Driving

In gearshift, step on brake pedal to the
bottom, move shift lever into desired
gear, and exert more force to send shift
lever into that gear. In case of
inflexible gear engagement, step on
brake pedal again and quickly move
gear lever into place after releasing
transmission from engine torsion.

Shift to low speed gear when driving
down
slope; sliding of a car
declutched should be avoided.

When shifting transmission from a low
gear to a high gear, trip-stop operation
should be prohibited lest service life of
synchronizer is undermined.

In neutral engine shutdown, engine
startup through forceful engagement
with synchronizer is strictly prohibited;
otherwise, service life of synchronizer
is undermined.

Drastic pulling and pushing
movements are strictly prohibited in
gearshift; constantly press on the gear
lever so that the period for lock loop
of synchronizer will be greatly
reduced
 Don’t continuously hold the gearshift
lever with your hand when gear
engagement
and gearshift are
completed so as to prevent transfer of
excessive force from hand to gearshift
fork; otherwise, premature wearing of
gearshift fork might occur.

In case of such abnormal phenomena
in driving as abnormal noise detected
in
transmission and obvious
unwieldiness in operation,
immediately stop and check your car;
and continue your driving when all
faults are cleared.
 In normal driving status, please don’t
keep your feet on clutch pedal to avoid
unnecessary wearing of clutch.

Move the gear lever to reverse gear
only when car stands still. When
engine is running, step on the clutch to
the bottom before gearshift, and shift
in a gear after several minutes, so as to
prevent quacking noise produced by
unfavorable transmission engagement.
When reverse gear is enabled, rear
reversing light will blink after ignition
switch is turned on.
Wading
When inevitably encountering water in
driving, drive carefully and slowly
especially
when facing undefined
situation.
When wading through water, both car
tractive force and braking performance are
reduced, and risk of engine shutdown is
possible.
When water permeates into engine air inlet
pipe, the engine can be seriously damaged.
When wading through deep water, water
seeps through transmission vent-hole into
transmission gear to cause damages to the
transmission.
When water submerges rim,
Don‟t drive forward.
Reverse gear is strictly
prohibited in driving;
otherwise, transmission may
be damaged. Such faults are not
warranted by Chery Automobile.
