Dual-Circuit Brake System
Your vehicle is equipped with “X”
dual-circuit brake system. The other
circuit will still keep effective op eration
even if one circuit has fault.
In case of the failure of one
brake circuit, it will needs
more force to step down the
brake pedal and the stop distance will
be lengthened. In case of the
occurrence of such condition, please
deliver your vehicle to the Chery
authorized service station for
overhauling before you continue your
journey.

Please refill with brake
liquid immediately to
maintain the liquid level
between M AX and M IN marking and
deliver your vehicle to the Chery

It’s quite normal if the brake system issues
noise occasionally. The long period

authorized service station for overhauling.

transmitted to the steering wheel during
braking, please deliver your vehicle to
Chery authorized service station for

The new brake lining can achieve best
brake effects only after run in. The brake
effects may be slightly lowered within the
initial 200km. Under such condition, the
brake effects can be compensated by
enhancing the proper force on the pedal.
This essential point also app lies to the new
brake lining after replacement.
The worn-out status of the brake lining
depends on the working condition and
driving method to large extent. For the
vehicles mainly for city transportation, the
working condition of the brake lining is
relatively poor due to the frequent start
and stop. Therefore, make sure to deliver
your vehicle to the Chery authorized
service station for the checking of brake
lining thickness or the replacement of
brake lining in accordance with the
maintenance mileage specified in the
M aintenance.
For downward slope driving, it should
