3) General Instructions
Before lifting up the vehicle with a lift, correctly support the lifting points.
When using a jack, park the vehicle on a level ground and place the wheel chocks under the tires.
Position the jack under the frame and lift up the vehicle and then support with chassis stand before
service work.
Make sure to disconnect the negative (-) cable from the battery to prevent any damage to electric
systems.
If you have to work on vehicle, cover the seats and floor with protection covers to avoid any
damage and contamination.
Brake fluid and anti-freeze can damage the painted surface of body. So carefully handle them
during service work.
To improve the efficiency of service work, use only recommended and specified tools.
Use only Ssangyong genuine spare parts.
Never reuse the cotter pin, gasket, O-ring, oil seal, lock washer and self-locking nut. Replace them
with new ones. If reused, normal functions cannot be maintained.
Store the disassembled parts as a set based on disassembly order and unit.
Pay particular attention not to miss or mix the fasteners.
If necessary, especially for inspection, clean the removed parts completely.
Apply the oil or grease on the running and sliding surfeces before installation. Use the specified
sealant and gasket to prevent leakage if necessary.
Tighten the fasteners with the specified tightening torque.
As a final stage of service work, check if the serviced system is working properly and the problem
has been eliminated clearly. (1)

4) Basic Inspection
(1) Horn operation
Listen for the horn sound when pressing the horn pad on the steering wheel. -
(2) Brake operation
Check if there is any abnormal noise, unusually long braking distance, or uneven braking force. If the
brake warning lamp does not go out even after starting the engien or are flashing during driving,
have the brake system checked immediately.
Check the brake pipes and hoses for connection, oil leak, crack or interference after changing the
position of tires. When replacing the tires, check the brake disc for surface condition and wear.
Check the parking brake cable and brake operation. Shorten the checking interval if the parking
brake is used frequently. -
-
-
(3) Exhaust system
Be aware to any changes in sound or smell from the exhaust system. These may be caused by leak or
overheat. Have the exhaust system checked and repaired immediately.
Inspect the exhaust system including catalytic converter. Inspect all the components and body frame
near the exhaust system. -
-
(4) Tires
Unusual vibration of the steering wheel and seats or pulling to one side on the straight and level roads
may indicates the uneven tire inflation pressure or poor wheel balance. -
(5) Steering and suspension system
Inspect the front and rear suspension and the steering system for damage, looseness or missing
parts, signs of wear or lack of lubrication. Inspect the power steering line and the hoses for
connection, leak, crack and chafing. Inspect the drive axle boot and seals for damage, tear or leak.
Replace or repair the system if necessary. -
(6) Engine oil
Check the oil level when the engine is still warm and add the specified engine oil if necessary. -
(7) Coolant
Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir, coolant conditions (contamination, foreign material),
and hoses for damage and leak. Replace or add the Ssangyong genuine coolant, if needed. -
(8) Engine drive belt
Check all drive belts on the engine for wear, crack and looseness. Retighten or replace the belt, if
needed. -

Seat belt reminder ▶
Operating conditions for seat belt reminder are as follows: IGN ON, engine running (over 300 rpm),
vehicle speed of 25 km/h or higher, driver seat belt unfastened, passenger seat belt unfastened and
passenger seat occupied. In addition, if the seat belt reminder is activated at the speed of 25 km/h or
higher and the speed reduces to below 25 km/h within 5 minutes, the interior buzzer sound stops. The
buzzer sounds for 5 minutes again when the speed is 25 km/h or higher.
The seat belt reminder stops its operation when fastening the seat belt, but starts the operation again if
unfastening the seat belt.
If the seat belt reminder is initially operated due to unfastened driver seat belt, the buzzer sounds with
the interval of 0.02s ON/1.18s OFF, the instrument cluster sends the driver seat belt warning signal
(SBR) and the seat belt warning lamp stays on.
At this time, the buzzer sounds for 5 minutes.
If the seat belt reminder is operated due to unfastened passenger seat belt when the passenger seat
belt reminder sensor detects that the passenger seat is occupied, the instrument cluster sends the
driver seat belt warning signal and the seat belt warning lamp stays on.
For this case, the indicator shows each status of the driver and passenger seats but the indoor buzzer
is common to both seats.
If the simultaneous operating condition for the indoor buzzer is met, the driver seat has the priority.
If the driver seat belt is fastened, the same operation is also carried out in the passenger seat
automatically.
The buzzer and the warning lamp are operated according to the vehicle speed as below table during
the seat belt reminder operation. 1.

2. WARNINGS FOR POWER SEAT
Adjust the driver's seat before driving.
Make sure that the seat is firmly secured after adjusting.
Never drive the vehicle with the head restraint removed or lowered excessively. Otherwise, you
r
neck, spine or other parts of the body can be severely injured in the event of an accident.
If you recline the seatback excessively, you could slide under the seat belt and be injured severely
in a collision.
Do not put any object that could damage the seat on the seat.
The front and rear seats are equipped with the heated wire (seat warmer) system. Using the seat
warmer system excessively may cause minor burns. The following occupants should exercise
special care when using the heated wire seat. ▷
▷
▷
▷
▷
▷
Infant, child, old or handicapped person
Person with sensitive skin
Exhausted person
Persons who is drunk or took medicine which causes drowsiness such as sleeping pills, cold
tablets, etc. -
-
-
-
Do not place anything on the seat that insulates against the heat, such as a blanket or cushion.
Make sure that the head restraints are in place and secured properly. Never drive the vehicle with
the head restraint removed.
To minimize the injuries in a collision or an abrupt stop, make sure the seatback is in the upright
position before driving. If the seatback is reclined too much, the occupant could slide under the seat
belt in a collision or an abrupt stop and cannot be protected properly by the airbag system. ▷

3. CAUTIONS FOR POWER SEAT
You can operate the power seat with the ignition switch OFF. However, frequent operation of the
seat switch with the engine stopped can result in battery becoming discharged.
Operating more than one seat adjustment switch at the same time can cause damage to the seat
motor. Therefore, operate the seat switch only one at a time.
Do not use organic solvents such as benzene, thinner, alcohol or gasoline to prevent the seat cove
r
from being damaged while cleaning.
Do not operate the seat position adjustment switch forcefully when the seat does not move or it
contacts an object.
If the power seat is not operated, check and correct the problem before driving off. ▷
