Notice:
The three-way catalytic converter will be
getting very hot if the engine is under
continuous running, therefore, notice to
wear the protective glove during repair so
as to avoid the scalding.
Drive the Vehicle Equipped
with a Catalytic Converter
In case of the evidence of
poor engine ignition or the
lowered performance
during driving, please drive at low
speed to the nearest Chery
authorized service station. Do not
drive at large accelerator.
Please avoid the condition that will result
in the ingress of the un-combusted or
partial un-combusted fuels into the
catalytic converter, especially when the
engine is at high temperature.
The following conditions should
be avoided:
y Run out of fuel.
y Unnecessary long period start of the
engine.
y Run the engine under the condition
that one spark plug cable terminal is
removed.
y Start the vehicle with the engine still
at working temperature by means of
pulling or hauling.
y Turn off the ignition switch during
driving.
Parking
Do not park, idle or drive the vehicle on
the dry leaves or grass. Even the engine is
turned off, the exhaust within short period
will continue the radiation of equivalent
heat, and therefore, it still has potential
fire danger.
Make sure to turn off the ignition switch
before leaving the vehicle. Do not run the
engine when no one is in the vehicle. The
negligence of this point may result in the
accident movement of the vehicle, which
will result in the body injury or property
damage.
Chassis Protection
Your vehicle is equipped with heat
insulation plate. Do not apply the paint on
the body of heat insulation plate, exhaust
pipe or catalytic converter or the
surrounding areas. Do not disassemble the
heat insulation plate.

influenced by the following
factors:
Selection of Vehicle Speed or Gear
The above figure illustrates
how the fuel consumption is
influenced by the selection of
vehicle speed and gear. Maintaining at
low gear to improve the acceleration
performance will result in the obvious
higher fuel consumption.
