1-6. New Vehicle Break-in

New Vehicle Break-in
Since the frictional resistance between the moving parts of new vehicle is
much larger in the initial use than normal conditions. The break-in effect of
initial use will have a great impact on the vehicle's life, operation reliability and
economy, so the use of new vehicle must strictly enforce the regulations. The
break-in period is 3,000 kilometers in general.
▇ Driving regulations of new vehicle break-in period
Within the first 1,000 km:
• Prohibit driving at full speed;
• Driving speed should not be more than 100 km/h;
• Avoid driving at maximum speed in each gear.
Within the first 1,000 - 1,500 km:
• Driving speed can be gradually increased to the highest speed;
• Engine speed can be gradually increased to the maximum allowable speed.
▇ Driving recommendations after break-in period
• When driving a vehicle, the maximum speed which engine allows to run in
short time is 6,000 r/min. When shifting manually, shift to nearby high gear
while the tachometer pointer reaches the red indicator zone.
• Engine speed should not be too low while driving, it is necessary to shift to
the appropriate gear. When the engine is cold, do not run the engine at its
maximum speed whether in neutral or in other driving gears.
▇ Tire and wheel break-in recommendations:
When starting to use new tires, the best adhesion is not available. Therefore,
new tires also need break-in, so the vehicle should be driven slowly and
especially carefully within the first 100 km of driving.
▇ Braking system break-in recommendations:
New brake lining also needs break-in. Because the brakes cannot provide the
ideal brake friction during the first 200 km. If the braking efficiency is slightly
worse at this stage, increasing depression force on the pedal appropriately.
This condition also applies to the each replacement of braking lining later.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Avoid running engine at unnecessary high speed. Switching to a high gear in
time is helpful to save fuel, reduce operation noise and reduce environmental
pollution.

 1. INTRODUCTION

1-7. How to Save Fuel and Extend Life of Vehicle 1

Saving fuel is largely determined by vehicle conditions and driving habit. Do

INTRODUCTION
not overuse the vehicle, which also helps to extend vehicle's life.
The followings are specific tips for fuel saving:
1. Make sure to maintain proper tire inflation pressure. Insufficient tire inflation
pressure will lead to tire wear and fuel waste.
2. The vehicle should not be loaded with unnecessary weight. Heavy load
increases engine load, resulting in high fuel consumption.
3. Avoid warm-up idling for a long time. The vehicle can be driven once the
engine runs smoothly. The warm-up time in cold winter will be longer than
other seasons.
4. Accelerate slowly and smoothly. Avoid sudden starts.
5. Avoid engine idling for a long time. If you need to park vehicle and wait for a
long time, you should turn off the engine and turn it on again later.
6. Avoid engine out of gear or overspeed. Select proper gears according to
driving road conditions.
7. Avoid continuous acceleration and deceleration. Stop-and-go driving will
waste the fuel.
8. Avoid unnecessary stopping and braking. You should keep a stable speed.
Driving following the traffic lights can minimize parking times, or take full
advantage of road without traffic lights to drive vehicle. Maintain a proper
driving distance with other vehicles to avoid sudden braking. It will also
reduce brake wear.
9. Avoid areas with heavy traffic or traffic jams as much as you can.
10.Do not hold your foot on clutch or brake pedals for a long time. This will
cause premature wear, overheating and high fuel consumption.
11.Keep a proper vehicle speed on the highway. The faster vehicle speed, the
more fuel consumption. Decreasing vehicle speed will save fuel.
12.Keep proper front wheel alignment. Avoid collision with road curbs and
reduce your vehicle speed when driving on rough road surfaces. Improper
front wheel alignment will not only quicken tire wear, but also increase
engine load.
13.Avoid contacting vehicle chassis with mud, etc.
14.Adjust vehicle and keep it in optimal working condition. Dirty air filter,
improper valve clearance, dirty spark plugs, dirty oil and grease, brakes
without adjusted properly, etc. can reduce engine performance and waste
fuel. You must perform maintenance periodically if you want to extend your
vehicle's life and reduce your driving costs. Your vehicle needs to be
serviced more frequently if always driving under severe conditions.

