4. Usage and Maintenance
4.7 Wheels
Warning
You cannot get the best adhesion from a
new tire during the first 500 km, so drive
your vehicle at a moderate speed with care
to avoid accidents.
●
The tire which has not been run in or
has been overworn provides
insufficient adhesion, directly affecting
the braking effect.
●
If the vehicle vibrates abnormally or
departures, stop the vehicle at a safe
place immediately and check the tires
for damage.
●
If uneven excessive wear of the tires is
found, go to GAC MOTOR dealer for
inspection as soon as possible.
Warning
Tire burst or air leakage during traveling can
cause serious traffic accidents.
●
Do not drive with damaged tires or
wheels or tires worn to the wear mark
of tread pattern. Otherwise, it may
cause accidents. Because the
damaged tires may explode during
traveling and cause traffic accidents
and injure persons, replace such tires
and wheels timely.
●
Tire pressure must comply with
specifications. Otherwise it may cause
accidents. If the tire pressure is
insufficient, constant high-speed
driving will cause tire deflection,
resulting in tire overheating which may
lead to tire shelling or burst.
●
Always prevent the tires from touching
chemicals, oil, grease, fuel and brake
fluid.
Warning
●
Try to avoid using a tire more than six
years old. If no other choice, be sure to
drive at a low speed with extra care.
●
Do not use any old wheels and tires
with dubious background under any
circumstances. Such wheels and tires
which may be already damaged
invisibly will cause the vehicle out of
control while driving, resulting in
accidents.
