during the warming up period.
Driving the Automatic Transmission
Equipped Vehicle
1. Keep the brake pedal depressed and shift the gear selection lever into the “D” position. Make sure that the
“D” light is on the instrument cluster.
Drive off the vehicle by releasing the brake pedal slowly.
2. To avoid any possible damage to the automatic
transmission, do not abruptly drive off or accelerate
the vehicle after shifting the gear selection lever into

1. Do not turn off the engine while the vehicle is in motion.
The power steering function and the brake assist function will be deactivated.
2. Do not attempt to adjust the driver’s seat, rear view
mirrors, or steering wheel while driving. Adjustments
should be done before driving.
3. While driving, do not depress the brake pedal when the
accelerator pedal is depressed. Otherwise, the response from the accelerator pedal may be delayed.
This symptom is the safety function to protect the
vehicle’s drive system. This symptom can be eliminated if you depress and release the accelerator pedal
once when the brake pedal is not depressed.
4. Do not operate the steering wheel abruptly. This will
cause unstable driving situations and can end with an
unexpected accident.
Engine Brake
When driving down a long slope, use the engine brake
effect by downshifting the transmission in steps according to the driving conditions while using the service brake.
An excessive operation of the service brake could result
in a “Fade” or “Vapor Lock” effect.
Stopping and Parking the Vehicle
1. Never leave infants and children unattended in the vehicle with the doors locked. They can move the vehicle
unexpectedly. They can be suffocated in especially hot
weather.
2. When parking the vehicle on a hilly road, apply the parking brake and chock the blocks under the wheels.
Place the gear selector lever to the “P” position
(automatic transmission equipped vehicle).
3. If possible, do not stop and park the vehicle on the steep road.

Abrupt Start, Acceleration and Stop
1. Avoid abrupt starts, acceleration or stops. It may cause
high fuel consumption or an accident.
2. Gently accelerate and decelerate the engine.
Fade
Reduction or loss in braking force due to loss of friction between the brake pads and disc, caused by heat buildup through
repeated or prolonged brake application.
Keep it ready for use at any time. Be familiar with how to
use it. For more information, read the label on the surface of the fire extinguisher.
Vapor Lock
When the brake is excessively applied on a downhill, some
bubbles can be formed in the brake cylinder or in brake lines.
Because of these bubbles, hydraulic braking pressure cannot
be transferred to breaking units of the vehicle despite the fully
depressed brake pedal.

IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM*
The Immobilizer System provides an additional theft deterrent to the vehicle in which it is installed and prevents it from being

started by unauthorized persons. The transponder integrated in the key and the engine control unit have the same code.
When the ignition key with the integrated transponder is turned to the ON position, the ECU (Engine Control Unit) checks the
1
crypto code of the key and, if correct, allows your vehicle to start the engine.

Immobilizer Key
When the ignition key with the integrated
transponder is turned to the ON position,
the ECU (Engine Control Unit) checks the
crypto code of the key and, if correct, allows
your vehicle to start the engine.
Immobilizer Indicator
This indicator comes on when the ignition key is communicating with the engine control unit (during engine starting)
and goes out after starting the engine.
If this indicator blinks, it may indicate
that there is something wrong in the immobilizer system. Have the system
checked by a Ssangyong Dealer or
Ssangyong Authorized Service Center.
NOTE
The time needed for communication between the immobilizer
key and ECU can vary. When the time is very short, the immobilizer indicator does not come on.

WIND BUFFETING
When you drive this vehicle with the window or sunroof open
at a certain position, you may feel some pressure upon your

To prevent any body parts from being trapped by the sliding
sunroof, an Anti-Pinch Function automatically opens the
sunroof when an object is trapped.