13
1. INTRODUCTION

CAUTION
Never turn off engine when driving downhill. The power steering system and
brake system will not operate normally when engine is not running.

1-8. Precautions Before Driving Vehicle

Safety Check
It is better to do a safety check before driving vehicle. A few minutes of
checking can help ensure safe and pleasant driving.

WARNING
If you perform this check in an enclosed garage, make sure there is
adequate ventilation.

Before Starting Engine

▇ Outside vehicle
1. Tires (including spare tire): Check tire pressure with a tire pressure gauge
and carefully check tires for cuts, damage or excessive wear.
2. Wheel bolts: Make sure no wheel bolts are missing or loose.
3. Fluid leaks: After the vehicle has been parked for a while, check underneath
for leaking fuel, oil, coolant or other fluids (Water dripping from air
conditioning after use is normal).
4. Lights: Make sure the headlights, daytime running lights, brake lights, fog
lights, turn signal lights and other lights are working properly.
5. Intake grilles: Remove snow, leaves or other obstructions from the intake
grilles in front of windshield.
▇ Inside vehicle
1. Spare tools: Make sure you have spare tools, such as jack, wheel bolt
wrench and spare tire.
2. Seat belts: Check if the buckles can be locked securely. Make sure belts are
not worn or frayed.
3. Instrument cluster and controls: Especially make sure the malfunction
indicator lights, indicator lights, and controls are working properly.
4. Brakes: Make sure the pedal has enough clearance.
▇ Engine compartment and engine

1. INTRODUCTION
Parking on Slope
Parking vehicle on a slope is mainly by brake force of park brake. Failure to
apply park brake or park brake malfunction may cause the vehicle to slide
downwards along slope and injury personal or damage to vehicle. When
parking on a slope, it is better to face tires toward one side of vehicle, to
prevent vehicle from moving accidentally.
▇ Parking on downhill with curb
If there is curb on roadside, turn
steering wheel to right by a certain
angle to make front part of front
right wheel close to or against the
curb, to prevent vehicle from sliding
forward along the slope, then apply
the park brake.

OMA13-1038

▇ Parking on uphill with curb

If there is curb on roadside, turn
steering wheel to left by a certain
angle to make rear part of front right
wheel close to or against the curb,
to prevent vehicle from sliding
backward along the slope, then
apply the park brake.

OMA13-1031

▇ Parking on uphill or downhill (without curb)

If there is no curb on roadside, turn
steering wheel right by a large
angle, to prevent vehicle from
driving into center of road after
sliding forward/ backward along the
slope. Turn steering wheel to side
of road so that vehicle is far away
from center of road when moving,
then apply the park brake.
OMA13-1032

 1. INTRODUCTION
▇ Carrying passengers
Before driving, make sure all passengers sit in their seats with their seat belts 1
properly fastened. Do not let the passengers sit in the places where there are

INTRODUCTION
no seats and seat belts, as they are likely to be seriously injured during a
collision.
▇ Locking the vehicle
• When leaving the vehicle unattended, carry smart key with you and lock all
the doors, even if parking the vehicle in the garage or on the sidewalk in
front of your house.
• Park the vehicle in bright and spacious places as much as possible, and do
not expose valuable items.
▇ Exhaust gas
• Avoid inhaling the engine exhaust gas. It contains carbon monoxide (CO),
which is a harmful, colorless and odorless gas. It can cause
unconsciousness or even death after inhaling.
• Make sure the exhaust system has no leakage holes or loose connections.
The exhaust system should be checked usually. If a change in exhaust gas
sound is found, please have the system checked immediately.
• Do not run the engine in a garage or an enclosed area except for the time
needed to drive the vehicle in or out. The exhaust gas cannot escape, which
may cause serious injury.
• Do not stay in a parked vehicle for a long time with the engine running. If it is
unavoidable, vehicle should be parked in a spacious area and adjust
heating and cooling system to forcibly introduce outside air into vehicle.
• Keep the back door closed while driving. An open or unclosed back door
may cause exhaust gas to enter the vehicle.
• To achieve proper operation of vehicle ventilation system, keep intake grilles
free of snow, leaves, or other obstructions.
• If you smell exhaust fumes in vehicle, open windows to allow fresh air to
enter and check vehicle condition.

