(1) LOCK when key is at this position, it can be pulled out and inserted in easily. The function of this position
is to lock steering wheel. If the key cannot be turned from LOCK to ACC, please rotate the steering wheel slightly
while turning the ignition key.
(2) ACC radio and cigarette lighter is turned on when key is at this position.
(3) ON when key is at this position, the following indicator is on: battery charging, ABS, brake fluid level,
park brake, engine coolant temperature, engine MIL, airbag oil pressure.
(4) START Turn the key to this position to start the engine. When engine is started, release the key
immediately. It returns to ON automatically. When engine is on, do not turn the key to this position.
Notice:
(1) Do not pull the key out or turn it to LOCK before the car is fully stopped, or there will be dangers caused
by locking steering wheel or disabling some safety functions.
(2) It is prohibited to drive the car with engine turned off to ensure functioning of braking and steering booster.
(3) Do not let the key stay at ON for a long time when engine is off, or the battery fully discharged.
(4) Shift to neutral gear before ignition key is switched to START.
(5) Turn the steering wheel lightly after the car is fully stopped to make sure it is locked.
3.Unlock Steering Wheel
How to unlock steering wheel: insert ignition key, turn the steering wheel lightly and switch the ignition key.
Steering wheel is unlocked.
4.Adjust seat position
Seat back angle and cushion angle of front seats in MK-1 sedan can be adjusted.
(1) Adjust seat back angle
Turn around adjusting handle, and adjust seat back to appro
priate position.
(2) Move seat forward or backward
Steps:
a. pull adjusting handler up
b. Move the seat forward or backward, and adjust the seat to
appropriate position.
c. Put the handler down and move the seat again till it is
locked.
Attention: adjust the seat only when the car is fully stopped
to ensure safety.
(3) Front head rest can be adjusted in two ways.
Push the head rest from back to front, there are three fixed
positions to lock.If pushed over the final locking position,the
head rest can return to the original position after hand
withdraws.
(4) Fold Rear Row Seat

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

If clutch pinion does not return, replace electromagnetic switch.
2. Starter no-load test
(1)Connect field coil and binding post.
(2) As shown in the figure, connect ammeter and battery
to starter.
(3) When check whether clutch pinion moves outwards, starter
should rotate slowly and smoothly.
(4) Check whether current reading of ammeter is normal or not.
Normal current: less than 90 A at 11. 5 V
If current is abnormal, replace starter.Ammeter Battery

II. Charging system inspection1. Check battery working voltage
(1) After having driven the vehicle and in the case that 20 minutes
have not passed after having stopped the engine,turn the ignition
switch ON and turn on the electrical system (headlight,blower
motor) for 60 seconds to remove the surface charge.
(2) Turn the ignition switch OFF and turn off the electrical
systems. Then measure the battery voltage between the nega
tive and positive terminals of the battery.
Standard voltage: 12.5-12.9V at 20°C
Hint:
If the voltage is less than specification, charge the battery.
2. Check battery terminals, fuse box and fuse
(1) Check that the battery terminals are not loose or corroded.
(2) Check if fuse box and fuse for continuity.
3. Inspect drive belt
(1) Check the belt for excessive wear, frayed cords etc.
Hint:
If any defect has been found, replace the drive belt.
Cracks on the rib side of a belt are considered acceptable. If the
belt has chunks missing from the ribs, it should be replaced.
(2) Check that the belt fits properly in the ribbed grooves.
Hint:
Check with your hand to confirm that the belt has not slipped out
of the groove on the pulley.
4. Check alternator wiring
Check that the wiring is in good condition.Automobile Starting, Power Supply System -Charging system5-45. Listen for abnormal noises from alternator
Check that there is no abnormal noise from the alternator while the engine is running.
6. Inspect charge warning light circuit
Turn the ignition ON. Check that the charge warning light comes on. Start the engine. Check that the light
goes off.
Hint:
If the light does not work as normal, troubleshoot the charge warning light circuit.

Automobile Starting, Power Supply System -Charging system5-57. Inspect charging circuit without load
(1) If a battery/starter tester is available, connect the tester to the
charging circuit as per instructions.
(2) If a tester is not available, connect an ammeter and voltmeter
to the charging circuit as follows.
a. Disconnect to the wire from terminal B of the alternator
and connect it to the negative (-) pole of the ammeter.
b. Connect the positive (+) pole of the ammeter to terminal B
of the alternator.
c. Connect the positive (+) pole of the voltmeter to terminal B
of the alternator.
d. Ground the negative (-) pole of the voltmeter.
(3) Check the charging circuit
With the engine running from idle to 2,000 rpm, check the reading on the ammeter.
Standard amperage: 10A or less
Standard voltage: 12.9V-14.9V
8. Inspect charging circuit with load
(1) With the engine running at 2,000 rpm, turn on the high beam headlights and place the blower switch at "4".
Check the reading on the ammeter.
Standard amperage: 20A or more
(2) Hint:
If the ammeter reading is less than standard amperage, repair the alternator.
If the battery is fully charged, the indication value will sometimes be less than standard amperage.III. Alternator inspection1. Inspection of alternatorPullyStatorBearingBearing spacerRotorBearing cover
