After the vehicle starting, gear shifting should be made step by step and timely. The clutch pedal should not be
released abruptly to impulse the starting when the vehicle is stuck in the mud or can not start on a spoil road.

①
If abnormal noise or odor occurs, please stop vehicle to check.
②
Abrupt acceleration or emergency braking should be avoided as might.
③ Don't put foot on the clutch pedal during the driving.

Avoid engine overspeed. When driving long downhill, engine may overspeed easily after gearshift, at
this time, pay attention to apply exhaust brake or retarder and service brake to ensure engine run at
specified speed.
⑤
During driving downhill, never stop engine, otherwise, resulting in low pressure in brake pipeline
and power steering gear failure.
During normal running condition, the pointer of water temperature gauge should be under the red sign that
indicated the vehicle is on normal condition, if the pointer is on “H” indicate it is abnormal.
