RUNNING-IN PERIOD
There are no particular run-in rules for your
new Korando. However, following a few
simple precautions for the first few hundred
kilometers can add to the good future performance, economy and long life of your
Korando.
• Do not race the engine.
• While driving, keep your engine speed
(RPM) below the red zone.
• Avoid full-throttle starts.
• Avoid high-speed stops, except in emergencies. This will allow the brakes to bed
in properly.
• Drive at varying speeds, trying not to
“strain” the engine.
• Refrain from towing a trailer or an other
vehicle.
• Avoid harsh operations such as abrupt
start, sudden acceleration and prolonged
high speed driving.
These operations not only have a detrimental effect on the engine but also
cause excessive fuel and oil consumption, which could result in the malfunction of the engine components.
Especially, avoid full-throttle acceleration
in low gear.
BEFORE ENTERING THE CAR
• Ensure that windows, outside rear view
mirrors and lights are clean, undamaged
and unobstructed.
• Visually note inflation condition of tyres.
• Check that all lights, switches and controls work properly.
• Check the area behind the vehicle if you
are about to reverse.
• Check under the vehicle for leaks.
• Check the engine oil level and other fluid/
oil levels in engine compartment.
BEFORE DRIVING OFF
• Be sure you understand your car and
its equipment and how to operate it
safely.
• Adjust your seating position.
• Adjust inside and outside mirrors.
• Ensure that all occupants of the car
have fastened their seat belts.
• Check the operation of the warning
lights when the ignition key is turned to
“ON” position.
• Check all gauges.
• Release the parking brake and ensure
that the brake warning light goes out.
WARNING
Check to ensure that all light, signaling systems and warning indicators
are in working order.

SEAT BELT PRECAUTIONS
To protect you and your passengers in the
event of an accident, it is compulsory that
the seat belts are worn by all occupants
while the vehicle is in driving. Seat belts
should be worn correctly.
Each seat belt is 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
Occupants could be injured seriously in collisions or sudden maneuvers.
• Wear seat belts at all times when
driving or riding.
• Never use a belt for more than one
person at a time.
• Do not wear seat belt over hard or
breakable objects in pockets or on
clothing.
BEFORE DRIVING YOUR CAR 1–21
WARNING
•
Seatbelts are designed to bear
upon the bony structure of the
body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the
pelvis, chest and shoulders, as
applicable; wearing the lap section of the belt across the abdominal area must be avoided.
•
Seatbelt 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.
•
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.

due to sliding under the lap belt during an accident.
CAUTION

more serious injury.
• Buckle release button should face
outward.
• Insert seat belt buckle into proper
buckle catch.
• Do not put anything into the opening where seat belt passes through

Care of Seat Belts
Always keep the seat belts clean and dry.
Care should be taken to avoid contamination
of the webbing with polishes, oils and chemicals, and particularly battery acid.

soap and 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.
Ssangyong recommends replacing all component parts of the seat belts in use during
a collision. No replacement is required after
a minor collision if a Ssangyong Dealer or
Ssangyong Authorized Service Operation
finds that no damage has occurred and
judges everything to be in proper working
order.
Seat belts and components that were not in
use during the collision must also be inspected and replaced if they show signs of
damage or faulty operation.
CAUTION
Damaged seat belt can cause more
serious injury.
• Inspect seat belt assemblies
periodically.
• Inspect seat belts and other constituent part after every collision.
• Replace seat belts if webbing become frayed, contaminated or
damaged in any way.
• Replace the entire seat belt assembly after severe impact even if the
damage is not obvious.
CAUTION
Improper seat belt could cause more
serious injuries.
Do not modify seat belt.
