You can still get maintenance at a 4S shop even without the maintenance manual, as the vehicle information is backed up in the 4S shop's system when you purchase the car, and maintenance records are also kept electronically. The maintenance manual is usually a small booklet with pages for recording maintenance history. When buying a new car, it is typically provided along with the vehicle's user manual and other documents. For the first maintenance, you need to bring the maintenance manual, which clearly states the car's warranty period, warranty for wear-and-tear parts, etc. Maintenance Precautions: Avoid running the engine for long periods in an unventilated garage. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, and prolonged exposure to low concentrations of this gas can cause headaches, rapid breathing, nausea, vomiting, weakness, dizziness, confusion, and even brain damage. If you must start the engine in a garage, keep the door open or turn on the ventilation system to expel the exhaust. Even when working outdoors, avoid staying near the exhaust pipe of a running engine for extended periods. Never siphon fuel with your mouth. Gasoline is not only flammable and explosive but also toxic, especially leaded gasoline, which can harm the nervous system, digestive tract, and kidneys. Additionally, gasoline contains high levels of sulfides, and hydrogen sulfide is toxic. Ingesting gasoline can lead to poisoning or death. If accidentally ingested, induce vomiting and seek immediate medical attention.

What does the vehicle file number mean?

The main purpose is to establish a driver information management system for convenient querying. Here are the relevant details: 1.

Unique number: The driver's license file number is a unique number generated by the traffic police department to distinguish driver's licenses, equivalent to an ID card.

What kind of water should be added when the car radiator runs out of water?

Automobile radiators should be filled with coolant, and the relevant explanations are as follows: 1. Composition of coolant: The main components of coolant are water, antifreeze, rust inhibitor, and foam inhibitor. 2. Additional notes: Antifreeze is used to prevent the car coolant from freezing and expanding, which could cause the engine cooling water passages to rupture. Different regions have varying requirements for the antifreeze properties of the coolant due to differences in temperature. Rust inhibitor is used to prevent the formation of rust. Foam inhibitor suppresses the formation of foam under the water pump impeller, as excessive foam can reduce the cooling efficiency of the coolant. Coolant cannot be replaced with water. In special circumstances where water must be added for replenishment, soft water should be used, as hard water can cause scale buildup.
