(1) LOCK when key is at this position, it can be pulled out and inserted in easily. The function of this position
is to lock steering wheel. If the key cannot be turned from LOCK to ACC, please rotate the steering wheel slightly
while turning the ignition key.
(2) ACC radio and cigarette lighter is turned on when key is at this position.
(3) ON when key is at this position, the following indicator is on: battery charging, ABS, brake fluid level,
park brake, engine coolant temperature, engine MIL, airbag oil pressure.
(4) START Turn the key to this position to start the engine. When engine is started, release the key
immediately. It returns to ON automatically. When engine is on, do not turn the key to this position.
Notice:
(1) Do not pull the key out or turn it to LOCK before the car is fully stopped, or there will be dangers caused
by locking steering wheel or disabling some safety functions.
(2) It is prohibited to drive the car with engine turned off to ensure functioning of braking and steering booster.
(3) Do not let the key stay at ON for a long time when engine is off, or the battery fully discharged.
(4) Shift to neutral gear before ignition key is switched to START.
(5) Turn the steering wheel lightly after the car is fully stopped to make sure it is locked.
3.Unlock Steering Wheel
How to unlock steering wheel: insert ignition key, turn the steering wheel lightly and switch the ignition key.
Steering wheel is unlocked.
4.Adjust seat position
Seat back angle and cushion angle of front seats in MK-1 sedan can be adjusted.
(1) Adjust seat back angle
Turn around adjusting handle, and adjust seat back to appro
priate position.
(2) Move seat forward or backward
Steps:
a. pull adjusting handler up
b. Move the seat forward or backward, and adjust the seat to
appropriate position.
c. Put the handler down and move the seat again till it is
locked.
Attention: adjust the seat only when the car is fully stopped
to ensure safety.
(3) Front head rest can be adjusted in two ways.
Push the head rest from back to front, there are three fixed
positions to lock.If pushed over the final locking position,the
head rest can return to the original position after hand
withdraws.
(4) Fold Rear Row Seat
The seat back can be tilted forward so that the trunk will be
used to the last degree.
a. Remove the head rest
b. Unlock the seatback and fold it down.
Split seatback can be folded separately on demand.
2-10 must be running at medium speed without load. Increase the speed and load gradually with the
accumulation of breaking-in mileage.
b. Because the brake plat is not broken in on a new vehicle,in order to ensure safety and reduce wear,avoid
harsh brake, and brake for multiple times to break in the brake plate faster.
c. It is better to avoid driving vehicle on steep roads or in bad conditions during breaking-in period.
d. Pay special attention to engine coolant temperature meter and oil pressure meter.Check engine oil level
frequently and make sure engine works in normal temperature and good lubrication.
e. Maintain the vehicle strictly according to first-time maintenance requirements to bring the vehicle into
normal usage life under good condition.
7.vehicle towing
There are towing facilities both in the front and rear end of MK-1 sedan for towing other vehicles and being towed.
To ensure safety, pay attention to the following instructions when towing.
(1) Towing car Towing car should be started and shifted steadily.The speed should be no more than 40km/h.
(2) Follow the instructions below when being towed:
a. Steering system of the vehicle being towed works well.
b. Braking system of the vehicle being towed works well or it cannot be towed with a rope and must be
towed with the towing shaft instead.
c. Release park brake and shift the transmission to neutral gear when the vehicle is being towed.
d. Turn the ignition switch to ACC to allow turning signal lights,braking indicator to be turned on when
necessary.
e. The towing rope must be tensioned in the towing process.
f. If the purpose of towing is to start the engine, shift the transmission to the 2nd or 3rd gear to increase
engine speed. It is good for starting the engine.
8. Instructions to save fuel when using the vehicle
(1) Reasonable load Do not store useless articles in luggage compartment because they consumes fuel for
nothing.
