Chery A15. Manual — part 1

WARNING

Servicing a vehicle can be dangerous. If you have not received service-related
training, the risks of injury, property damage, and failure of servicing
increase. The recommended servicing procedures for the vehicle in this
service manual were developed with Chery-trained technicians in mind. This
manual may be useful to non-Chery trained technicians, but a technician
with our service-related training and experience will be at less risk when
performing service operations. However, all users of this manual are
expected to at least know general safety procedures.

This manual contains “Warnings” and “Cautions” applicable to risks not
normally encountered in a general technician’s experience. They should be
followed to reduce the risk of injury and the risk that improper service or
repair may damage the vehicle or render it unsafe. It is also important to
understand that the “Warnings” and “Cautions” are not exhaustive. It is
impossible to warn of all the hazardous consequences that might result from
failure to follow the procedures.

The procedures recommended and described in this manual are effective
methods of performing service and repair. Some require tools specifically
designed for a specific purpose. Persons using procedures and tools which
are not recommended by Chery Company must satisfy themselves
thoroughly that neither personal safety nor safety of the vehicle will be
jeopardized.

The contents of this manual, including drawings and specifications, are the
latest available at the time of printing, and Chery Company reserves the
right to change the vehicle designs and alter the contents of this manual
without notice and without incurring obligation.

Parts should be replaced with genuine Chery replacement parts. Persons
using replacement parts of lesser quality than that of genuine Chery
replacement parts must take all the consequences.

Chery Company is not responsible for any problems which may arise from
the use of this manual. The cause of such problems includes but is not limited
to insufficient service-related training, use of improper tools, use of
replacement parts of lesser quality than that of genuine Chery replacement
parts, or not being aware of any revision of this manual.
