Putting Away Things That Interfere With Driving
Using Engine Brakes On Long Downgrades
If you repeatedly apply the brake pedal, the brakes overheat
and the braking effectiveness can deteriorate. When on a
long downgrade, shift to a low gear and apply your brake
pedal together with the engine brake.
Always Putting Out Cigarettes
• Make sure you have put out all cigarettes and matches
completely before throwing them into your ashtray.
• Do not put many cigarette butts or materials that easily
catch fire into your ashtray.
Being Careful With Accessories
Do not attach accessories or other unnecessary things to
your car’s windows as they might interfere with your driving.
Attached accessories can work as a convex lens and cause
a fire or cause an accident.
Being Careful While Checking Your Coolant
When the engine is hot, never open the cap of the coolant
tank.
Hot steam or liquid might surge upwards and cause burns
to your face or body.
Always Using Ssangyong Genuine Parts
• You can maintain the safety and performance of your car
by using only specified parts or Ssangyong genuine parts.
• You can distinguish specified parts by their part numbers
and seal.
The engine brake slows down your vehicle while the accelerator
pedal is not applied; down-shifting increases the effectiveness of
this retarding force.
NOTE
• The warranty does not cover problems caused by using non-
Ssangyong genuine parts.
• You can distinguish an authentic Ssangyong genuine part by its
hologram.
CAUTION
For safer driving, refrain from smoking while on the road.
CAUTION
• Do not leave inflammable materials, such as disposable lighters
or sprays, inside the vehicle. They might cause a fire or an explosion.
• Do not place objects under the driver’s feet or cover the car
bottom with a very thick carpet as it might interfere with apply-
ing your brake, clutch or accelerator pedals.
