Safety prevention

Cautions for electrical technicians using medical electrics

Forbidden operation

Warning:

●     There is strong magnetic components on this vehicle

●     If technician use medical electrics,e.g electronic pacemakers, which couldn’t be operated in the vehicle ,otherwise,the function of electrics may be effected by strong magnetic components.

Cautions for normal charge

Warning:

●     If technician use the medical electrics like pacemakers, cardiovascular, in addition to the top, the machine only could be used after the function of machine checked and confirmed before normally operation.

●     In the normal charging operation, Medical electrics may be affected by electromagnetic wave. When Technicians use the medical electrics like pacemakers, cardiovascular, in addition to the top etc,  it is not allowed to enter into crew capsule (including luggage).

Cautions for communication equipment

●     If technicians use the medical electrics like pacemakers, cardiovascular, in addition to the top etc, please keep enough distance with the communication equipment.

●     Remote intelligent terminal of electromagnetic waves may affect the function of the medical electrics like pacemakers, cardiovascular, in addition to the top etc.

●     If technicians use the medical electrics like pacemakers, cardiovascular, in addition to the top etc, remote intelligent terminal of electromagnetic waves may affect the function of the medical electrics. It is needed to let the manufacturer of the medial electrics confirm that the possible affection to medical electric equipment when using remote intelligent terminal .

Keypoint checking before maintenance

High pressure system can be run automatically, it is need to confirm that remote air conditioning and recharged regularly are not set before maintenance.

Cautions:

●     If set remote air-conditioner or charged regularly, even though the switch is closed, high pressure system can be run automatically.


Cautions for "safety airbag"and"safety belt preloaded"of auxiliary constraint system

The combination use of "safety airbag"and"safety belt preloaded"of auxiliary constraint system and front seat belt could decrease the damage to driver and passengers when collision. The auxiliary constraint system include seat belt, airbag for driver, airbag for co-driver. The detailed information for auxiliary constraint system could refers to the sections of “airbag system” and “seat belt”

Warning:

To avoid unexpected accident, we need to obey the following:

●     To avoid the auxiliary constraint system invalid, all the maintenance only could be operated by JAC authorized distributors because the risk of injury to people will be increased after invalid.

●     Non-standard auxiliary constraint system of maintenance including non-standard disassembly and installation, may result in auxiliary constraint system accident triggered, causing personal injury accidents. About remove the airbag module method, please see "airbag system" section.

●     In addition to the maintenance instructions in the manual operation, do not use electrical test equipment to test any circuit of auxiliary constraint system. Auxiliary constraint system of connectors and wiring harness use yellow or orange color.

Cautions when use electrical tools (pneumatic or electric)and hammer

     when electric switch in the "ON" block, near the airbag diagnostic sensors or other sensor,  do not use power tools or hammer to operate sensor parts  area. Severe vibration may activate the sensor, some airbags, causing serious damage.

●     When using power tools or hammer, put the keys in the "LOCK" block, unplug the 12 v lead-acid battery cathode, waiting at least 1 minute, then for checking and maintenance.

Cautions for removing 12V battery

Turn the key to “on”,then to “lock” before remove 12v battery

Tip:

●     Even if the key in the "LOCK" and the 12 v battery charging function may start automatically.

●     After turn the key to "ON" --> "LOCK",  12 v battery automatic charging will not start.

Cautions for steering control system

●     When turn steering wheel quickly,could hear the noise around steering wheel, which is the voice of the steering control system to work normally. If turn the steering wheel slowly , appear harsh noise, which is regarded as the abnormal phenomena. If yes, please repair.

Electric booster steering system fault warning light

Turn the key to "START" from the "LOCK", ,the vehicle at “READY” status, steering control system self-check. If it is normal, the system enter the working state; If not, electric booster steering system fault warning lights lit, the system has no power.

When steering control system is failure, electrical booster steering system fault warning light lit, start safety-invalid mode.

Condition

electrical booster steering system fault warning light

After “READY”

Light off

Start vehicle

Light off

Steering control system fault

Light on

Safety- invalid

System fault, electric booster steering system fault warning lights lit, entering into no power or small power steering mode (steering wheel steering force will be heavier).

There is only speed signal fault, entering into small power mode, the steering force becomes obviously heavy.

Protective function

Overload using steering function (such as continuous turning in the same place), temperature of EPS controller and EPS motor rise fast, when the temperature reached set value, EPS controller control of EPS motor, reduce the working current, (overload protection).At this time, the steering force becomes obviously heavy,which is normal. Once temperature is reduced to set data, power function will recover.

Basic check

Diagnostic and maintenance process

Fault diagnostic process details

1          Collect customer information

Before check, carefully ask customer concerns or driving vehicles together with the customer which is very important for solving the problem.

2          Check symptom

According to the information collected through interviewing with the customer ,reappear information of customer specified symptoms. Check whether the symptoms caused by the failure mode.

Caution:

When symptoms are caused by normal operation, please fully inspect each related parts and let customers understand the symptoms are normal.

3     Check electrical booster steering system fault warning light. Please see “electrical booster steering system fault warning light check”

4          EPS fault diagnosis and maintenance

Diagnose whether there is fault code with diagnostic instrument ;

Yes>>record and delete fault code, turn to “fault code, electrical line fault diagnosis”

No>> turn to “Normal symptom and analysis”


Diagnosis working list

In general, customers have their own judgment standard to a problem. Therefore, careful enough to ask to understand customer's concern is very important. Preparing interview list make diagnostic information systematic. Some times, many conditions occur at the same time resulting in failure.
