10.
Plan an appropriate running route.
Optimize the route and try to avoid the traf-
fic jam road segment. This will not only save
your time, but also reduce the fuel con-
sumption.
11.
Don't change the tire sizes at will.
The use of bigger or wider tires will result in
higher fuel consumption.
Driving with Cautions
Driving with cautions means "Be ready to
cope with unexpected situations". To fasten
your seat belt is the first step of driving with
cautions.
Assuming that other road users
(pedestrians, cyclists and other driv-
ers) may be careless and make mistakes,
you should predict what they will do and get
ready.
Keep the enough distance between
your vehicle and the vehicles ahead.
Pay attention to driving. The distraction of
the driver may cause crashes, resulting in
injuries or deaths. These simple careful
driving skills could save your life.
Drunk Driving
Drunk driving is very dangerous.
Even small amount of alcohol can
affect the person's reactivity, perception,
attention and judgment. Drunk driving may
cause serious or even fatal collisions. Don't
drink and drive or ride in vehicles driven by
the driver drank wine. Please take a taxi to
go home, or in the case of many counter-
parts, designate a person not drunk to
drive.
Alcohol can affect a driver in four aspects:
judgment, muscle coordination, vision and
attention. According to the statistics, almost
40% of all causes of deaths are associated
with motor vehicles are related to alcohol. In
most cases, the cause of death is the
driver's drunk driving. The most obvious
solution to eliminate the highway potential
safety hazards is to let the driver never
drink and drive. Medical researches have
shown that alcohol in the human body can
make collision damage more serious, espe-
cially to the brain, spinal cord or heart. It
means that the possibility of the death or
permanent disability of the drunk- driver or
passengers in a collision accident will be
higher than those who don't drink.
Vehicle Control
The following three systems can help you
control the vehicle while driving: braking
system, steering system and accelerating
system. Sometimes when driving on snow
or ice surface, the adhesion force provided
by the tire and road is far lower than the one
required by the control system. It means
that you might lose the control of vehicle.
The equipped non-original attachment may
affect the vehicle performance.
Parking
When you need to stop the vehicle
with the turbo engine under high
speed and full load conditions, avoid imme-
diate shutting down the engine, but gradu-
ally decrease the speed and load. Idle the
engine for 3~5 minutes to prevent the dam-
age to the turbo due to lack of lubrication
and overheating. Avoid idling the engine for
a long time (no more than 20 minutes).
