Chery International Seat and Safety Protection

Drive a vehicle equipped
with the catalytic converter

If there is poor ignition
of engine or its

performance reduction occurs,
please drive your vehicle at the
low-speed to the nearest Chery
Authorized Service Station, and
do not drive it at the heavy
throttle.

Please avoid all cases that may make
the fuel non-combusted or partially
combusted enter into the catalytic
converter, especially when the engine
is in the state of overheat.

The followings shall be
avoided:



Fuel is used out.



The engine starts for an
unnecessary long time.



To make the engine operate
under the status of one ignition
plug’s cable joint removed



To start the vehicle which its
engine is still in the working
temperature by pushing or
dragging the vehicle.



To turn off the ignition switch

during driving.

Parking

Please do not park, idle or drive your

vehicle on the dry leaves or hays. The
vehicle has the potential fire danger
because the exhaust will continuously
emit quite a few heats within a short
time even though the engine has
already been turned off.

Do not substitute the hand brake with
the gear shifting level during parking.
The hand brake must be pulled up and
the gear shifting level shall be placed

Chery International Seat and Safety Protection

to the P position.

The ignition switch must be turned off
before you leave your vehicle. DO
NOT make the engine operate if there
is no one in the vehicle. Your vehicle
may move unexpectedly and make
person(s) injured or property damaged
if you neglect this highlight above.

Chassis protection

Your vehicle is equipped with a heat
shield. Please do not apply coating on
the heat shield, exhaust pipe or
catalytic converter body or their
surrounding areas. Please do not
remove the heat shield.

Fuel consumption

The fuel consumption is
influenced by the following
factors:

Speed and gear selection

The figure above shows how
the fuel consumption is

influenced by the speed and gear
selection. Hold it on the lower gear to
improve the acceleration quality which

may cause the evidently over-high fuel
consumption.

Journey

distance/engine

temperature

The frequent cold starting and short-
distance driving can make the fuel
consumption increase obviously.

Traffic and road condition

The traffic jam, upslope, multi-curve
road and rough pavement make the
adverse impact on the fuel
consumption.

Better driving habits

Foresee the dangerous situation and
keep the safety driving distance to the
vehicle ahead. It can not only reduce

the fuel consumption, but also
decrease the wearing and noises of
the brake.

It is recommended to turn off
the engine during the level

crossing jam or when you wait for the
Red Light for a long time.

The engine idling for 3 minutes is
equivalent to the vehicle driving 1 km.

Vehicle loaded conditions

To increase the load of a vehicle can
result the higher fuel consumption.

Vehicle technical conditions

The over-low tire pressure or improper
engine and vehicle maintenance can
also result the higher fuel

consumption.

Essentials

on

saving fuel for

driving and protecting
environment:



Save fuel for driving, and utilize
the additional electrical load only
when it is necessary.



Need not to warm up firstly and
you can start the vehicle.



Step on the gas pedal smoothly.



Shift to the next higher gear
position quickly to get the lower
engine speed.



Foresee the traffic condition.



Switch off the air conditioning and

rear

windscreen heating

immediately if not necessary.



Regularly check/adjust the tire
pressure.



Regularly conduct the vehicle
maintenance, which it is the best
to be implemented by the Chery
Authorized Service Station.

Radiator fan

The radiator fan is an electric fan, the
working condition of which is
controlled by the ECU of engine. This
switch will turn on the circuit of fan
automatically when the temperature of
coolant or engine compartment is up
to a specified value.

Chery International Seat and Safety Protection

After stopping your
vehicle and turning off

the engine, the radiator fan will
still operate continuously for a
period of time (approx. 10
minutes) because the engine is
still in the hot state, and stop
operating only after the engine is
cooled

to a specified

temperature. If even so, the fan
may also start up suddenly as
long as the temperature of
engine compartment rises
fiercely under the influence of
the external ambient temperature
(with exposure to the direct
radiation of sunshine or in the
high temperature region). Thus,
take care to

avoid

the

occurrence of accident when
you work in the engine
compartment!

Description:

If the temperature of coolant has
already reached the temperature of
the fan starting but the fan doesn’t
operate, you shall check that the fuse
of fan is blown out. Replace the fuse, if
necessary.

The fan speed is independent of the
engine speed. Shifting to the lower
gear can’t improve the cooling effect of
fan. So, it is unnecessary to shift to the
lower gear as long as the engine
operates smoothly and the speed
doesn’t decrease evidently when slope

climbing.
