Throttle valve plate
The inner wall of the main chanel in the throttle valve
17. Check of water pump leakage
During the use of water pump, it is normal to see a few of water from the drainage hole of
water pump. When the water pump is mechanically sealed, the mechanical seal needs the
cooling waterto lubricate the sliding surface. Hence, in normal closing state, the coolant will
be drained out in form of steam or mist. In view of the water pump structure, the coolant
drained out needs to be discharged from the drain and steam holes.
Causes of leakage
1) The most cases of leakage are temporary instead of permanent. Such leakage should be
originated from the drain hole of water pump or the cooling water form the steam hole.
2) In addition, in terms of the water pump structure (mechanical seal), the temporary leakage
will not reduce the cooling performance (overheating etc.)(less or more cooling water etc.).
3) The after sales service will judge whether the water pump is qualified according to the
fowling methods and prevent the misjudgment of water pump leakageIn case of true leakage,
replaces the water pump.
Whether the water pump leaks or not will be determined as per the following procedures:

During the drive in the car, you need often to change the direction of drive (i.e. steering). Thus, the driver
will make, through the automotive steering system, the deflection at a certain angle of the wheel (steering
wheel)on the steering axle(front axle) relative to the vertical axis. In addition, when the car drive straight,
the steering wheel will deviate automatically under the effect of lateral disturbance of the road, and change
the original direction. Hence, the driver may also make, through the automotive steering system, the
steering wheel deflect in reverse direction and regain the initial direction.
The automotive steering system mainly includes three basic parts, i.e. the steering control mechanism,
steering gear and steering linkage device.
The steering control mechanism is basically composed of the steering wheel, steering shaft and steering
column. The automotive power system is made up of the power steering, steering oil pump, steering
reservoir and steering pipeline, where the power steering is the hydraulic booster actuator of the steering
system;
The steering oil pump is connected with the engine to build up the hydraulic power supply of system; and
the steering reservoir serves as the roles of storage, cooling, filter and oil supply.

3.1 Regularly checks whether the steering hydraulic oil is at shortage. If in such case, you should add in
time. At the same timeregularly cleans out the hydraulic oil cup and filter elements to prevent the
hydraulic oil from contamination or deterioration. It is recommended to replace the hydraulic oil one time
per 30000km,
3.2 During the maintenanceyou should check the tightness of the steering pump belt for any fractures. If in
such case, you should replace it in time. About 1cm pressed down by finger is considered as the appropriate
tightness;
3.3 Regularly checks the pipe joint of hydraulic system to see if there are any oil leakages. The hydraulic
oil pipe should be kept as far as possible away from the friction of other parts to prevent the air leakage. At
the mean timethe hydraulic hose should be replaced regularly to prevent the rubber hose from peeling and
blocking the pipe;
3.4 During the maintenance of steeringthe installation and adjustment should be properly made and the
hydraulic oil distribution valve and piston cavity cleaned out. Chooses the qualified and type matching oil
seal to prevent the hydraulic oil leakage;
3.5 When making the steeringthe time of steering to the dead end can not longer than 5sespecially
when turning in the spota certain margin should be reserved to ensure the normal operation state of the
hydraulic steering system.

Chapter VI Transmission shaft
The transmission shaft is also known as the universal driving device. Whose function is mainly to
connect two non-parallel shafts, and transfer the power along with its change of position. The axial line of
the gearbox output shaft intersects with that of the drive gear of rear axle with change in the relative
position. The power transfer between both units have to be made in the application of the universal driving
device. The universal driving device is in general composed of the universal joint, spline shaft, bushing
fork and transmission shaft body, sometimes added with the intermediate mounting parts.

Chapter VIII Brake system
I. Structure description:
The brake systems may be divided into the service brake system, parking brake system, emergency brake
system and assistant brake system etc. The brake system intended to decelerating and even parking in the
use process of the car is referred as to the Service Brake System; The brake system intended to park the
stopped car on the place is referred as to the Parking Brake System; The brake system, which can ensure
the car for decelerating or parking in case of the failure of service brake system, is referred as to the
Emergency Brake System; The brake system. Which assists the service brake system to reduce the speed or
maintain the steady speed in the use process, but unable to make an emergency brake, is referred as to the
Assistant Brake System. In terms of the above-describe brake systems, the service brake and parking brake
systems are necessarily required for every vehicle. Their functions are intended to force a car, as per the
requirement of driver, in the running process for deceleration and even stop, steadily park a stopped car on
different road conditions (incl. on the slope) and keep the stable speed of a car driving on down-hill road.
The model MP Midi is fitted with two sets of independent brake systems including the service brake system
action on the front/rear wheels; the hydraulic controlled dual braking system with the vacuum booster; the
front disc and rear drum brake and the rear wheel brake attached with the parking brake.
The service brake system is to be used during the driving in the car. It is food-operated and serves as the
master brake. The parking brake system is used during the parking and moving up on the slope. It is
manually controlled.
In case of emergency brake, the parking brake system is applied together with the service brake systems. In
case of the failure of service brake system, you should drive the car immediately , with the assistance of the
parking brake system, to a safe area or a service station for the inspection and maintenance.
(2) Ineffective brake. The car is unable to stop immediately when the brake pedal is stepped down, even
with poor effect followed by several steps.
Causes Troubleshooting
Air or oil leakage in the brake lines Drains out the air and eliminates the oil leakage

