Engine oil dipstick
Engine oil consumption is influenced by
many factors. A new engine reaches the
normal operating specification after
driving approx. 5000 Km. More engine oil
might be cost when the engine operates
with high load.
Check the engine oil timely e.g. adding
fuel or before a long-distance travel.
Park the vehicle on a level surface before
check the engine oil. Switch off the
ignition and wait for a few seconds, which
let the oil flows into the oil pan (It may
need more time when outside temperature
is low or engine temperature does not
reach the normal operating temperature)
.
Do not start the cold start before check the
oil. Pull the dipstick out and clean it with
lint-free cloth. Push it carefully into the
guide tube and pull it out again.
When the level is between the two marks
on the dipstick, do not add oil. Hot oil may
exceed the upper mark for sever
centimeters due to hot inflation.
When the level is at the lower mark or
below, ONLY add oil according to Chery
specifications. Approx 1 liter of oil raises
the dipstick to the upper mark from the
lower one. Add oil only to the upper mark.
Please see “ Capacity and
specification”for detailed informations.
Engine oil filler cap
Rotate (arrows) and pull the cap. Do not
pull the cap when engine is operating.
Do not use any oil additives.
They are not necessary and will lead
damage to the engine in some cases.
Those damages are not within the
guarantee range.
Rotate the cap till you hear the sound of
“kala”. It is closed.

when the engine is hot.
The level can be seen by the look-through
container. When the engine is cooling
down, the level should between the marks
of MIN and MAX. When the engine is hot,
the fluid level may exceed the MAX due
to inflation.

for 10 minutes to let the engine cool. Turn
the cap ¼ first to allow the accumulated
pressure escape. Then open it after another
period of time. Add the mixture of 50%
water and 50% coolant.

Engine coolant
Avoid the fluid coming into

and consult a physician immediately.
Coolant with consistency cannot only keep
the engine not freezing, but also corrosion
inhibitor. The modern engine operates
with high temperature. The unqualified
coolant cannot keep engine away from
corrosion.
Therefore, using coolant qualified with
Chery’s specification. Please see“Capacity
and specification” for details.
Please do not mix coolants
of different colors and
specifications.
