General Information - How to Use This Manual1-1Part 1 General InformationChapter 1 How to Use This ManualI. Instruction1. General Information
(1)This manual conform to the first part of GB/T1.1--2000 Standardization Guide: The structure and prepar-
ing rule of the standard.
(2)Generally, the repairing job can be divided into the following 3 procedures:
1. Diagnosis
2. Removal and installation, replacement, disassembly and inspection, adjustment
3. Final inspection
(3) The first procedure “Diagnosis” (the details refers to each section or chapter) and second procedure “Re-
moval and installation, replacement, disassembly and inspection, adjustment” are scattered in the chapters and
sections, and this manual omits the third procedure “Final inspection”.
(4) This manual does not include the following basic operations which are imperative in real scenarios.
operate the jack or lifter
b. clean the removed parts if necessary.
c. inspect the appearance
2. Preparation
SST (Special Service Tools) and SSM (Special Service Materials) may be required and correctly used based
on the repairing condition, make sure the job procedure is followed.
3. Repair Procedure
(1) The disassembly illustration is placed under the title.
(2) The illustration shows the disassembly of the parts to help you understand the assembly of the parts. (3) Non-reusable parts need to be coated with grease, and the precoated parts and torque are specially shownin the disassembly illustration.
(4) Sometimes, the illustrations of the similar model are used where there may be some details differently
from the actual vehicle.
(5)The operational procedure is described in the following ways:
a. The illustration shows what to do and where to do it.
b. The task heading tells what to do.
c.The detailed text tells how to perform the task and gives other information such as specifications and
warnings.
4. Specification
Specifications are presented in bold type throughout the manual.

General Information - Repair Instruction1-7 (3) Driver Airbag Assembly
a. When removing the driver airbag assembly or handling a new driver airbag assembly, it should be placed
with the steering wheel top surface facing up. Storing the steering wheel with its top surface facing downward
may lead to a serious accident if the airbag deploys for some reason. In addition do not store a driver airbag
assembly on top of another one.
b. Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib. (This may cause the airbag to deploy, which is very
dangerous.)
c. Grease should not be applied to the driver airbag assembly and the pad should not be cleaned with
detergents of any kind. (2) Clock Spring (in combination switch)
The steering wheel must be fitted correctly to the steering col-
umn with the clock spring at the neutral position, otherwise clock
spring disconnection and other troubles may result.
c. Even in cases of a minor collision where the SRS does not deploy, the driver airbag assembly, front
passenger airbag assembly and seat belt pretensioner should be inspected.
e. Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When replacing parts, replace them with new parts.
f. Before repairs, remove the airbag ECU if shocks are likely to be applied to the sensor during repairs.
g. Never disassemble and repair the airbag ECU assembly, driver airbag assembly, front passenger airbag
assembly or seat belt pretensioner.
h. If the airbag ECU assembly, driver airbag assembly, front passenger airbag assembly or seat belt
pretensioner has been dropped, or if there are cracks, dents or other defects in the case, bracket or connector,
replace them with new ones.
i. Do not directly expose the airbag ECU assembly, driver airbag assembly, front passenger airbag assem-
bly or seat belt pretensioner to hot air or flames.
j. Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 k ohm/ V minimum) for troubleshooting of the electrical
circuit.
Information labels are attached to the periphery of the SRS components. Follow the instructions on the
notices.
After work on the supplemental restraint system is completed, check the SRS warning light MarkCorrectWrongd.

2-85. Actions to ensure vehicle working condition and safe driving.
(1) To make sure of driving safety, execute the following inspections before driving.
a. Inspect fuel level, and add fuel when necessary.
b. Inspect illuminating lights, turning signal lights, braking signal lights to see if they work.
c.Check the position of rearview mirrors.
d.Check if breaking system functions well.
e.Check if glass of all the lights, windshield is clean.
(2) Regular inspection Perform the following regular inspections to ensure the vehicle work condition and
driving safety.
a. Check engine oil level. Park the vehicle on flat road; check the oil level with engine oil level indicator
at least 10 minutes after the engine is stopped. The oil level should be between the two marks. If it is
lower than "L" mark, add some oil; if it is higher than "F" mark, there is excessive oil, so release it.
Or investigate the cause of high oil level.
The volume between the lowest oil level ("L") and highest oil level ("F") is 1.4L.
b. Check engine coolant level. Check the level when the engine is cool. The coolant level should be between
LOW and FULL. If it is lower than "LOW", add coolant. If the coolant is much lower than Min (every
coolant fill is more than 1L) or the vehicle requires frequent fills,investigate if there is any problem with
the cooling system.
To keep the function of coolant, replace coolant every two years at the beginning of cold winter.
c. Check brake and clutch fluid level (sharing a reservoir). Brake fluid level should between the Max and
Min marks. And it is better to keep it close to the Max mark. Add fluid in time when there is not enough
fluid.
d. Check power steering fluid tank. The level should be between Max and Min marks. Refill when there
is not enough steering fluid to avoid pump stuck. It is strictly prohibited to run the vehicle without
steering fluid in any circumstances.
e. Check the charging status of battery and if the connection of battery wires is good.
f. Check tire status and pressure
g. Check the status of wipers.
(3) Observe warning lights and indicators on instrument panel.
a. There are various warning lights and indicators on the instrument panel of MK-1 sedans to indicate and
warn abnormal operations of engine, braking, and charging systems.
b. Pay attention to these lights when driving.When the warning lights or indicators are on,stop the vehicle,
check the vehicle and resolve the causes to make sure the vehicle works well or drives safely.
6. Correct ways to use new cars
Reliability and stability of components in new cars and recently repaired cars still need to be confirmed, and
relative parts are not broken-in, so they must be used carefully to ensure driving safety, to avoid abnormal damage,
and to extend the useful life of the car.
(1) Before driving inspection The following inspections must be performed on the new car to ensure car safety
and reliable operation:
a. Check if instrument panel, warning lights, and indicator, front and rear wiper and washer, and switches
work.
b. Check if the fastening of driveline, steering, suspension, wheels and other connection parts is good.Usage and Maintenance of MK Series - Usage of MK Series