Excessive gap between the brake pedal and the free stroke Adjusts the free stroke of brake pedal
Excessive gap between the brake drum and friction plate clearance Adjusts the clearance
Leather cuff of brake blocked due to expansion Replaces the leather cuff
Friction plate excessively worn, poor contact or oil fouling Polishes or replaces the friction plates
Brake drum out of round, friction coefficient disqualified Repairs the brake drum or replaces it
Brake hose aged and expanded Replaces the hose
(3) Brake deviation. When making the brake, the brake power at both side is unbalanced or asynchronous
which deviates the car during the brake process.
Causes Troubleshooting

The car Frame seriously deformed. The wheelbase is not parallel Measures and adjusts
(4) Brake biting (Brake drum heating)
The brake effect can not be relieved in time after releasing the brake pedal, which overheats the brake drum.
The normal operating temperature of brake drum should not be higher than 70 of the ambient
temperature (the temperature will be even higher when driving on the long slope in the mountain area.).
The detection of cause for the brake drum heating may be carried out by the ways of the free driving path
and non-braking drive.The free loaded vehicle starts free driving on the Plain and dry road from the initial
speed of 30km/h to fully stop. The free-driving distance value (calculated as per the average value of two
round-trips) for the ordinary vehicle should be not less than 220m and for the FWD vehicle not less than
180m. If the slickness occurs between the brake drum and brake friction plate, the free wheel drive will
largely shorten and the brake drum will heat up.
The car drives 3-5km without stepping on the brake pedal.If the brake drum is heating, it is resulted by the
causes such as the brake friction plate rubbed with the brake drum or the looser hub bearing, rear axle
bending etc.To make further adjustment, you may lift the heating axles with the jack and rotate the
wheels.If the brake friction plate does not rub the brake drum, it should be determined that the hub bearing
is too loose the rear axle bent.

