Handbrake
Pull up the handbrake handle after parking
so as to avoid the humping due to
temporary carelessness. The hand brake
handle is located at the middle of the front
row of seats.
The brake lamp will light when applied
with handbrake under the condition that
the ignition switch is turned on.
Pull up the handbrake lever when using
handbrake.
When releasing the handbrake, pull up the
handbrake lever slightly, push down the
release button at the end of the handle and
push downward.
The handbrake is applied on the rear
wheels. It can step down the brake pedal at
the same time the handbrake is pulled up
so that it can pull up the handbrake much
easier.
Shift
Use/Operation M ethod and Notices:
•
During gearshift, fully step down the
clutch pedal and release the driver
from the engine torque and then
operate the gearshift lever for gearshift
rapidly.
•
The low speed gear should be used for
downward slopes and turns. The slide
with disengaged clutch is not allowed.
•
When shifting the transmission from
low gear to high gear, do not conduct
gear skip operation; otherwise the
service life of the synchronizer will be
affected.
•
The forced gearshift by means of
synchronizer to start the engine under
neutral gear and engine stall status is
strictly prohibited; otherwise the
service life of the synchronizer will be
affected.
•
The flap method (namely the operation
method of one pulling and one
releasing) is strictly prohibited during
gearshift. Please always hold the
transmission lever with hand so as to
greatly reduce the slide and friction
time and the worn-out of the
synchronizer lock ring.
•
Do not leave your hand on the gear
selector lever during driving;
otherwise it will result in the early
worn-out of the gearshift fork.
•
In case of the detection of any
abnormal evidences such as abnormal
noise of the transmission or the
obvious heavier operation during use,
please stop the vehicle for inspection
immediately and continue the driving
once the trouble is resolved.
