Genuine Parts
Always use only Ssangyong genuine parts for replacement.
Ssangyong is not liable for any damage caused by the use
of non-Ssangyong genuine parts and accessories.
1. Be sure to use the same size and type of tires from the
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.
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.
1. Keep the brake pedal depressed and shift the gear selection lever into the “D” position. Make sure that the
“D1” 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 the
“D” position. Especially on a hill, move the lever to the
“D” position with the brake pedal depressed and wait
for a couple of seconds until the position indicator of
“D1” is on the instrument cluster.
3. Your vehicle may move backward on a steep hill even if
the shift lever is engaged into the
Therefore, always depress the brake pedal when you
need to stop on such a hill.
“D” position.
Cautions While Driving
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. Do not operate the steering wheel abruptly. This will
cause unstable driving situations and can end with an
unexpected accident.
4. Abrupt Start, Acceleration and Stop
z
Avoid abrupt starts, acceleration or stops. It may
cause high fuel consumption or an accident.
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 shift lever to the
3. If possible, do not stop and park the vehicle on the steep
road.

oil, or other easily inflammable materials are kept. While
driving or after immediately driving, the muffler and exhaust pipe are hot; inflammable materials near the vehicle might cause a fire.
“P” position.
Extinguisher
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.
Precautions for Children or Elderly Car
Passengers
z
Do not leave infants, children or old people alone in the
vehicle. An accident can take place if they misuse some
devices in the vehicle. In addition, the temperature inside the car can rise when doors or windows are closed
during summer, placing passengers at risk for
suffocation.
z
Do not let children, infants, old people, or a pregnant
woman sit in the front passenger seat with the airbag.
The degree of shock of the airbag’s expansion can be
fatal or inflict serious injuries to such passengers.
z
Keep devices such as the ignition key out of children’s
reach to avoid damaging the vehicle or prevent accidents.
Do Not Stick Any Part of Your Body Out of
the Window
Do not stick any part of your body out of the window and
sunroof while the car is running or while you are maneuvering to park. You might be hurt by the passing vehicles or other
unseen obstacles.
Do not sleep in a parked car with closed windows. In
particular, if you stay or sleep in the car with the engine
running and the air-conditioner or heater turned on, you
can suffocate to death.
z
Sleeping in a closed space with the engine running puts
you at high risk of suffocation from the exhausts.
z
While sleeping, you may accidentally touch the gear shift
lever or accelerator and thereby cause an accident.
z
While sleeping in the car with the engine running, you
may accidentally step on the accelerator, thereby overheating the engine and exhaust pipe and causing a fire.
No Alchohol and Drugs! Take A Rest!
z
Avoid driving for an extended period of time. Driving continuously without rest makes you prone to dozing off and
thus causes an accident. For your safety, take a rest every 2 hours.
z
Driving under the influence of alchohol or drugs is
prohibited. It impairs judgment, making driving highly
risky. Drunk driving is also a legal offense.
Do not drive with Trunk or Doors Open
z
Do not drive with the trunk open. Otherwise, you can be
suffocated by the exhaust gas.
z
If you drive your vehicle with the trunk open, loose objects inside the vehicle may cause an accident.
z
Driving the vehicle with the doors open puts the passenger at risk of being thrown out, which can cause serious
injury.
z
Always drive the vehicle with the doors and trunk closed.
Doors can be accidentally opened and doors are
opened by children touching knobs. Those may cause
a serious accident.
Check for any Passing Vehicle when Getting Off
When getting off, check the rear and side of the car for passing vehicles or pedestrians. Vehicles or motorcycles coming from the rear, if unchecked, might stumble on you when
you open the door.
Use Only Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong
Authorized Workshop
Have your vehicle checked or repaired at the Ssangyong
Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Workshop. Repairing your
vehicle by other service stations will not be covered under
the terms of our warranty. And the warranty is also not liable for the problems caused by such repair.
The check engine indicator on the instrument cluster comes
on when the fuel or major electronic systems of the engine
are not working properly. As a result, the engine’s power output may decrease or the engine may stall. If this happens,
please visit the nearest Ssangyong dealer or authorized service operator.
There are no particular running-in rules for your new
vehicle. However, following a few simple precautions for
the first 1,000 km can add to good future performance, fuel
economy and long life of your vehicle.
z
Allow the engine to warm up after starting.
z
Avoid harsh operations such as abrupt fast starts, sudden
acceleration and prolonged high speed driving.
z
Do not race the engine.
z
Drive at proper speeds, trying not to “strain” the engine.
z
Avoid overload when climbing.
