New vehicle running-in
The running-in of new vehicle is
mainly to improve the surface quality
and the friction and wear state of moving
parts, so as to extend service life and
reduce power consumption. During the
running-in period of the new vehicle, the
following requirements should be met:
When starting
•
pressing the accelerator pedal to the
bottom.
In the running-in period, the vehicle
•
should run on flat roads. Driving on a

Driving in winter
Winter tire
It is recommended to use winter tires if you
often drive the vehicle on roads with ice or
snow. Although all-season tires can provide
excellent comprehensive performance on
most surfaces, they may be unable to
and driving, avoid
provide expected friction force or same
performance level as winter tires when
running on roads covered with ice or snow.
Usually, using winter tires is to increase
friction force on road surface covered by ice
or snow. If the vehicle with winter tires run
on a dry road, the vehicle traction will drop,
road noise will increase and tire tread
pattern's service life will be shortened. After
replacing winter tires, pay attention to the
changes in vehicle handling and braking.
Please consult with Geely Service for details
about supply and selection of suitable winter
tires. If you choose to use winter tires:
You shall use tires of same brand and
•
same tread pattern on all four wheels'
positions.
Only radial tires of same size, loading
•
range and rated speed as original tires
can be used.
If you choose winter tires with lower rated
•
speed, be sure not to drive at the speed
exceeding maximum rated speed of the
tires.
