CAUTIONS
There are a number of mechanical devices in the engine compartment that may suddenly turn, become hot, or
start being energized. To avoid serious personal injury, please be aware of the following.
■
Operation on engine compartment parts
When working under the engine compartment cover, be sure to remove all your jewellery (especially ring,
bracelet, watch and necklace) and bow tie, scarf and the similar loose clothing before you approach the engine
or the electric fan that may operate at any time if the engine has to be run.
Be careful not to touch the engine, radiator, exhaust manifold, etc. immediately after driving, as it may be
hot. The engine oil and other fluids are also hot.
Always turn off the engine before opening the hood. Apply the electronic parking brake, shift the gear
position in the P gear, turn off the engine switch and carry the key with you, and then wait for the engine to
cool.
Keep hands, clothes and tools away from rotating fans and engine drive belts.
Never leave anything in the engine compartment.
If the inspection or maintenance in the engine compartment finishes, do not leave any tools, cloth, or other
items in it. Doing so may cause damage to the engine or catch fire, resulting in accidents.
Do not smoke and cause sparks, or expose naked flames close the fuel or batteries.
Care must be taken when handling batteries. The battery contains toxic and corrosive sulfuric acid.
Care must be taken when handling brake fluid, as it may hurt your hands or eyes and damage the paint
finish. If you get the brake fluid on your hands or in your eyes, flush your eyes or skin with large quantities of
clean water. If you still feel unwell after that, call a physician immediately.
■
When close to electric fan or radiator grill
Make sure the engine switch is in OFF position.
When the vehicle starts, if the air conditioner is turned on or the coolant temperature is high, the electrical
cooling fan may run automatically
■
Safety goggles
Wear goggles to prevent objects or splashing liquid from flying in eyes.
Caution
■
If the air filter has been removed
If the vehicle is driven after the air filter is removed, the dirt in the air may cause excessive abrasion to the
engine. Meanwhile, back fire may also cause the engine compartment to catch fire.
■
If the brake fluid level is too low or too high
When the brake pads are worn or the fluid level in the brake fluid tank is high, the brake fluid level drops
slightly. This is normal. If brake fluid needs to be frequently added to the brake fluid tank, it indicates that
there may be a serious problem. Please contact your FAW authorized Hongqi Dealer to have your vehicle
checked.
