Check the stroke of the parking brake by counting the num-
1
ber of notch clicks heard while fully applying it from the re-
leased position.

Also, the parking brake alone should securely hold the ve-

hicle on a fairly steep grade. If the number of clicks is more
or less than specified, have the parking brake adjusted by

a Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service
Operation.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER
9
The catalytic converter is located between exhaust manifold
and center muffler. The catalytic converter consists of mono-
10
liths with honeycomb shaped structure of ceramic material
which are elastically mounted in a wire mesh structure.
11
This precious metal coating on the monoliths accelerate the
12 reduction and/or oxidation of toxic components.
On vehicles with a catalytic converter for unleaded fuel, lead
13
fuel will damage the catalytic converter and parts of the elec-
tronic system, thereby rendering them inoperative.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
Page 20
Damage to the catalytic converter or the vehicle may re-
sult if the following points are not observed :
Consult a Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Ser-
vice Operation as Quickly as possible in the event of misfiring,
irregular engine running following a cold start, a significant
loss of engine power or other unusual malfunctions which
may indicate a fault in the ignition system.
If necessary, driving may be continued for a short time at a
low speed and with low engine revolutions.
You should therefore avoid :
• Frequent repeated cold starts.
• Actuation of the starter for an unnecessarily long time dur-
ing starting (fuel is injected during the starting procedure).
• Allowing the tank to become empty (an irregular fuel sup-
ply leads to overheating)
• Starting the engine by pushing or towing (unburned fuel
may enter the catalytic converter) : use jump leads.
Have all maintenance work carried out by a Ssangyong
Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Service Operation. You can
then be certain that all components of the vehicle's electrical,
injection and ignition system will be operating correctly, that
your vehicle has a low level of pollutant emission and that
the catalytic converter system will have a long life.