Check the Exhaust System

The exhaust system should be checked in the following situations:
1. When you smell the exhaust fumes;
2. When you notice a change in the sound of exhaust system;
3. When exhaust system is damaged due to vehicle collision;
4. When the vehicle is lifted for inspection and repair.

1-9. Off-road Driving Precautions

Off-road Driving
Always observe the following precautions to minimize the risk of serious
personal injury or damage to your vehicle:
• Be careful when driving off the road. Do not drive in dangerous areas.
• Place both hands on the outer ring of the steering wheel when driving off the
road.
• Always check your brakes for effectiveness immediately after driving on the
road covered with sand, mud, shallow water or snow.
• The driver and all passengers should fasten their seat belts whenever
vehicle is moving.

WARNING
• After driving on road surfaces covered with tall grass, mud, gravel, sand,
rivers, etc., check if there is grass, bush, paper, rags, stone, sand, etc.
adhering to or trapped on underbody. Clear off any above materials from
the underbody. If driving vehicle with those matters trapped on or adhering
to the underbody, a breakdown or fire could occur.
• When driving off road or on rugged terrain, high speed driving, jumping,
sharp turning and striking objects, etc. are forbidden. Failure to do so may
cause loss of control or vehicle rollover, resulting in death or severe
personnel injury. You are also risking expensive damage to your vehicle's
suspension and chassis.

1-10. Precautions When Driving in the Rain

When Driving on Slippery Road Surfaces
Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, windows
may become fogged-up and road will be slippery.
• Do not drive at high speed when driving on an expressway in rain, because
there may be a layer of water between tires and road surface, preventing
steering system and brakes from operating properly.

18
 1. INTRODUCTION

CAUTION
1
• Sudden braking, acceleration and steering on slippery road surfaces may

INTRODUCTION
cause tire slippage and reduce your ability to control vehicle, resulting in an
accident.
• Sudden changes in engine speed, such as sudden engine braking may
cause vehicle to skid, resulting in an accident.
• After driving through a puddle, lightly depress brake pedal to make sure
brakes are functioning properly. Wet brake lining may prevent brakes from
functioning properly. If brake lining on one side is wet and not functioning
properly, steering control may be affected, resulting in an accident.

Driving Through Water

The vehicle could be seriously

damaged when driving on a road
that has flooded after heavy rain. If
driving through water is
unavoidable, check the depth of the
water and drive slowly and
carefully.

OMA13-1033

1. When you are driving through water, make sure that the engine runs
properly and that the steering and braking system works normally. When
driving smoothly through water, you should switch to low gear and avoid a
sudden depression of the accelerator pedal or a rush driving. Doing so may
prevent water from splashing into the engine.
2. Depress and hold accelerator pedal while driving, make sure vehicle has
adequate and stable power. You should drive through without half-way
stopping, gear shifting or sharp turning.
3. If vehicle stalls in water, never restart it immediately to prevent further
damage to engine. The vehicle should be towed to a safe place where the
water is shallow to find out the cause.