Bumper Washing
1. Remove the dirt or dust first with water and a sponge.
2. If the bumper is contaminated by engine oil or any
lubricants, wipe it off using mild soapy water.
CAUTION
Do not use abrasive wax and strong cleaning materials such as steel
wool which will scratch the vehicle body and bumper.
Cleaning the Outside of the Windshield
If your windshield is not clear after using the windshield
washer, or if the wiper blade chatters when running, wax or
another material may be on the blade or windshield, clean
the outside of the windshield with cleaning powder or an
equivalent non abrasive cleaner. Your windshield is clean if
beads do not form when rinsing with water.
CAUTION
Do not clean the windshield with oily or waxy cloth. It may cause
noise or vibration while operating the wipers, poor front view, and
light reflection at night time. In addition, the windshield may not be
wiped off completely when it rains.
Cleaning Aluminum Wheels, Alloy Wheels, and
Wheel Covers
Preserve the original appearance of wheels or wheel covers
by keeping them clean and free from build-up of road dirt and/
or road salt. Wash the parts regularly. Do not use abrasive
cleaners or cleaning brushes, as they could damage the
finish.
All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome
plated wheels should be cleaned regularly with mild soap
and water to prevent corrosion. To remove heavy soil, select
a non-abrasive, non-acidic cleaner. Do not use scouring pads,
steel wool, a bristle brush or metal polishes. Avoid automatic
car washes that use acidic solutions or harsh brushes that
may damage the wheels’ protective finish.
Clean the wheels after driving on a coastal road or on a road
where the snow removal chemicals (calcium chloride etc.)
has been spreaded.
CAUTION
Never clean the aluminum wheel or alloy wheel with acidic or alkalic
detergents. Otherwise, wheel’s protective finish could be damaged.
Engine Brake
When the accelerator pedal is released while the vehicle
is in motion, the engine speed decreases. This decreased
engine speed creates an extra braking force. On a down
hill, engaging a lower gear can generate a slower engine
speed and eventually slow down the vehicle speed. By using this engine brake, you can decrease your vehicle speed
without excessively using the brake system. The lower
gear, the more braking force.
CAUTION
z
Do not excessively apply the brake pedal while going down a
long hill. The brake system will overheat, experience vapor lock
or the fade phenomenon, and lose the braking force.
Fade?
Reduction or loss in braking force due to loss of friction
between brake pads and disc.
Vapor Lock?
When the brake system is overheated, the fluid in the
brake lines will boil and form bubbles. Only the bubbles
will be compressed when the brake pedal is depressed.
So the brakes cannot work properly due to loss of braking force.
If unauthorized modification is made on the vehicle, the
company is not liable for repairing the modified parts
even during the term of warranty. Other part problems
caused by modification are also not covered.
The vehicle you bought is equipped with a large number
of precision parts that have passed through countless experiments and tests. These parts are deeply and systematically interwoven. Therefore, if any part is modified or altered without authorization, said parts may be damaged
from the decrease in performance or overloading, which
can then cause critical damage to the vehicle and human
life.
Do not modify without authorization the driving gear
system, including the engine, just to upgrade the
vehicle’s performance and beauty.
z
Prohibition of using unauthorized modification of the engine or parts for the exhaust
Changing without authorization the preset value in the fuel
supply system and inlet, exhaust and electric systems, and
changing or adding unauthorized parts is illegal and may
cause serious problem with the vehicle’s durability.
In particular, modifying your vehicle into the LPG vehicle
might bring serious damage to the vehicle's performance and durability. Not only the engine but also the
transmission and wheel alignment are excluded from the
warranty.
If you install a wheel dust cover on the tires to enhance
the beauty of tire parts, the heat caused by friction in braking might bring serious problems in performance, causing Vapor Lock and Fade phenomena.
Do not modify the car’s audio system and install other
additional electronic devices such as wireless communication equipment, rear view camera, LCD TV, and remote starting device.
This vehicle’s electronic system contains electronic circuits
and fuses for the installation of standard electric and electronic devices. If you add new devices or circuits using the
several existing devices and circuits at a time, electric and
electronic devices can be damaged from overloading and
may ignite. In addition, when you do drilling work in installing devices such as an antenna may expose the vehicle
to rusting.
