Inspections after starting/during driving
-
Check whether the instrument cluster
works properly; check whether any
indicator lamp comes on or any alarm
message is shown, etc.
-
Check whether all controls (such as the
lamplight combination, wiper combination
and defrost switches) work properly.
-
Check that the vehicle does not deviates
to one side during braking on a road
without safety risks.
-
Check for other anomalies, such as part
looseness, leakage and unusual noise.
5.7.2 Driving during running-in
period
In order to prolong the service life of the
vehicle, the vehicle shall be subject to running-
in of certain mileage before it is brought into
use. Please comply with the following rules in
the running-in period:
-
The mileage in the running-in period shall
be 1500km.
-
Choose roads in good condition and drive
it at reduced load and limited speed.
-
Do not start the engine with full throttle or
drive with harsh acceleration.
-
Avoid emergency braking in first 300 km.
-
Strictly follow the operating procedures
and make sure that the engine has
reached normal operating temperature.
Do not change the oil before regular
maintenance.
-
Carry out daily maintenance of the vehicle
carefully; check and tighten the external
bolts and nuts frequently; check the
sound and temperature changes of the
assemblies generated by operation and
adjust them timely.
Engine running-in
The mileage in the running-in period of a
new engine shall be 1500km. Within the first
1000km of driving:
-
Keep the vehicle speed no more than 3/4
of the maximum allowable speed.
-
Do not drive the vehicle with full throttle.
-
Avoid running the engine at high speed.
-
Do not tow any trailer.
Within 1000km-1500km, it is allowed to
increase the engine & vehicle speeds gradually
to the maximum allowable range.
The internal frictional resistance of the engine
at the beginning of running-in is much greater
than that after running-in, and all the moving
parts of the engine can have the best fitting
after running-in.
After fully running in, both the service life
and the fuel efficiency of the engine can be
improved.