disconnect the negative cable of battery.
z When disconnecting the battery with the vehicle electric system, the negative cable has to be cut off,
then the positive. The reverse order is required when encasing.
z Do not keep the battery under direct sunshine for longtime, to avoid the damage of the battery shell by
strong ultraviolet ray.
z It is recommended to disconnect the battery when the car is going to leave unused more than 1 month.
z Provided the car is not used at low temperature for longtime, the proper measures for battery protection
should be taken to prevent the frozen damage.
z Be sure not to charge the frozen or defrost battery, otherwise it is likely to cause explosion. The frozen
battery has to be replaced. The empty battery is likely to freeze at about 0.
z In storage of battery, be sure that no large difference of temperature between the upper and lower parts,
otherwise the free discharge will come about.
Maintenance and testing
z The ambient temperature for battery storage is at 5-40, the heating or cooling measure should be
taken in excess of this rage.
z The environment of battery storage should be kept clean and dry, and the protective measures from
dust, rain and moisture should be available.
z If the storage of battery is longer than 90 days, it should be charged, the charge is to be made by the
ways as follows:
(1) The current at the rate capacity of 0.1 time for 20 hours (e.g. 6-QW-70: the charge current
=0.170=7A): After the battery voltage charged with the constant current reached to 14.40V,
continues to charge it for 1-2hours.
(2) Before the sale of car, the voltage should be measured. If the terminal voltage is lower than 12.50V,
the charge should be supplemented as per the above method.
z Visually checkes the outlook to observe if the battery shell shows any expansions or fractures. In case
of such expansion or fracture, be sure not to use again.
z Checks if there are any corrosions and contaminations on the connections of battery cable and the
cables. If contaminated, loosens them and wipes out.
z Checks through dropping the voltage of battery poles, and judges by the voltage dropout if there are
poor contacts at the joints. If the voltage dropout is higher than 0.1V, it indicates that extra-high
resitance exists at the pole connection, the joints need to be cleaned out.
z Leak detection of battery: connects the negative lead of voltmeter to the negative column of battery;
moves the positive lead to different position of battery shell. If no leakage of battery, there is no votage
display.
z This is the maintenance-free battery. With an interscope, the rough judgment can be made: when the
battery is of adequate charge (over 65%), it displays in green, when the charge is lower than 65%, it
displays in black. If colorless, it means the shortage of electrolyte. For the time being, the battery has to
be replaced.
z The voltage tesing by open circuit may substitutes the gravity testing: Bridges two test leads of
voltmeter over two pole columns of battery to measure the open-circuit voltage. The corresponding
relation between the test value of open-circuit voltage and the power state are shown as below:
Open-circuit voltage/V Power state /%
12.6 100
12.4 75
12.2 50
12.0 25
11.9 Fully discharged
Battery charge:
Additional charge of battery
z Storage period: three months for the storage of battery with liquid. When using in excess of the time
limit, the charge should be supplemented by the ways as follows:
In terms of maintenance-free battery: the charge applies the method of constant voltage: constant
voltage at 16V; max. tolerance current: 0.25C20A, until the charge current approaches the zero, and
keep continuousely steady for 2-3hours without change.
Description: C20 refers to the nominal rate capacity of battery for 20hours, e.g. the nominal rate
capacity for 20hrs of the battery in 54Ah: 54Ah, max. tolerance charge of current: 0.2554=14A
z When charging the battery, the temperature should not be higher than 45, otherwise the measures
such as the water bath should be used to reduce the temperature to temporarily lower the charge current
or voltage.
z During the first 3 hours of the charge process, be sure to observe in time and adjust the charge current,
so as to prevent the burnout of charger due to the overcurrent or other accidents.
Difference of supplementary charges between the fully free-service battery and open battery
z Because of the structural difference of the maintenance-free battery from the open typed battery, the
former one requires no water supplementary supply during the usage, thus the different charge method
is applied for the routine maintenance and application.
z In the maintenance and charge of open typed battery, the actual interior of the battery can be visible
because of the openable stopper, which enables the density measurement of each cell. While testing the
battery, each cell can be individually checked by the methods of constant voltage limit and constant
current charge; the distilled water can be supplemented during the use and maintencance, while the
service-free battery is different instead.
z When charging the maintenance free battery, the constant voltage limit should be applied, the voltage
at each terminal of battery in average should not exceed 16V(12V battery, same as below). If the
voltage is over 16V, large amount of air will exhaust from the air outlet, and cause the loss of
electrolyte. During the use, the battery can not be added with water. The overdissipated air will
premature the failure of battery. Therefore, the charge voltage of the service-free battery has to be
strictly controlled during the use and maintenance.
z In normal cases, the service-free battery doesnt require the charge by constant current, for the
temperature of battery will increase at the later period of the constant-current charge, most electrolyte
water from electric power will cause the loss of electrolyte. The repetition of constant current charge
will loosen too much of electrolyte and affect the starting performance of battery as well as the
premature of service life.

Common battery defects and analysis of causes
z The pole plate sulfitation of battery is one of commonly seen defects. The major cause is the fact that
the battery is short of the charge for longtime or the battery is left unused in state of insufficient power.
The heavy pole plate sulfitation causes the much lower voltage of battery, the concentration of
electrolyte reaches or approaches to that of water, which leads the larger inner resistance of battery and
difficult charge. The worser case may cause the battery discarded.
z Treatment of the pole plate sulfitation of battery:
Charges the battery with the current at 0.1C20A until the terminal voltage reaches to 15V, then
continues to charge by the current at 0.05C20A until the terminal voltage reaches again to 15V,
afterward, keeps charging for 5hours. Discharges the charged battery with the current at 0.05C20A
until the terminal voltage reaches to 10.8V. If the battery suffers from heavy sulfitation, the voltage
will surpass 15V once it is power-supplied, thus, charges the battery with the current at 0.05C20A until
the terminal voltage is lower than 15V. Afterward, follows up the above method for subsequent
treatment.
z The blockout of pole plate is another defect. The major reason thereof is that the battery is kept for
longtime in state of overcharge during the usage, due to higher voltage output from the voltage
regulator of car, which increases the water consumption of battery and furtherly raises the temperature
in the battery. This leads to fast blockout of pole plates as well as much lower capacity.
z This kind of loss of capacity is perminant, there is no alternatives for the battery remedy.