PRECAUTIONS REGARDING UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATION & ALTERATION (II)
Do not use the nonstandard tires, wheels, and other related parts.
Installing nonstandard tires such as tires with greater width
than prescribed can wear out the power delivery system
or friction-damage related parts. In addition, other problems such as increase of fuel consumption and braking
distance, vehicle's shudder, and decrease of steering
power can all degrade the vehicle’s performance. The
speedometer and odometer can also become inaccurate.
The vehicle with automatic transmission may have the
shock in changing the speed.
Do not use duplicate key
A duplicate key might cause malfunction to the ignition key
cylinder and deter the ignition motor to return to the original state. If so, electronic circuitry can be damaged and
may ignite from the ignition motor’s continuing rotation.
Do not equip the sunroof or color glasses at your
discretion.
If you install a sunroof by cutting the vehicle’s roof, rust and
leakage may occur in the cut part. Installing color glasses
to block ultraviolet rays and better appearance may cause
leakage and other many problems.
Do not equip the vehicle with bumper guards sold in the
market.
Installing bumper guard or other guard bars that are being sold in the market may cause problems in parking and
stopping due to the extended length of vehicle, and increase in fuel cost due to additional vehicle weight, and
rusting may occur in the holes for equipping the guards.
And because of the absence of shock absorber in the
bumper guard, even accidents during low-speed driving will
be much serious compared with the damage that unmodified cars might sustain.
Do not modify or replace the vehicle flooring or the seats
at your discretion.
z
When replacing the interior flooring of vehicle with laminated paper
To improve the comfort of cushion and to facilitate the cleaning of the vehicle, some drivers replace the flooring with
laminated paper after removing the seats. However, this
may cause damage to the various electronic system control units and wiring. This also may hinder the function of
the seat rail that enables for the seat to move forward and
backward. In this case, the locking system to fix the location of seats may malfunction, which might lead to a serious accident if the loose seats tilt forward or backward during an uphill climb or downhill descent.
When exchanging the seats with new ones or equipping
separate seat covers.
There are several types of seat covers according to role
and function although with the same vehicle type. Replacing the seats with new ones may alter the wiring system
or over-use the wires because a seat has various electric
connections and wiring diagram. As mentioned earlier, this
may damage the wiring and related equipment or cause
fire due to the overloading on the rated capacity.
In addition, replacing the seat cover may damage the electronic equipment caused by cut or pressured wire. Such a
situation may also cause ventilation problems, fire, or
noise.
Do not equip with a separate accessory or assistant device on the vehicle operational device.
Making the selection lever longer or equipping with an accelerator pedal and brake pedal pad may make the driver
prone to make a mistake while driving.
Do not install products that may decrease the driving resistance such as sticker, molding, air dam, or windproofing products.
The sticker’s adhesives may damage the coated surface
of the vehicle. If parts of the car are drilled to attach molding and other functional parts, the area near the holes will
rust and other unfamiliar sound may occur while driving.
Especially if the attached parts are not fixed well, it may
damage the vehicle or even cause a fatal accident.
In using audio in the vehicle, do not use illegally copied
CD and DVD, which violates relevant laws. Such discs
can also cause malfunction of the audio head unit and
changer. In addition, such discs may also not play
properly.
When installing the vehicle with unauthorized parts or modifying it in ways including the cases mentioned previously,
please keep in mind that the changed parts and related
problems with changed auto parts shall not be covered by
warranty.
This key can only open/close the door and start the engine. It
cannot open the trunk lid or glove box. To prevent from valuables from being stolen, give only this key when valet parking.

z
If the engine produce severe engine knocking, have the
system checked at the nearest Ssangyong Dealer or
Ssangyong Authorized Workshop.
Fuel with too low an octane number can cause pre-ignition
(detonation), severe engine knocking, poor acceleration and
poor fuel consumption. Ssangyong can not be held liable for
resultant damage.
CAUTION
z
There are various types of gasoline with different octane ratings.
There are also some low-quality gasoline types whose octane
number is not specified. Never use low-quality gasoline; doing so
may cause drops in power, waste fuel, produce excessive exhaust gas and severe vibration.
z
Do not add any additive into the fuel tank. Using non-prescribed
fuel additives could severely damage the vehicle. Ssangyong cannot be held liable for such damage.
z
Using fuel with inappropriate grade or pouring improper fuel additives into the fuel tank may seriously damage the engine and catalytic converter. Use only the recommended unleaded gasoline.