(2) Correct driving style Instructions as follows:
a. When engine is started, do not heat it but press the accelerator pedal slightly, drive the vehicle slowly
and accelerate gradually.
b. Shift to higher gears when driving to allow the engine to work at appropriate engine speed and avoid
running the engine at low or high speed. The engine speed should be higher than 2500r/min when
driving, and higher than 3000r/min when up-shifting.
c. Keep the vehicle speed stable, and avoid harsh acceleration and frequent braking.
d. Pay attention to vehicle speed. Drive at high speed results in excessive fuel consumption.
(3) Organize vehicle usage well Pay attention to the following two instructions.
a. Organize vehicle usage time and avoid short trips. Because at the beginning when the vehicle is started
(around 1km), the engine has not reached its efficiency point, and the fuel consumption doubles
compared to regular.
b. Select a good driving route, avoid driving through the city or blocks with heavy traffic.
(4) Keep the vehicle under good work condition Strictly follow instructions to maintain the vehicle to make
sure the vehicle is under good technical working condition, and inspect and replace key parts that affect vehicle
fuel consumptions. For example:Usage and Maintenance of MK Series - Usage of MK Series
2-11a. Keep air filter clean, Block of air filter affects engine air induction efficiency and increases fuel
consumption. So it must be cleaned and replaced in time.
b. Keep ignition system under good work condition. Bad connection or electricity leak of ignition coil and
power distributor or inappropriate gap or carbon residue of spark plug decreases ignition power supply
and efficiency, which leads to engine fuel consumption increase. So they need regular inspection and
repair to keep their good work condition.
c. Fuel feeding system works well. Often check if fuel feeder pipe leaks, and check if injectors and other
parts perform well on regular basis (electrical injection engines).
d. Keep regular tire pressure. If the tire pressure is not enough, vehicle rolling resistance increases and
engine fuel consumption increases accordingly. So tire pressure must be checked on time (around once
a week).Usage and Maintenance of MK Series - Usage of MK Series

TableEngine AssemblyEngine Inspection3-2 Note:
Check the belt distortion at the specified point (see Figure 1-1).
When mounting a new belt, set the tensioning force to specified value.
After the belt has been operated more than 5 minutes, check and ensure the distortion not exceeding specified
value. (2) Make sure that the coolant level is above the neck of the radiator.
(3) Put the radiator cover in place, pressurize to 2.0Mpa, and keep the pressure for 1minute unless the coolant
leaks. (Mount a tester on the radiator cover, start the engine, and then shut down under a pressure 2.0Mpa).
(4) Check whether the coolant quantity in the dilatation can is between the mark "Low" and "Full".
(5) Check whether the radiator cover is clean; test whether the opening pressure of the main valve is 107.8KPa
with a radiator cover tester. The minimum opening pressure is 58.5KPa.
6. Check the battery.
(1) The terminal voltage of the battery is 12.5-12.9V at 20°C, and charge when the voltage value is less than
the specified value. Check whether the fusible cutout and the fuse are loose, corrosive or on.
7. Check the air filter.
(1) Whether the cover, the case or the element of the filter is distorted, corroded or damaged.
(2) Whether the air hose is damaged.
(3) Whether the air chamber is distorted or damaged.
(4) Whether the air filter element is blocked, polluted or damaged. If the filter element is blocked slightly,
remove the dirt by blowing the element from above.
(5) Whether there is any pollutant or dirt on the air filter support.
8. Check the spark plug.
(1) Spark generation.
a. Disconnect the coupling of the injector.
b. Remove the spark plug from the secondary wire.
c. Remove the spark plug.
d. Connect the spark plug to the secondary wire.
e. Ground the spark plug.
f. Start the engine, and check whether spark is generated.
Prompt: The starting time is not more than 1-2s.
(2) Clean the spark plug: The air pressure is not greater than 588kp and the time is not more than 20s.
(3) Check whether the thread and the insulator of the spark plug are damaged. Replace if necessary.
(4) Check the electrode gap of the spark plug: 0.8±0.1mm for MR479Q and MR479QA; 1±0.05mm for
MR481QA.
9. Check the driving belt.