V Causes of failures and maintenance
The failures of safety airbagsystem are divided into the exterior and interior parts, which may be displayed
through the indicator flashing of combination instrument. The safety airbag indicator is driven by the ECU.
The indication of all information is controlled by the ECU. By flashing of the indicator, the information
output of system may be classified into three types: i.e. Failures of power supply failures, installation of
airbag components and ECU interior, where the failures of power supply and installation of airbag
components belong to the exterior failures.
a. Exterior failures

Section VI A/C system
I. Sound use of A/C system and precautions:
When starting the engine, the A/C switch should be on the OFF position.
After the engine flamed out, sets the A/C airflow switch on the OFF, turns off the A/C switch to save the
battery power.
Try to avoid parking the car directly exposed under sunshine for longtime in summer. After parking for
longtime, the car gets very hot inside. In such case, you should open the windows first and turns on the
blower to max. level(i.e. blower outer circulation mode instead of A/C) to exhaust the hot air inside. Turns
off again and sets the fresh air circulation damper to inner circulation for turning on the A/C.
Adjusts the outlet to orient the airflow to the upper body or face, instead of facing the cool air directly
on the headback or knees. If the airflow is stronger, do not blow it directly to the body.
When overtaking a car, turns off the A/C to ensure the optimal overtaking performance.
When driving on hill road for a long distance, you should turn off the A/C for a while to prevent the
water tank boiled.
When driving at rainy night, do not set the A/C at too much lower temperature and try to lower the
airflow of blower.
The overheating level of expansion valve has been set before the delivery, it is not advisable to adjust it.
Regularly cleans out the condenser (rinse with the compressed air or cool water instead of injecting with
steam).
During non-use period in winter, you should frequently operate the compressor to prevent the
compressor shaft seal from oil dried leakage and axis locking due to the oil dry. En general, the compressor
should run 1-2 times per month, ca. 10mins per time. Try to prevent the compressor shaft seal from oil
dried leakage and axis locking due to the oil dry. When the temperature is too low in winter (ca. 5), the
A/C may fail to start due to the low temperature, thus, turns on the heater first and then the A/C after the
temperature inside raises up.
During the A/C operation, turns off it when hearing the abnormal noise in the A/C device(e.g.
compressor, blower, tube cracks etc.) or any other abnormality and calls on the maintenance personnel for
inspection.
The temperature the most healthy inside temperature differs around 57 from the outside air
temperature.
It is not allowed to add the liquefied coolant from the low pressure end. When filling with the coolant
from the high pressure end, do not turn on the compressure. The charge of coolan should be operated by the
special maintenance personnel.
The temperature inside lower than 25 or inappropriate operation (compressor speed too high or
airflow of blower too low) are very likely to freeze the evaporator. Once the frosted evaporator detected,
one of the following methods may be taken for defrosting: 1. The A/C system will automatically turn off
once frosted. In case of any changes inside the control parts, pauses the A/C switch for a while. 2. Opens
wider the outer circulation vent to introduce fresh aire for defrosting, while the blower is turned on to the
max. speed.
In comparison of the use of the Green World type R134asystem with the R12 system, two types of
coolant media can not Mix with the system and each parts not substitutable. Hence, this model can not
added with the coolant type R12.
In case of the coolant addition by maintenance, the coolant should be added appropriately and the type
of coolant matching with the compressor to be used. The mixed use of coolant will cause it spoiled. E.g.
Chongqing JIANSHE compressor-JSS120 uses the lubricant type RS20.
In case of failures, please contact with the special service station, be sure not to make any disassembly
and adjustmeng individually.
II. Maintenance of automotive A/C
2.1 Routine maintenance of automotive A/C
1. Prior to departure, makes regular check on the A/C system and cleans out the carriage to prevent the
miscellanies, paper scraps from jamping the exchanger port and catching fire. Before the summer comes,
you should more carefully check the A/C system and correctly use it.
2. Checks frequently the operation of oil line system to prevent from leakage.
2.2 Cleaning and maintenance of dual air system
1. Clean condenser. Regularly checks the condenser faade to see if there are any curved fins and foreign
matters. In caseof fins if any, pulls them straight with the nose pliers, If any foreign matters, you should use
the hard brush to remove them.
2. Checks the coolant to see if there are any leakages, for the compressor oil and coolant are conveyed
together through the system. therefore, when the coolant leaks, it will bring out the oil and leave the oil
traces on the leakage place. Checks especially if there are any greasy stains on the joints of various hoses
and connectors. If any greasy stains discovered, it means that there aer leakages in the system and needs to
repare it.
3. Checks the tightness of the compressor belt, and regularly examins the belt tension and its use condition.
In case where the contact surface between the belt and belt pully shimmers, it indicates the belt is skidding.
You should check if the belt is too looser. For the check operation, uses the finger to forcibly press down
the middle part of the belt tensionner, the belt should bend down ca. 1215mm.
4. Regularly runs the A/C at a rate of 5min/week to lubricate the interior of parts and prevent the hosed
from aging.
5. After the new car has been used for a half year, some items of A/C system of new car should be made in
combinatntion the complete vehicle.
6. After the new car has been used for one year, some items of A/C system of new car should be made in
combinatntion the complete vehicle.