Knocking
Knocking occurs when the fuel is incompletely burned due to premature or abnormal combustion in a spark-ignition internal combustion engine. If this happens, the pinging sound, abnormal vibration or
a drop in power may occur.
Octane Number
The octane number is a rating of a gasoline that indicates its propensity to cause knocking, i.e. anti-knocking.
A fuel with a high octane number exhibits better resistance to knocking and has fine combustion. Engines that have been designed to
have higher efficiencies and power outputs require gasoline with a
high octane number.
CAUTION
For correct octane rating setting and other use of gasoline (ex.
Leaded), consult your Ssangyong Dealer.
CAUTION
Engine and exhaust system will be damaged.
z
Do not use leaded fuel to the vehicle for unleaded fuel.
z
Use the fuel with specified or higher Research Octane Number
recommended for your country by Ssangyong.

ESP (vehicle posture control) function is working under extremely unstable vehicle driving conditions.
The ESP system is an electronic vehicle stability control system and driving safety supplementary system that helps to
avoid dangerous situations by applying brakes on the wheels
or the engine torque to compensate vehicle stability when it
is extremely unstable under conditions such as sharp
cornering. This system also includes brake assist function
for the handicapped persons because they depress the brake
pedal softly even when hard braking is required. If the system recognizes that it is an emergency case requires hard
braking, it delivers high braking pressure to the wheels. The
ESP function works when vehicle stability is very unstable.
The ESP system does not work under normal driving
conditions. However, you can check the ESP operation with
flickering ESP warning lamp on the instrument panel and
warning alarm sounds.
ESP Warning Lamp and Warning Alarm During
ESP Operations
When the ESP is operating, the ESP warning lamp on the
instrument panel flickers and warning alarm sounds to warn
the driver. When the ESP operation stops, the ESP warning
lamp goes off. The ESP warning lamp flickers at least 4 times
even when the ESP system activates for a very short period
of time. This means the ESP system activates when the vehicle is unstable to correct the vehicle stability. When the Esp
warning lamp and the warning alarm turn on, reduce the
speed and pay extra attention to the road.
Stopping ESP Function With ESP OFF Switch
When the ESP switch is pushed once, the ESP function stops
and the vehicle is driven independently from the sensor
outputs. At this moment, the ESP warning lamp on the instrument panel comes on and the ESP (vehicle stability control)
function will be cancelled. However, the ABS works normally.
Resuming ESP Function With ESP OFF Switch
If you push the ESP OFF switch again when the ESP function is
released (when ESP warning lamp is turned on), the system
will be resumed and the ESP warning lamp on the instrument
panel goes out by resuming the ESP system.
CAUTION
z The ESP system turns off when the ignition is turned off. It will
resume when the engine is started again.
z If the vehicle is controlled by ESP during driving, the ESP OFF switch
will not work.
z If the ESP warning lamp comes on, the ESP related system is
defective. At this moment, the ABS works in a basic way.
However, make sure to check the vehicle at the nearest
Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Workshop.
z If the ESP warning lamp and the ABS warning lamp come on
simultaneously, both ESP and ABS system are not working. Do not
over speed your vehicle and be sure to check or repair the vehicle at
the nearest Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Workshop.
z If the ESP warning light flickers and the alarm sounds, it means
that the vehicle stability is controlled by the ESP function when
vehicle stability is extremely unstable. In this situation, drive the
vehicle with maximum safety.
z If the ESP activates while vehicle is running, the ESP warning lamp
on the instrument panel flickers and alarm sounds at 0.1 second
intervals.
z The ESP operation means that the vehicle stability is extremely
unstable.
z The ESP system is only a supplementary device for the vehicle.
When the vehicle exceeds its physical limits, it cannot be
controlled. Do not rely on the system. Keen on the safe driving.
DRIVING IMPRESSION WHEN ESP IS
WORKING
When the ESP system activates, the driving impression can
be different depending on vehicle driving conditions. For
example, you will feel differently when the ESP system is activated during (1) when the ABS is operating with the brakes
applied and (2) when the brakes are not applied on a curve.
If the ESP system operates when the brake is applied, the
brake pressure will be increased on the corresponding wheel
which already has braking pressure for the ESP controls.
Thus, the ESP system would make the driver feel more
abruptly when the brakes are applied during the ESP system
activation.