CAUTION
• Even though the sunroof can be operated when the ignition key is
in the ON position (the engine is not running), operating the
sunroof repeatedly with the engine turned off will run down the
battery. Operate the sunroof while the engine is running.
• When a desired sunroof operation is completed, release the switch.
If you keep pressing the switch, it could cause a malfunction.
Especially in the winter, never operate the sunroof if moving areas are iced. Wait until the areas are deiced.
• When leaving the vehicle unattended, be sure to completely close
the sunroof. Otherwise, there is a great risk of vehicle theft. Or, the
interior of the vehicle will be wet when it rains or snows.
• When the sunroof is slid to its complete open position, the wind
buffet phenomenon can increase. If this happens, adjust by opening the sunroof or only open two thirds of the sunroof by using
only the first step of the opening system.
Battery Discharge or Power Failure while
Operating Sunroof
If the sunroof is stopped midway due to a discharged battery or
power failure, you need to re-calibrate the starting point of the
sunroof. In addition, the following cases need the re-calibration.
• The sunroof does not completely close or open by operating the switch once.
• The sunroof slides back to close. But the operation does
not stop even after a complete close and tilts up the sunroof.
• The opening gap remarkably decreases for the sliding open
or tilt up.
• Operation of the sunroof switch does not do anything or
work properly.
Re-calibrating the Sunroof Starting Point
• Turn the sunroof switch to the “CLOSE” direction to completely close the sunroof (sliding close).
• When the sunroof stops while the rear of the sunroof is
a little open, turn the sunroof switch to the “CLOSE” direction to tilt it completely.
NOTE
When the sunroof is completely opened with the sunroof switch and
the switch is turned to the “OPEN” direction for more than 5 seconds,
the sunroof cannot completely be either closed or opened by operating the switch once. The sunroof will be moving only when the switch
is being turned. When this happens, re-calibrate the beginning point
of the sunroof to reactivate the one touch button.

CAUTION
• When the wiper switch is in the “AUTO” position, the wiper will operate once if the
initial engine start is made. This may wear the wiper blades prematurely (especially
in winter). Therefore, other than rainy days, set the switch to the “OFF” position. In
winter, ensure that the wiper blades are not frozen and are not stuck to the
windshield. Otherwise, this may cause some damage to the wiper motor.
• If you use only the wipers when the glass is dry, this could scratch the glass and wear
the wiper blades prematurely. Use the wiper with the washer when the glass is dry.
• Turn the wiper switch to the “OFF” position before any car wash to avoid unwanted
operation of the wipers.
• When it does not rain, turn the wiper switch into the “OFF” position.
WARNING
When you clean the windshield over the sensor with damp clothes, the wiper may
operate suddenly. It could cause serious injury. Make sure to place the wiper switch
and ignition switch to the “OFF” position when not in use.

• When the light and wiper switches are in the “AUTO”
position, head lights come on if the rain sensor detects any rain. The head lights stay on for 3 minutes after the rain stops.
• The speed of the wipers becomes a little faster
when it is dark enough to turn on the automatic lights.
• When the ignition key is in the “ON” position, the wiper
will automatically operate once if the wiper switch
is turned from the “OFF” to the “AUTO” position. But
the wiper will not operate again to prevent any damage to the window even though the wiper switch

The cruise control is an automatic speed control system that maintains a desired driving speed without using the accelerator pedal.
The vehicle speed must be greater than 36 km/h to engage the cruise
control. This feature is especially useful for motorway driving.
CAUTION
Improper use of the cruise control could be dangerous.
• Do not use on winding roads.
• Do not use in heavy traffic.
• Do not use on slippery, wet roads.
This could result in a loss of control, collision, and/or personal injuries.
Setting a Desired Speed
1. To operate the cruise control, accelerate to your
desired speed using the accelerator pedal over 36
km/h.
2. When the desired speed is reached, push up the
ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever or push
down the DECEL switch for 1 second per one
switching and then release the accelerator pedal
slowly.
3. Now, the vehicle is cruised by this system with the
set speed.
4. And you can set to other vehicle speeds again with
above steps after an accelerator pedal intervention
during the cruise control running.
1. Push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever and

