from the original one can lead to the
damage of electric system, or even fire.
Only the fuses with the same
specification can be used
Fuse box
There are two fuse boxes in the car, One
is set below the steering wheel on the left

side of the instrument panel, the other is

notice of ventilation. Illuminate bulb after
it has been fixed on the lamp holder;
don't touch bulb in illuminating.5 if
fissure or damage appears , replace the

bulb.6 keep children away from the
bulb.7carefully handle with used bulb 8
moisture on hands will reduce bulb life .

External maintenance and
cleaning of automobile

External lacquered surface
Lacquering brings esthetic app earance
and viability to automobile.
The best way of lacquered surface
maintenance is to clean frequently to
keep lacquered p arts neat, use tepid water
or cold water for washing rather than hot
water or under the direct irradiation of
sunshine, soap or chemical cleaners with
high concentration are not permitted to
use, all the cleaning agents have to be
instantly flushed away from the surface,
none of which could remain on surface.
The Chery automobile, designated for
normal environment conditions, can
endure the influence of normal natural
environment, whereas in abnormal
conditions like high-pressure car flushing
circumstance the water will go into the
inner part of car.
Burnishing and waxing of car body
Regular burnishing and waxing of car
body are suggested to remove sediments

on the surface. Chery Service Station
provides relevant qualified products.
Regular water cleaning should be kept to
protect the glossiness of external metal
components. Special care should be taken
to protect plumbiferous luster.
In order to avoid plumbiferous luster
spoilage, inscriptive grinding materials,
water vapour or corrosive soap are not
permitted for cleaning, all the bright
metal components are suggested to daub
paraffin. Leaden wheels and wheel disks
have to be washed to keep tidy and avoid
contact with road dust or saliferous
objects, the original status of wheels and
wheel disks should be protected and
regular cleaning is suggested, corrosive
cleaning agents or brushes are not
permitted to use to avoid surface coating
spoilage



Anticorrosion
Your automobile is designated according
to the requirement of anticorrosion; most
components of vehicles have applied

special substances and protective coating
to keep nice appearance, strength and
reliable operation. Some parts (such as
the special components located in the
engine room and chassis) are unexposed
to the air, thus the rusty stain will not
influence their reliabilities, and measures
of anticorrosion are unnecessary to take
on t hese parts.
Latten spoilage
If your vehicle is damaged, repair and
replacing of body panels need to be done,
suitable anticorrosive materials should be
guaranteed on the repaired or replaced
parts of fixed automobile body to resume
anticorrosion.
Impurity sediment
If impurities such as Calcium chloride
and other salts, ice flux, pavement tar,
resin,

ordure of birds, chemicals from

industry and others remain on the
lacquering surface, the surface coating
would be damaged.

These sediments may not be flushed
away completely by quick washing,

therefore cleaning agents are required.
Damages to lacquering surfaces must be

avoided when using chemical cleaning
agents.

Automobile maintenance

128

Surface coating spoilage
Any fissures or deep scratches on the
surface coating should be immediately
patched, or the exposed metal will
instantly get stained, if this continues
more repair fees may be spent. Scratches
could be patched with patching materials;
extensive coating damages have to be
patched in Chery Service Station.
Chassis maintenance
Corrodent materials and dust will build
up in the chassis, more of which will
app ear in the chassis components like
transport pipelines, car frame, soleplate
and the air exhaust system without
cleaning, these objects should be flushed
away from chassis at least every spring,
especially those areas where mud and
other impurities may accumulate should
be cleaned, please go to Chery Service
Station to make the maintenance when
necessary.

！Attention
Damages caused by impurity sediment or
the range of warranty of quality does not
cover stone blocks.

Fuel and its addition

Fuel oil
Normal gasoline: the value of octane is
not less than 93 ＃ (GB17930 － 1999
unleaded motor gasoline).
Fuel oil additives
Vehicle driving performance, engine
performance and service life are directly
influenced by the quality of fuel oil,
whereas the additives could improve the
performances above, therefore, our
company suggests you adopt fuel oil with
additives in high quality. If this could not
be done temporarily, or when

malfunctions such as starting difficulty,
unstable idling or power coastdown in
engine appear, adequate additives should
be added in fuel oil addition. The Fuel oil
additives play the part of engine
anticorrosion and fouling, oil supply
system cleaning, moreover, they can
prevent throttle body from icing under the
temperature between 0-15℃.
Fuel oil additives approved by our
company are supplied in Chery Service
Station, working staff in the station is
expert at method of application and the
processing method of engine fouling, and
they are ready to help you.
Engine oil
Special top engine oil has filled before
automobile leaves. Except for regions in
particular and cold climate, it can b e used
as all-purpose oil all year round.

Because the mobile oil in high quality is
the prerequisite of ensuring engine
trouble free running and durability
prolonging, the special used top mobile
oil specified by Chery have to apply in
mobile oil addition or replacing
circumstances.
In respect that there are varieties of
mobile oil served in the market, and the
qualities of which vary a lot, it is
emphasized that the mobile oil can only
be chosen from the ones provided by this
specification. The tag numbers of mobile
oil illustrated in this page can also be
found from the vessel label. These oils
will mix naturally in oil sup plement.

Viscosity and classification descriptions
The viscosity levels must be chosen
pursuant to the range shown in the graphs.
It is unnecessary to replace the engine oil
if the temperature exceeds the provided
range only in short time.
A-multirange mobile oil

-multirange mob ile oil in high qu ality,

with tag number API－SFI
B-Improved lubricating mobile oil

-Efficient engine oil,

C-Single range mobile oil in high quality,
with tag number APL－SFI

Engine oil additives
Other items should not be added to mix

with the engine oil.
The service range does not cover
damages caused by mobile oil additives
addition.
Important descriptions:
It goes without saying that the
exploration and update of engine oil is
continuous, and the parameters illustrated
in this specification are only fit for the
publishing conditions.
Our company guarantees that we are
ready to inform the latest technical
information to Chery Service Station at
any time, therefore, the replacement of
mobile oil proceeded by Chery Service
Station will be best.
