After starting
Idle speed is controlled electronically. Straight after starting, the engine idles faster to warm up – this is normal. Once it's warm, the idle speed drops back to normal by itself. If it doesn't, have it checked by an authorised Jaecoo service centre.
In normal temperatures, let the engine idle for about 15 seconds after starting before you drive off – longer when it's cold. This warms the catalytic converter quickly, cuts emissions and helps restore brake vacuum if the car has been parked for a long time.
Warning:Exhaust gas contains harmful substances that can seriously damage your health. Never run the engine for long in an enclosed or poorly ventilated space such as a garage. If you run the engine with the car parked in a ventilated area, set the air conditioning to fresh-air (outside) mode and use a high fan speed.