hold it until the desired speed is reached without an accelerator pedal intervention.
2. When the desired speed is reached, release the lever.
• While the cruise control system is not running
1. Accelerate using the accelerator pedal over 36 km/h.
2. Push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever and
hold it.
3. And then release the accelerator pedal slowly.
4. When the desired speed is reached, release the lever.
• Tap-up while the cruise control system is running
1. Push up the ACCEL switch of the cruise control lever less
than 0.5 second per one switching while the cruise control system is running. This is a tap-up switching.
2. When you operate a tap-up switching, the vehicle is accelerated for 1.3 km/h over the previous set speed.
3. If you want to accelerate for 13 km/h, operate the tap-up
switching ten times without accelerating with the cruise
control system.
15
Decelerating with the Cruise Control System
• While the cruise control system is running
1. Push down the DECEL switch of the cruise control lever
and hold it until the desired speed is reached without a
brake pedal intervention. But the cruise control system
cannot maintain the cruise function at less than 34 km/h.
2. When the desired speed is reached, release the lever.
• When the cruise control system is not running
1. Push down the DECEL switch of the cruise control lever
and hold it.
2. And then release the accelerator pedal slowly.
3. When the desired speed is reached, release the lever.
But the cruise control system cannot maintain the cruise
function at less than 34 km/h.
• Tap-down while the cruise control system is running
1. Push down the DECEL switch of the cruise control lever
less than 0.5 second per one switching while the cruise
control system is running. This is a tap-down switching.
2. When you operate a tap-down switching, the vehicle is
decelerated for 1 km/h below the previous set speed.
3. If you want to decelerate for 10 km/h, operate the tap-down
switching ten times without the brake pedal intervention.
The cruise control system will be canceled when one or more
items of the following conditions are applied;
0
1
Even if the cruise control is canceled, the previous set cruise
speed can be recovered by pushing toward the RSM (resume)
switch of the cruise control lever when the current vehicle
speed is over 36 km/h without an acceleration intervention.
But if you turn off the ignition switch, the memorized set
speed is cleared and you cannot recover the previous set
speed.
CAUTION
The resume position should only be used if the driver is fully aware of
this speed and wishes to resume this particular speed.
1. When the brake pedal is depressed.
2. When the cruising speed is downed less than 34 km/h.
3. When the off switch is operated by pulling rearward the
cruise control lever.
4. When ABD is activated.
And the cruise control system can be operated again in driving state.
CAUTION
Keep the main cruise control switch in the neutral position when not
using the cruise control.

tion pedal intervention.
3. When the cruise control lever is failed.
4. When the brake switch and the brake light switch input
signal are implausible.
And the cruise control system cannot be operated again in
driving state. In this case, you should stop the vehicle, and
turn off the ignition switch and then turn it on again. After you
do that, you can use the cruise control system again. But if
the cruise control system isn’t recovered, you should contact a Ssangyong Dealer for diagnosis of the cruise control
system.
Using the Cruise Control on Hills
How well the cruise control works on hills depends on the
speed, load, and the steepness of the hill.
When going up steep hills, you may have to depress the
accelerator pedal to maintain your speed. When going
downhill, you may have to brake or shift to a lower gear to
keep your speed down.
Applying the brake takes you out of the cruise control.
Abnormal changes of the selector lever can damage the engine.
Do not move the shift lever to Neural while driving at the set speed.
Automatic transmission damage may result.
CAUTION
• The speed that has been set may not be maintained on uphill or
downhill slopes.
• The speed may drop to less than the set speed on a steep uphill
grade. The accelerator must be used if you want to maintain that
speed.
• The speed may increase to more than the set speed on a steep
downhill grade. When the speed increases too much, turn off the
cruise control.

The Electronic Vehicle Stability Control Program (ESP) is a
supplementary driving safety system when your vehicle is
unstably moving in a certain situation, such as during a
sharp corner. The ESP applies brakes on a certain wheel(s)
or controls the engine torque to compensate vehicle stability.
These actions help your vehicle avoid dangerous situations.
The ESP functions automatically, working only in very unstable conditions; it does not operate under normal driving
conditions. If the ESP is engaged, the ESP warning light will
flicker on the instrument cluster and a warning alarm will
sound.
BAS (Brake Assist System) Function
A certain driver such as a female driver, aged driver, or a
driver with a disability is unable to depress the brake pedal
as hard as necessary. When the ESP system recognizes
any emergency situations requiring hard braking, it automatically delivers an extra high braking pressure to the wheels.
ARP (Active Rollover Protection) Function
This function is a part of the ESP system. When your vehicle
moves in an extremely unstable manner, this function helps
the vehicle maintain normal stability.
CAUTION
The ARP system more powerfully controls the engine and each
wheel than the ESP function. When the ARP is applied, a sudden
decrease of vehicle speed or powerful braking force can make
steering your vehicle difficult.

