the engine torque.
Apply a slow speed gear when
running downhill and turning;
sliding with the clutch
disengaged is not allowable.
When shifting the transmission
from a lower gear to a higher gear,
do not step over gear; otherwise,
the synchronizer’s service life
may be affected.
Utilizing the synchronizer to
forcibly shift gear to start the
engine under NEUTRAL and
flameout state is forbidden;
otherwise, the synchronizer’s
service life may be affected.
When shifting gear, the flapping
method (i.e. one push and one
release) is forbidden and you
should keep pressing the gearshift
lever, thus greatly reducing
sliding and rubbing time of the
synchronizer’s lock ring and
reducing friction.
Do not put your hand on the
gearshift lever when driving;
otherwise, it will cause excessive
wear of the shift fork.
Immediately stop the car to
inspect when abnormal sound in
transmission is heard and such
abnormal phenomena as obvious
resistance during operation etc.
are found. Continue to drive only
after the failure is removed.
Steering
In order to avoid damage to the power
steering system:
When the engine is running, do
not turn the steering wheel to its
extreme position (turn to its left
or right dead point) for more than
10 seconds.
Refill power steering fluid at once
when its liquid level is blow MIN
mark in its reservoir. Do not drive
the car before refilling.
In case of failure in the power steering
system or engine shutting down, the car
will lose the steering booster force.
Then, you still can turn the steering
wheel, but a larger force is required.
Check the following items if the car
wanders or swings:
If any tire is under-inflation