19
1. INTRODUCTION

CAUTION
• Never drive through water that is deeper than wheel rim.
• Water intrusion into engine can cause it to stall, or cause serious internal
damage.
• Water can wash the grease from the wheel bearing, causing rusting and
premature abrasion.
• Driving through water may cause damage to your vehicle drive train
components. Always visually inspect your vehicle's fluids (e.g. engine oil,
transmission fluid, etc.) for signs of leakage after driving through water. Do
not continue to operate vehicle if any fluid leaks, as this may result in
further damage.
• Vehicle traction and braking performance will decrease while driving
through water. The braking distance will increase. Sand and mud that have
accumulated around the brake discs may affect the braking efficiency and
may damage the brake system components. After driving through water,
slightly depress the brake pedal for several times to dry the brakes off.

1-11. Winter Driving Precautions

Winter Driving Tips
• Coolant: Make sure that coolant has anti-freezing function. Only use coolant
recommended by Chery. More details about coolant type selection.
• Battery and cables: Low temperature will decrease power of battery.
Sufficient power should be stored in battery for starting in winter.
• Oil: In winter, it is recommended to choose appropriate engine oil according
to the local temperature condition. The lower viscosity at low temperature,
the better fluidity at low temperature, indicating that the lower the ambient
temperature at which the oil can be used. More details about oil type
selection.
• Door locks: Avoid door locks being frozen. Deicing agent or glycerin should
be sprayed into door lock holes.
• Washer fluid: Use washer fluid containing antifreeze. This product is
available at Chery authorized service station and most vehicle component
distributors.
• Mudguards: Avoid ice and snow accumulation under mudguards. Failure to
do so may cause difficult steering. When driving in cold weather, you should
often stop vehicle to check for ice and snow accumulation under
mudguards. It is recommended that you should take some necessary
emergency items with you depending on different driving destinations. Items
that need to be put in vehicle: Tire chains, window snow scraper, sand or
salt bag, signal flasher, shovel, jumper cable, etc.

20
 1. INTRODUCTION

CAUTION
1
• Do not use water as a substitute for coolant.

INTRODUCTION
• Do not use engine coolant or other alternatives washer fluid, otherwise
vehicle paint will be damaged.

Driving on Road Covered with Ice and Snow

Rapid acceleration on slippery road

surfaces, such as snow or ice
covered roads, may cause the rear
wheels slipping to right or left.
Therefore, please drive at low
speed and operate carefully.

OMA13-1034

It is possible to build up a layer of water film between the tire and road surface
when driving on wet or slushy roads. This may prevent the steering and
braking from operating properly. To reduce the torque and avoid slipping, you
can use 2nd gear (vehicle with manual transmission) when starting off vehicle
on ice or snow covered road surfaces. It is recommended that you enable ESP
function on this occasion.
▇ Driving out silt and ice and snow road
If drive wheel is stuck in silt or ice and snow, please attempt to shake vehicle
at low speed and drive forward and backward repeatedly. Shift the shift lever
between forward position and reverse position several times and depress
accelerator pedal slightly. Avoid shifting the shift lever between forward
position and reverse position for a long period of time, failure to do so may
cause excessive transmission wear.

Tire Chains
Purchase a set of tire chains that match size of the vehicle tires. Pay attention
to the following precautions when installing and removing chains:
1. Follow local regulations when using chains;
2. Install and remove tire chains in a safe location;
3. Install tire chains by following the instructions provided with the tire chains;
4. Chains can only be installed on drive wheels;
5. It is recommended to use the beef tendon chains or rubber chains with a
thickness not exceeding 12 mm, otherwise, tires, rims, drive system, brake
system and wheel guard plates may be damaged, vehicle damages
resulting from improper use of chains are not covered by warranty;

21
1. INTRODUCTION
6. Please consult Chery authorized service station for details about wheels,
tire size.

