Direct Injection (DI) Type Diesel Engine
Compared to Indirect Injection (IDI) Type Diesel Engine that
uses a mechanical fuel injection system, a Direct Injection (DI)
Type Diesel Engine controls the amount of injected fuel and
the fuel injection timing electronically. This advanced engine
enhances the output power and reduces the noxious exhaust
gas (CO, HC, NOx....). Because the Direct Injection Diesel En-
gine is operated by high pressure (1,600 bars), any removal,
modification or service of the engine may contaminate the in-
side of the system and cause the system to malfunction. In
that case, the malfunction and any related systems are not
under warranty of this company.
Warning for Using Low Quality Fuel
The fuel system in a DI engine equipped vehicle has many
precisely machined components. Using low quality fuel could
result in serious damage to the engine due to the water or
impurities in the fuel.
Never use the low quality fuel.
System Safety Mode
When the vehicle has a system error, the vehicle operates in
safety mode to maintain minimum driving conditions and to
prevent the system from being damaged. In this mode, the
engine driving force may be decreased or the engine may stall.
When this happens, have the system checked at a Ssangyong
Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service Center.

CAUTIONS FOR DIRECT INJECTION TYPE DIESEL ENGINE (I)
Supplementary Heating Device
- FFH (Fuel Fired Heater)
This supplementary heater is a fuel burning type and
improves the heating effect by increasing the engine
coolant temperature.
- PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient)
This supplementary heater is an electrical air heat-
ing type and installed on the heater outlet port. This
device improves the heating effect by increasing the
temperature of flowing air into the passenger room.
FFH Operation
The FFH system operates up to more than 2 minutes
to burn the residual fuel inside the system when stop-
ping the engine during its operation.
Therefore, a certain period of FFH operation after stop-
ping the engine is not a malfunction.
In an initial operating stage, the fuel pump generates
the operating sound and the FFH heater produces
white smoke. These are normal states to fill the fuel
into the FFH fuel line.
