Alcohol can corrode car paint. Here are the relevant details: 1. Alcohol is an organic solvent, and frequent use of alcohol to wipe the car can damage the paint. After using alcohol to clean stains, it is essential to rinse the area immediately with water; otherwise, the paint surface may become corroded and lose its gloss. 2. When driving on the road, the vehicle often picks up small, visible or invisible sand particles. Directly wiping the car with alcohol can cause numerous scratches. Therefore, it is recommended to first rinse the car with clean water, then apply car wash soap, rinse again, and finally dry it. If there are stubborn stains, it is advisable to use a dedicated automotive adhesive remover.

How many seconds should the interval be for gear shifting in Subject 3?

For gear shifting in Subject 3, the time limit is one minute and thirty seconds. The driving distance using first and second gears must not exceed 500 meters. Speed and gear correspondence: In the Subject 3 test, start with first gear. After the vehicle starts moving, shift to second gear. When driving in second gear, accelerate to 20 km/h and then shift to third gear. When the speed exceeds 30 km/h, shift to fourth gear, and when reaching 40 km/h, shift to fifth gear (though fifth gear is generally not used in Subject 3). Method for turning: Halfway through the turn, accelerate to shift from second to third gear. After shifting to third gear, release the accelerator. Once the turn is completed, the computer will prompt to downshift to second gear (the action must be completed within five seconds). The computer will then prompt to upshift to third gear, again requiring the shift to be completed within five seconds. Test requirements: During the test, upon hearing the voice prompt "Please complete the gear shifting action," the candidate should adjust the gear to second gear, then sequentially upshift to fifth gear. In fifth gear, the speed must exceed 40 km/h, after which the gears should be sequentially downshifted back to second gear. Important notes: Ensure the gear matches the speed. Always observe the dashboard periodically. When passing through school zones, maintain third gear below 30 km/h; using fourth gear or exceeding 30 km/h will result in failure. When shifting gears, fully depress the clutch, engage the gear, release the clutch while accelerating, and avoid releasing the clutch too quickly to prevent vehicle jerking. Do not skip gears when upshifting, and avoid looking at the gear lever while shifting.