CAUTION
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents. Failure to
do so may result in the vehicle unable to be driven safely, and may cause
death or serious injury.
• Regulations regarding the use of tire chains vary depending on location
and type of road. Always check local regulations before installing tire
chains;
• Be sure to use chains that are suitable for your vehicle. Installing chain will
affect vehicle handling, please drive carefully. Using improper chains or
improper installing of chains may cause an accident and lead to injuries;
• Please follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the chains
to install and remove chains, park the vehicle in a safe place before
installation and removal. Be sure to turn off the engine before installing
chains (automatic transmission is in P position), place the traffic warning
signs if necessary;
• Do not drive vehicle at more than 30 km/h when chains are installed on
vehicle, or refer to the vehicle speed limit specified by the manufacturer of
chains, whichever is lower. It should avoid dangerous road conditions such
as bumps, potholes, sharp turns etc. when installing chains, do not turn
steering wheel sharply, lock brake urgently, accelerate and decelerate
suddenly etc.

WARNING

PREPARATION FOR DRIVING

Child restraint system precautions:
• For effective protection in accidents and sudden stops, a child must be
properly restrained using a seat belt or an appropriate child restraint
system installed on rear seat depending on age and size of the child.
Holding a child in your arms is not a substitute for a child seat.
• Follow instructions provided by child restraint system manufacturer to
install it properly. If the child restraint system is not properly installed, it
may cause death or serious injury to child in an emergency stop,
emergency steering or accident.
• If the child restraint system interferes with locking device of front seat, do
not install child restraint system in rear seat. Otherwise, child or front
occupant may be killed or seriously injured in event of sudden braking or a
collision.
• Do not allow child to play with the child restraint system lock function belt. If
a belt twists around a child's neck, it may not be released, leading to
chocking, other serious injuries or even death. If this occurs and the buckle
cannot be released, scissors should be used to cut the belt.
When child restraint system is not used:
• When the child restraint system is not in use, it should also be fixed
properly on the seat. Do not place unfixed seat system in the passenger
cabin.
• If it is necessary to remove seat restraint system, take it out after removing
or store it properly in luggage compartment. This will prevent it from
injuring passengers in the event of a sudden stop, sudden steering or an
accident.

4. DRIVING VEHICLE
Vacuum Booster
The vacuum booster is controlled by engine vacuum and it works only when
the engine is running. Therefore, do not coast your vehicle with engine off.

WARNING
Do not coast your vehicle with engine off while driving downhill. To achieve
better braking effect, shift to low gear before driving downhill.

If the vacuum booster does not work because vehicle is being towed or
malfunctioning, brake pedal should be depressed more firmly than usual to
compensate booster braking effect.
Under the condition of normal temperature, special warm working condition of
engine idle speed state within 15 seconds after vehicle starts (the temperature
is lower, and the time is longer), in order to quickly heat activation three-way
catalysts, improve waste gas conversion efficiency, at the same time, the
condition is helpful to the vehicles for parking for a long time (such as
overnight), restore to build vacuum degree of brake vacuum booster, in order
to achieve the optimal condition of vehicle, therefore you are advised to
develop the habit of idle running at least 15 seconds after starting the vehicle
and then driving.

Brake
The brake system adopts X type
arrangement, double circuit brake
system; The system is a hydraulic
system with two independent
subsystems. If one of the
subsystems fails, the other system
can still perform brake function.
However, the brake pedal should be
depressed more firmly than usual
OMA13-4120
and the braking distance will
increase, and the brake system
malfunction indicator remains on.

WARNING
Do not drive vehicle under conditions in which only one brake system works.
Please contact Chery authorized service station as soon as possible.

Brake System Indicator

 4. DRIVING VEHICLE

WARNING
When there is fault in brake system, check the brake fluid level, add brake
fluid when it is lower than MIN line. If reason is unclear, please contact the
Chery authorized service station immediately.