Operation of HDC
When all operational conditions are met, HDC is applied
and the green HDC indicator blinks. HDC automatically decreases the vehicle speed to 7 km/h in the 2 wheel (2H) or
4 wheel high speed mode (4H) position. HDC automatically
stops at speeds less than 7 km/h or when the slope descends slowly. It is normal to have strong vibrations and
noise from the brake system when HDC is applied.
WARNING
• HDC is designed for driving on off-road steep grades.
• Unnecessary usage of HDC can cause malfunctions in the brake
system or ESP. Do not use HDC when driving on normal roads.
• If driving on a level road with HDC on and ready for use, HDC
may be applied during sharp cornering or passing over a speed
bump. Therefore, do not activate HDC while driving on normal
roads.
• If the red HDC indicator illuminates, HDC is overheated or
malfunctioning. If the indicator is on even after the system has
cooled down enough, have the nearest authorized dealer or service center check the system.
• It is normal to have strong vibrations and noise from the brake
system when HDC is applied.

CAUTIONS WHEN USING 4-WHEEL DRIVE MODE
• There could be mechanical noises and shocks during mode
changes. However, these are normal conditions due to the mode
changing operations.
• Use only the 2H mode on a normal paved surface. Do not drive
your vehicle in the “4H” position on paved road surfaces. Doing
so will result in damages to the drive train.
• Driving in a 4 wheel mode on a normal paved surface will cause
unwanted noises, premature wear of tires, or increased fuel
consumption.
• If the “4WD CHECK” warning light stays on, have the 4WD system checked by the nearest Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong
Authorized Service Center.
• When cornering a curved road in a 4-wheel drive mode, there
could be some mechanical shocks and resistances in vehicle’s
drive train. These are normal conditions due to internal resistance in the drive train when the 4-wheel drive mode is properly
working. To avoid damages to the drive train, do not drive your
vehicle at an excessively high speed on a sharply curved road.

by a Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service Center as soon as
possible if this condition occurs.
• ABS is a device that prevents wheels from locking during braking to allow
steering. However, the ABS system does not shorten the stopping distance.
CAUTION
When the engine starts and the vehicle starts to move, ABS performs self
diagnosis by transferring hydraulic pressure to the braking units. This may cause
some noise and vibrations. This means ABS is properly functioning.

WARNING
If the engine halts due to a completely empty fuel tank and the engine check light comes on even after refueling, the engine’s power
output may decrease within a certain driving distance (about 30 km).
CAUTION
When this warning light comes on, the vehicle operates in safety
mode to maintain minimum driving conditions and to prevent the system from being damaged. In this mode, the engine driving force may
be decreased or the engine may stall. When this happens, have the
system checked at the nearest Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service Center.
If this light does not go off after engine starting or comes on while
driving, it means there is a malfunction in the system. Running the
engine with the oil pressure warning light on can cause serious damage to the engine. Have the lubricating system checked by a
Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service Center.

• You should stop your vehicle and fully depress the
clutch pedal before you shift into the reverse position.
• If the clutch pedal is frequently half-depressed, the clutch
disk will be easily worn out. Use only as needed.
• Do not put your foot on the clutch pedal if not shifting
gears.
• When shifting from a high gear into a lower gear, ensure that the RPM gauge pointer does not go into the
red zone on the gauge. Especially, when shifting from
the 5th to the 4th gear, moving the gear shift lever to
the left too much may result in shifting into the 2nd
gear. This will cause a sudden increase of the engine speed and may damage the engine and the
transmission.
• When the temperature of the transmission oil is very
low on a cold day, you may have some difficulty for
shifting gears. This is a normal phenomenon.
• When you have difficulty for shifting into the 1st or
reserve gear, put the gear shift lever into the neural
position and release the clutch pedal. Then, depress
the pedal again and shift into the intended gear.
• While your vehicle is moving, do not put your hand
on the shift lever except to shift gears. Otherwise,
the gear may be disengaged from the transmission
and the internal transmission components may be
damaged.
• Do not shift into the second next higher gear from a
lower gear. Also, while the engine is rotating fast, do
not shift into a lower gear.
