In order to avoid the damage of power
steering system:
•
The time when rotating the steering
wheel to the end (to left dead point
and right dead point) should not
exceed 10s during engine running.
•
When the power steering liquid in the
power steering liquid reservoir is
lower than “M IN” mark, please refill
with power steering liquid
immediately. Do not drive the vehicle
before refill.
In case of trouble of power steering
system or the engine stall, the vehicle will
lose the steering boosting. You still can
rotate the steering wheel with great
strength.
In case of vehicle deflection or tremble
during the driving, please check the
following items:
•
Whether the tire pressure is
insufficient.
•
Whether the tire is worn evenly.
•
Whether the suspension components
are loosened or worn out.
•
Whether the steering components are
loosened or worn out.
•
Whether the wheel alignment is
correct.
Paddling
If it’s must to paddle during journey, make
sure to drive slowly and carefully,
especially when having no knowledge of
the water conditions. Do not drive forward
further if the water can submerge the
wheel hub.
During paddling, the traction force and the
brake performance of the vehicle will be
lowered and the vehicle will have the
danger of stall.
In case of the water ingress into the intake
pipe of the engine, it will cause the serious
damage of the engine. The deeper
paddling will result in the water ingress
into the transmission through the
transmission air vent, which will result in
the damage of the transmission.
After paddling, make sure to drive slowly
and step down the brake pedal slightly for
several times to remove the water from the
brake. The water on the brake will lower
the brake performance.

the pollution of exhaust gas.
M ake sure to use unleaded
fuel. The leaded fuel will
result in the permanent
damage of the catalytic converter and
the oxygen sensor. Chery Automobile