Precautions for brake system

Be sure to read the following precautions when using the brake system:
1. If there is continuous shudder or vibration being transferred to the steering
wheel during braking, please contact Chery authorized service station for
inspection and repair immediately.
2. When driving downhill, shift to a low gear to make full use of engine braking
effect and avoid continuous use of brakes. Failure to do so may cause the 4
brakes to overheat and braking distance will become longer, and the brakes

DRIVING VEHICLE
may even temporarily lose its effectiveness in a serious case.
3. Brake system operating sound may be heart sometimes, which is normal.
But metal-friction or whistling sounds for a long time, brake linings may be
seriously worn. Please contact Chery authorized service station for
replacement immediately.
4. The new brake linings must be break-in to reach optimal brake effect.
Braking effect in the first 200km is not optimal. In this case, depress brake
pedal more firmly to compensate braking effect.
5. A wet brake may cause abnormal vehicle deceleration or pull to one side
when braking. Depress brake pedal slightly to test effectiveness of brakes.
After driving through deep water, keep a safe vehicle speed and depress
brake pedal slightly until braking function is restored.
6. Wear condition of brake lining largely depends on its working conditions and
driving style. For vehicles mainly used in city traffic, frequent starting and
stopping will make working condition of brake lining worsen. Therefore, visit
Chery authorized service station according to specified maintenance
mileage to check thickness of brake linings or replace it as needed.

4-6. Airbag System (SRS)

Airbag System (SRS)
In severe frontal/side collision, when deployment conditions are met, the
airbags deploy and work together with seat belts to protect occupants in
vehicle. Airbags can distribute impact force more evenly to upper parts of
occupants' body, so their body move slowly even stop, thus reducing the risk
of occupants and driver injury.
Airbag Position

OMA13-4130

Driver airbag: When driver airbag is triggered, the airbag cover will be
opened from steering wheel and the airbag deploys.
Front passenger airbag: When front passenger airbag is triggered, the
airbag cover will be opened from instrument panel and the airbag deploys.
Seat side airbag (if equipped): When vehicle is subjected to side collision
and deployment conditions are met, front seat side airbag of impacted side
deploys. Besides seat belt, front seat side airbag is a kind of device that can
provide more protection for driver and front passenger.
Curtain shield airbag (if equipped): When vehicle is subjected to side
collision and deployment conditions are met, curtain shield airbag can
provide head protection for passengers sitting on front seat and rear outside
seat of impacted side, reducing risk of injury.

150
 4. DRIVING VEHICLE
Using Airbag Correctly
In the event of a severe frontal
collision, driver airbag and front
passenger airbag work together with
the seat belt to help reduce injuries to
the head or chest of driver and front
passenger caused by hitting the
interior component (Front passenger
airbag may be activated even if there
is no occupant in front seat).
OMA13-4180

The airbag works together with seat

4
belt to protect safety of driver and
passengers. However, airbag is not a

DRIVING VEHICLE
substitute for seat belt. In addition,
the airbag will deploy only when the
collision degree of vehicle reaches
the design condition. In some
collisions, seat belt is the only
protective device. Wearing a seat
OMA13-4190
belt during a collision can help
reduce the risk of hitting objects
inside the vehicle or being thrown out
of the vehicle, and effectively protect
the occupants and drivers. Therefore
all persons in vehicle should wear
seat belts correctly.
A considerable force will be generated at the moment the airbag inflates, in
order to avoid serious injury or death, never get too close to the airbag, such
as sitting on the edge of the seat or tilting the body forward. Under the premise
of ensuring driving comfort, the driver should sit back as far as the
passengers.
Airbags and seat belts can provide protection for adults and older children but
are not designed to protect infants and young children. Refer to "2-9. Child
Restraint System" for details.

151
4. DRIVING VEHICLE
Airbag Operating Conditions
Operating conditions: In general, in
the event of frontal collision, the
driver airbag and front passenger
airbag will deploy if the deceleration
of vehicle exceeds the designed
threshold level.

OMA13-4200

The driver airbag and front

passenger airbag will deploy if the
severity of the frontal impact is above
the designed threshold level,
comparable to a certain speed
collision when the vehicle impacts
straight into a fixed barrier that does
not move or deform.
The driver airbag and front
passenger airbag may not deploy if
the front of vehicle hits a telegraph
pole slightly, goes under a truck, or
inclined side collision.
▇ Conditions under which airbag may deploy other than a collision
The driver airbag and front
passenger airbag may also deploy if
a serious impact occurs to the
underside of your vehicle.