NOISE AND VIBRATION THAT DRIVER
SENSE WHEN ESP SYSTEM IS OPERATING
The ESP system may transfer noise and vibration to the driver
due to the pressure changes caused by the motor and valve
operations in a very short period of time. Extreme cornering
will trigger the ESP operation and this will make the driver
feel noise and vibration due to sudden brake application. Also,
the ESP system controls the engine output. So, the driver may
notice the engine output decrease even when the accelerator pedal is being applied.
The remote audio control switch is located at the bottom of
the steering wheel.
NOTE
For details, refer to the separately provided Audio and Multivision
manual.
You can control the audio system using audio remote control
switches on steering wheel. For more information, refer to the

1. To operate the cruise control, accelerate to your desired speed using the acceleration pedal more over 40 KPH.
2. When the desired speed is reached, push up the ACC•SET switch of a cruise
control lever or push down the DEC switch for 1 second per one switching and
then release the acceleration pedal, slowly.
3. Now, the vehicle is cruised by this system with set speed.
4. And you can set to other vehicle speed again with above steps after acceleration pedal intervention during cruise control running.
The cruise control system provides a
constant cruising speed for your comport when driving on a highway or on
other road where frequent deceleration and acceleration are not required.
Our cruise control system can maintain a constant vehicle speed from
40 KPH to maximum vehicle speed.
And this system is directly controlled
only by MSE (Engine Management
System) of EGAS-V (Electronic acceleration control system version 5) without other components.
1. Push up the ACC•SET switch of a cruise control lever and hold it until the desired speed is reached without an acceleration pedal intervention.
2. When the desired speed is reached, release the lever.
• While cruise control system is not running
1. Accelerate using the acceleration pedal more over 40 KPH.
2. Push up the ACC•SET switch of a cruise control lever and hold it.
3. And then release the acceleration pedal, slowly.
4. When the desired speed is reached, release the lever. (Tap up while cruise control system is running)
• Tap up while cruise control system is running
1. Push up the ACC•SET switch of a 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 KPH over
the previous set speed.
3. If you want to accelerate for 10 KPH, operate the tap-up switching ten times without accelerating with cruise control system.
Page 86
• Decelerating with cruise control system (While Cruise control system is running)
1. Push down the DEC Switch of a 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 40 KPH.
2. When the desired speed is reached, release the lever.
Recovery of Set Speed
Even if the cruise control is canceled, the previous set cruise
speed can be recovered by pushing toward the resume switch
of a cruise control lever when the current vehicle speed is
higher than 40 KPH without acceleration intervention. But if
you turn off the ignition switch, the memorized set speed is
cleared and you cannot recover the previous set speed.
• When Cruise control system is not running
1. Push up the DEC switch of a cruise control lever and hold it.
2. And then release the acceleration 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 40 KPH.
• Tap down while cruise control system is running
1. Push down the DEC switch of a 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 KPH below the previous set speed.
3. If you want to decelerate for 10 KPH, operate the tap-down
switching ten times without brake pedal intervention.
Normal Cancellation of Cruise Control
The cruise control system will be canceled when one or more
items of the following conditions is applied;
1. When the brake pedal is depressed.
2. When the automatic transmission is shifted to the ‘N’, ‘P’
or ‘R’ position.
3. When the cruising speed is downed less than 40 KPH.
4. When the off switch is operated by pulling rearward the
cruise control lever.
5. When ABD or ESP is activated or wheel slip occurs.
And the cruise control system can be operated again in driving state.
1. When the rapid deceleration is applied without braking.
2. When the rapid acceleration is applied without acceleration pedal intervention.
3. When the cruise control lever is failed.
4. When the brake switch and brake light switch input signal
is plausible.
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
Ssangyong Distributor for diagnosis of the cruise control
system.
CAUTION
• Keep the main cruise control switch as neutral position when not
using the cruise control.
• For safety, do not use the cruise control system when driving in
heavy traffic, winding roads, in snow or on slushy surfaces.
• Pay particular attention to the driving conditions whenever using
the cruise control system.
CAUTION
Risk of accident!
Do not use the cruise control function when the road is slippery.
CAUTION
The speed can be increased briefly (for example for overtaking) by
using the accelerator. When the accelerator is released the previously set speed is resumed.
The speed cannot always be maintained on steep inclines. When
the incline levels out, the set speed is resumed.
Only use cruise control if traffic conditions make it possible to travel
at a steady speed.
The resume position should only be used if the driver is fully aware
of this speed and wishes to resume this particular speed.
