Driving
23
The vehicles with gasoline engine are
equipped with narrow refill opening that
only accommodates the unleaded gasoline
pump refuelling gun nozzle.
During the running of the
gasoline engine, it’s
absolutely not allowable to
pull out the spark wire of the ignition
coil. Check if the engine functions
normally by means of cylinder stall
method or observe the jump spark
condition of the spark plug; otherwise
the three-way catalytic converter will
be damaged.
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 Converte r
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:
•
Run out of fuel.
•
Unnecessary long period start of the
engine.
•
Run the engine under the condition
that one spark plug cable terminal is
removed.
•
Start the vehicle with the engine still at
working temperature by means of
pulling or hauling.
•
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.