Precautions for Airbag
After the airbag is deployed, the vehicle automatically unlocks the doors, turns
on interior lights and hazard warning lights; Then airbag will deflate quickly
after deploying. Some parts of the airbag module may generate heat, do not
touch any related parts at this time. The exhaust hole of deflated airbag will
also release some smoke and dust. For people with asthma or other
respiratory problems, respiratory system could be stimulated. Therefore, all
people in vehicle should get off as soon as possible, or open windows to
breathe fresh air and seek medical treatment if necessary.
If the areas where the airbags are stored, such as the steering wheel and
instrument panel are damaged or cracked, please go to the Chery authorized
service station for replacement as soon as possible.
Always keep airbag inflation path
clear. It is forbidden to place anything
(such as mobile phone, etc.)
between the occupant and the
airbag. It is forbidden to fix or place
any object on or near the airbag
cover. If there is an object between
occupant and airbag, the airbag may
not deploy according to design path,
OMA13-4260
or the airbag may push object to
occupant's body, causing serious
injury or even death.

• Although ABS can ensure the best braking effect, braking distance will
vary largely due to road conditions.
• Also, ABS cannot eliminate risks arising from close-following driving,
wading, turning quickly or driving on poor road surfaces and cannot avoid
accidents caused by inattentive or inappropriate driving.
• ABS cannot ensure that brake distance can be shorted in any situations,
vehicle equipped with tire chains, on sand or snow covered roads, may

3. When driving with tire chains.
4. When driving on dirt, gravel or snow-covered roads.

CAUTION
Tire size, specification and tread pattern wear will seriously affect ABS
normal performance. Tire used to replace should have same size, load
capacity and structure as original one. When tire is abnormal, it is
recommended to replace with an original type at Chery authorized service
station.

WARNING
• When driving in rainy day, properly control the vehicle speed, if wheel spins
or slips, ABS will cannot control the vehicle.
• Although ABS can help to control vehicle, make sure to drive carefully,
maintain a moderate speed and keep safe distance from preceding
vehicles. There are certain limitations in vehicle stability and steering

170
 5. DRIVING ASSIST
Extended Function (If Equipped)
Electric Brake Force Distribution System (EBD)
EBD automatically adjusts braking force distribution ratio of front and rear
axles according to axial load transfer difference caused by braking to improve
braking efficiency. In addition, EBD works together with ABS to improve
braking stability. Also, when braking in corner, brake force of inside and
outside wheel can be adjusted to improve braking stability.
Traction Control System (TCS)
During starting off or rapidly acceleration, drive wheels may slip. In case of on
a slippery road such as snowy or icy road, direction could get out of control
and cause dangerous. When TCS detects that driven wheel speed is lower
than drive wheel speed (a kind of wheel slip symptom) using sensor, it sends a
signal to adjust ignition timing, reduce throttle opening, downshift or brake
wheels so that wheel no longer slips.
Hill Hold Control System (HHC) 5
HHC can prevent vehicle from moving backward when starting off on uphill.

DRIVING ASSIST
After vehicle is stationary, HHC determines if the vehicle is on a slope by
longitudinal acceleration sensor. When vehicle starts from stationary state on
a slope to drive or reverse upwards, HHC automatically operates. When
starting off, after driver releases brake pedal, system maintains previous
braking pressure for 1 to 2 seconds to hold the vehicle. As increasing of drive
torque, brake pressure reduces gradually, avoiding accidents caused by
moving backward when starting off on a slope.
Hydraulic Brake Assist System (HBA)
HBA is used to shorten the braking distance in emergency braking. In an
emergency, driver usually brakes in time, but generally does not apply the
maximum braking force, thus lengthening braking distance. In this case, HBA
will operate: When driver depresses brake pedal rapidly in an emergency with
insufficient force, HBA quickly increases brake pressure to maximum level,
making anti-lock brake system shorten braking distance more quickly and
effectively.
Drag Torque Control (DTC)
In normal driving, when releasing accelerator pedal quickly or shifting the shift
lever to lower gear by mistake, vehicle will produce a similar braking effect,
especially on slippery road, the wheel will lock up. At this time, ESP will
request engine to increase torque output, resume rotation of drive wheels,
improving steering stability.
Roll Movement Intervention System (RMI)
RMI is used to prevent vehicle from rolling over on road when operating
vehicle in dynamic (such as lane change) and static (such as loop driving)
status.

