JAC J5, Owner'S Manual

Page: 64 / 166

Do not keep the engine running for a
long time under the parking mode.
Drive your car as soon as possible.
Avoid a high rotational speed or
sudden acceleration before the engine
temperature reaches its rated value.
For car models equipped with a
catalytic converter, it's disallowed to
start the engine by towing the vehicle
for more than 50m in distance. Or, the
fuel not fully burned may enter into the
catalyticconverteranddamageit.
Before starting the engine with towing
method, you need to use batteries of
other vehicles to help you start the
engine as much as possible. See the
Page 135 "Emergency Start" of this
manual for details.
Never keep the engine running in
an enclosed room or poorly vent
-ilated space. The odorless carbon
monoxide exhausted by your car
may cause toxic accidents or ever
death.
When the engine is turned off, the
radiator fan may remain rotating for
a period of time (even after the
ignition switch is turned off). The
rotation may last for up to 10
minutes.
Engine start
Notices before starting the engine
For the vehicle equipped with manual
transmission, the gearshift lever shall
be shifted to the neutral position
before starting the engine.
For the vehicle equipped with manual
transmission, it is recommended that
you apply the clutch pedal when
starting the engine.
After the engine is started, you need to
release the ignition key to let the
ignition switch return from the START
to the ON position. Never keep the
engine
and the starter running
simultaneously.
When in a cold environment, the
engine started will produce a strong
operation noise for a short time. That is
because it is necessary to build a fuel
pressure during the adjustment of
hydraulic valve clearance. In such case,
producing the above noise is normal.
