Jacking up a 4-wheel drive vehicles
236)
Clutch operation
Quick or slight clutch engagement
made while the engine is running at
high speed will cause damage to the
clutch and transmission because the
tractive force is very great. Operate the
pedal slowly and positively.
IMPORTANT
146)Always use tyres of the same size,
same type, and same brand which have no
wear differences. Using the tyres which
differ in size, type, brands or the degree of
wear or the inappropriate tyre inflation
pressure, will increase the differential oil
temperature, resulting in possible damage
to the driving system. Further, the drive
train will be subjected to excessive loading,
possibly leading to oil leakage, component
seizure, or other serious faults.
147)Transport the vehicle with the driving
wheels on a carriage (Type C or D) as
illustrated. Never try to tow with the front or
rear wheels on the ground (Type A or B) as
illustrated. This could result in damage to
the drivetrain, or unstable towing.
WARNING
236)Do not crank the engine while jacking
up the vehicle. The tyre on the ground may
turn and the vehicle may roll off the jack.
BRAKING SYSTEM
All the parts of the brake system are
critical to safety. We recommend you to
have the vehicle checked at regular
intervals according to the service
booklet.
238)
Brake system
The service brake is divided into two
brake circuits. And your vehicle is
equipped with power brakes. If one
brake circuit fails, the other is available
to stop the vehicle. If your vehicle
should lose the power assist for some
reason, the brakes will still work.
In these situations even if the brake
pedal moves down to the very end of
its possible stroke or resists being
depressed, keep depressing the brake
pedal down harder and further than
usual; stop driving as soon as possible
and have the brake system repaired.
237)................................0
Warning lamp
The brake warning lamp illuminates to
indicate a fault in the braking system.
Refer to “Brake warning lamp”.
When brakes are wet
Check the brake system while driving at
a low speed immediately after starting,
especially when the brakes are wet, to
confirm they work normally.

WARNING
254)In the country or area where is no
available emergency call centre of the
ERA-GLONASS, or where the radio wave
of emergency call cannot be transmitted or
received normally, the system does not
operate. In this case, directly arrange an
emergency vehicle or road service with a
cellular phone, etc.
255)If an emergency occurs and you feel a
smell of the fuel or a bad smell, do not stay
inside the vehicle and escape to a safe
place immediately.
256)While waiting for the rescue after the
emergency call, take action to prevent
secondary accidents such as a rear end
collision with the following vehicle, and
escape to a safe place.
257)In the following cases, directly arrange
an emergency vehicle or road service with
a cellular phone, etc. 1 - When the system
does not operate by failing because of
collision, etc. 2 - When the vehicle is in the
place where radio waves cannot be