Incorrect tire inflation pressure will lead to excessive fuel consumption,

shorten the tire service life and reduce the vehicle stability. Therefore, you
should drive the vehicle with proper tire pressure (For provisions about the tire
inflation pressure, please refer to the tire pressure label on driver side B pillar).
When cold tire inflation pressure is higher than specified value or economic
tire pressure is used, driving comfort will be reduced accordingly. Please
adjust it according to your needs.
▇ Be sure to keep proper tire inflation pressure. Otherwise, the following
conditions may occur and result in an accident, causing death or serious
injury:

• Excessive wear.
• Poor handling.
Low tire High tire Normal
Pressure Pressure • Uneven wear.
Lateral wear Center area wear Even wear • Poor sealing of the tire bead.
• Wheel deformation or tire
separation.
• Possibility of blowouts resulting

• A greater possibility of tire damage
caused by poor road conditions.

202
 7. MAINTENANCE
Tire Rotation
To equalize tire wear and extend tire
service life, Chery recommends that
you should rotate your tires
approximately every 10,000 km (best
adjustment range is 5,000 - 7,000
Front km); the tire rotation cycle may vary
according to your driving habits and
road surface conditions.
OMA13-7090

Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may lead to an accident,

resulting in death or serious injury:
1. Do not use tires that were used on another vehicle.
2. Do not mix tires with remarkably different tread wear.
3. Do not use tires if you do not know how they were used previously.
4. Do not mix tires with different manufacturers, models or tread patterns.
5. Do not mix differently constructed tires (such as radial, bias-belted or bias-
ply tires).

 7. MAINTENANCE
Maintaining wiper blades
1. Do not use high-pressure water jet to directly wash the wiper blades while
washing the vehicle, or the wiper blades could be deformed.
2. In order to prevent the formation of schlieren, it is recommended to clean
wiper blades using glass detergent regularly once a week.
3. After washing the vehicle in the automatic car washer, apply pure water to
rinse the windshield and blades, to remove the remaining wax layer.
4. For safety, it is advised to replace the wiper blades once or twice a year, the
wiper blades can be purchased at Chery authorized service station.
5. Do not operate wipers when windshield is dry. Doing so may scratch glass,
resulting in permanent damage to wiper blades.
6. Do not clean the windshield with fuel, nail polish remover, paint thinner or
similar liquid, which can damage the wiper blades.
7. When the windshield surface is frosted or frozen, or when dry soil, insect,
sticker or other solid particles are attached to the windshield surface, clean
them with a wet cloth in time. Do not use a dry cloth or remove them with
wiper blades directly, otherwise it will damage the glass and wiper blades.
Using wipers
1. Do not swing the wiper arm manually, otherwise it may damage the wiper.
2. When there is snow, leaves, branch and other objects, they should be
cleaned before operating the wiper.
7
3. Washer fluid should be added on time, please use the windshield washer
fluid as specified in this manual, and do not use tap water instead.

MAINTENANCE
4. In cold weather, always check if the wiper blades are frozen on the
windshield before using. If they are frozen on the windshield, always
unfreeze before using. Failure to do so may cause damage to the wiper
motor and wiper blades.
5. Unfreezing method: Use air conditioning heating and ventilation device to
warm up. Do not pour hot water directly to blades, otherwise, windshield
may break or wiper blades may deform.
