1. OPERATION OF NEW VEHICLE
1-1 HOW TO HANDLE THE VEHICLE
It is important to follow the instructions as outlined here,
because careful breaking-in of your vehicle will greatly
increase its life and performance.
Engine type
MTA0011
Service intervals for changing
engine oil and filter
1) Follow oil change interval.
For further information, refer to "Recommended
DE
DV
DDC
At end of first 1,000km
Short distance travel(in city):
every 10,000km
Long distance travel(at high
speed): every 15,000km
Every 15,000km
* Lubricants".
When this vehicle was released, engine oil
added with abrasive material was used for its
diesel engine(DE/DV). So, make sure to change
the engine oil after the first 1,000 km.
*
Oil must be replaced at least every 6 months.
MTA0020
2) Follow the instructions on how to operate
the new vehicle.
It is necessary to allow the moving parts of the
new vehicle to break in for the first 4,000 km.
(1) Warm up the engine after starting it. In cold
weather, especially, warm up the engine suffi-
ciently before starting off.
(2) Do not abruptly increase rev during idling.
(3) Avoid jack-rabbit starts, abrupt acceleration, or
sudden stops.
MTA0031

1-2HOWTOHANDLETHEVEHICLE
DDC (4) During the first 4,000 km, limit engine speed to
70 percent of the maximum allowance, and
frequently watch tachometer to prevent engine
over-running while driving your vehicle.

cording to "CONTROLS AND INSTRU-
MENTS" and "BEFORE DRIVING OFF".
MTA0050
4) In order to operate your vehicle safely and
dependably, it is imperative to perform ne-
cessary inspection and adjustment as out-
lined in "INSPECTION AND MAINTE-
NANCE".
MEA0021
MTA0071
5) Overloading may not only shorten the ser-
vice life of your vehicle but also cause seri-
ous problems against your safety. The weight
of the payload must be within the GVW rat-
ing and distributed over the front and rear
axles so as not to exceed their axle capaci-
ties. Refer to "SPECIFICATIONS AND SER-
VICE DATA" for GVW and Axle capacity.

1-3 HOW TO HANDLE THE VEHICLE
6) How to Handle the vehicle(for DDC engine)
(1) IDLE SHUT DOWN function
1) Engine automatically stops after 5 minutes
passed when engine is idling for reducing
fuel consumption and air pollution
2) Restart engine for driving after engine has
stopped automatically
Caution
MTA0041
MTA0042
1. Limit idling time within 10% (1 hour approximately)
of during initial driving of 15 hours.
2. Unnecessary idling during initial operation could
damage electrical fuel injection system(ECU)
•3 minutes of engine warming-up is enough in
winter time.
(2) Cautions for engine abnormalities during driv-
ing
1) Check Engine indicator : indicates engine's
malfunction, power is limited to 70% of total
level automatically.
2) Stop Engine indicator : indicates serious prob-
lems on engine, power is limited to 40% of
total level, Move the truck to safe place within
the time before engine automatically stops
after 30 seconds of indication. Press the
switch within 25 seconds after indicator came
up for extending operation time as much as
30 seconds. (refer to page 45, "Engine di-
agnosis switch")

preheated automatically according to out-
door temperature(DE: for 20 sec., DV: for 6
ON min, or until coolant temp, rises to 25C).
ACC START This improves the engine condition.

Caution
1. Daewoo heavy trucks are equipped with the preheat-
ing and postheating systems designed to improve
engine starting and to reduce the generation of white
smoke.
2. With the starting key positioned "On", it is automati-
cally preheated according to the temperature of cool-
ant. In 0.3 second(in hot season) or 18 seconds(in cold
season), the preheating indicator lamp goes out, indi-
cating that preheating is complete.

controlled by turning the knob when the wiper
switch is in "INT" position.
Windshield washer switch
To let washer fluid spray on the windshield,
press and hold the center button of switch. And
the windshield wipers are simultaneously
operated for 2-3 cycles.
Exhaust brake switch
The exhaust brake system is designed to shut
off exhaust pipe when the engine brake is ap-
plied, resulting in assisting brake action. When
the switch lever is pushed downward, and clutch
and accelerator pedals are released, the indi-
cator lamp comes on showing that the ex-haust
brake is in operation. When the clutch and ac-
celerator pedals are depressed, the exhaust
brake stops working.
MTA0200 * In the case of 24ton dump truck, this opera-
tion is done by using the Jake Brake switch.
For detail, refer to "Jake brake switch" .
•Hazard warning flasher switch
When the right-hand lever is pushed upward,
all the turn signal lamps are made to flash

(1) Differential lock switch(FRT/RR)
In the case of two rear axle drive type vehicle, if
either rear axle falls in the mire to cause slip-
page, you must first stop your vehicle and then
place differential lock switch to "ON" position in
order to easily get out of the mire. The warning
buzzer keeps sounding all the while differential
lock is in operation.
MTS0733
(2) Differential lock switch(L/R)
If it is difficult to get your vehicle out of the mire
even by using the differential lock switch which
distributes power to both front and rear axles,
operate the differential lock switch(left/right). If
all the differential lock switches are energized
simultaneously, your vehicle will show a ten-
dency to travel straight. Be careful of this.
MTA0732
Tips for using differential lock system
* This system cannot be used if the wheels in
connection with the two rear axles are idled
simultaneously.
Caution
Do not exceed 30 seconds for one time use of this
system. If it is not possible to get out of the mire even by
using this system once or twice, do not use it any more.
Your vehicle requires towing. Continuous use of
differential lock system may cause defects to ring

The gauge indicates the engine coolant
temperature. If the gauge needle stands below
the red colored zone, it means that engine
coolant temperature is normal.
If the needle stands in "H"(overheating), stop
the vehicle and run the engine at a moderately
fast idle speed or put the gear in lower position
to reduce engine load. If the vehicle is operated
in abnormal condition, engine performance will
be reduced and fuel consumption will be

(3) Oil pressure gauge
This gauge indicates oil pressure in the engine

the normal condition.
Caution
If the gauge needle stands in the red zone, warn-
ing lamp comes on and alarm buzzer sounds. Im-
mediately stop the vehicle, check for unusual con-
ditions, run the engine at a moderately fast idle
speed to increase air pressure, then drive off.

The tachometer indicates the engine speed in revo-
lutions per minute(rpm) and red colored zone repre-
sents critical engine speed.
Excessively high engine rpm(red colored zone) may
cause damage to the engine. To drive economically,
keep the engine within 1,000-2,000(1,000-1,700:for
DDC engine) rpm.
