126Chapter 7 WheelSection 1 Tire InspectionInspection1. Check the tires for appearance and proper inflation pressure.
Check for inflation pressure after the vehicle stops for over 15min.
2. Using a dial gauge, check the runout of tire.
The tire runout should be no more than 3.0mm
Notice
(1) You must use specified tire and special wheel rim provided by the authorized service
center, otherwise it may affect the normal safe running of the vehicle and even result in
accidents!
(2) If the wheel rim is damaged, you must go to the authorized service center for service and
replacement! Never use the wheel rim of any other model!
3. Changing tire position
It is recommended to change the tire for each 10000km driving. See the figure for where to change each
tire
4. Inspect wheel dynamic balance
The imbalance should be no more than 8.0g. Otherwise, there will be extra vibration and noise when
driving.Tire module Tire inflationpressure

127Section 2 Wheel ReplacementReplacement(1) Pry the edge of the wheel rim trim cover with screwdriver to remove the wheel rim trim cover
(2) Loose every tire nut with tire nut wrench.
(3) Four jacks support the vehicle body, two at each side as shown in the figure.
The jack should be near to the to-be-replaced wheel with solid base.
(4) Remove the wheel nut.
Caution:
(1) Make sure the parking brake control handle has been pulled up before jacking up the
vehicle
(2) Wheel nut torque : 95~115N.m
(3) Check the four wheel alignment when necessary

128Chapter 8 Power Steering SystemSection 1 Power Steering SystemPower Steering System DescriptionPower Steering System consists of the steering wheel, steering transmit device, power steering fixed device
and steering pipelines. The steering gear is rack and pinion type.
Major parameters for steering system:
Cautions:
1. Cautions for steering system
Make sure of the correct replacement of parts, incorrect replacement might affect the performance of
the steering system and lead to driving accidents.
2. Cautions for SRS System
This vehicle is equipped with SRS (Supplemental Restraint System), driver side air bag and front passenger
side air bag.
Failure to carry out service operations in the correct sequence could cause the unexpected deployment of
the air bag during servicing, possibly leading to a serious accident.Parameter

129Symptom TableThe table below is helpful to find the cause of the problem. The numbers indicate the priority of the likely
cause of the problem. Check each part in order. Repair or replace these parts or assemblies if necessary.On-vehicle inspection1. Check steering wheel free stroke
(1) Stop vehicle and keep the tires straight ahead.
(2) Rotate the steering wheel lightly, check the steering wheel free stroke.
