After changing the engine oil, it is necessary to gently step on the gas. Replacing the Oil Filter: Replace the oil filter and fuel filter. This can prevent impurities from mixing in during the use of the internal combustion engine and avoid oil passage blockages. Generally, semi-synthetic oil should be changed every 5,000-8,000 kilometers, synthetic oil every 8,000-10,000 kilometers, and mineral oil should not exceed 5,000 kilometers. Replacing the Air Filter: Replace the air filter. If it wasn't changed during the 10,000-kilometer maintenance, it must be replaced at the 20,000-kilometer maintenance. The air filter's function is to block dust particles from being inhaled during the engine's intake process. If it was changed at 10,000 kilometers, it can be cleaned. Checking the Brake Pads: Check the car's brake pads for severe wear or oil contamination. Brake pads are generally replaced every 30,000-50,000 kilometers. At 20,000 kilometers, check them and ask the mechanic how much longer they can be used. If the brakes fail, it can lead to serious consequences and is extremely unsafe.

How to Fold Manual Rearview Mirrors?

Methods for folding manual rearview mirrors: 1. Hold the base of the rearview mirror with one hand and push the mirror backward with the other hand. 2. Apply force to fold the manual rearview mirror backward, but avoid using excessive force. Lift it slightly upward. If you are unable to do it yourself, it is recommended to have someone with experience handle it to avoid unnecessary damage. 3. Adjusting the left rearview mirror: When adjusting the left rearview mirror vertically, position the distant horizon at the center. For left and right positioning, adjust it so that the car body occupies one-fourth of the mirror's surface. 4. The central rearview mirror helps in maintaining a proper distance. Adjust the left and right positions so that the left edge of the mirror just cuts off the right ear of your reflection in the mirror.

At what distance should you switch to low beam when facing oncoming vehicles?

When driving at night, you should switch to low beam when the distance to the oncoming vehicle is within 150 meters. Here is some relevant information about adjusting car lights: 1. Adjustment of low beam: The adjustment of vehicle lights usually involves the left-right and height alignment of the low beam. This can be done using the knobs located at the rear of the headlight assembly, and car owners can adjust the lights themselves with the appropriate tools. 2. Headlight adjustment: Lift the engine hood and locate the adjustment knobs at the rear of the headlight assembly. Use the corresponding tools to make adjustments. Before adjusting, determine whether the knob controls left-right or up-down alignment. Park the vehicle directly facing a wall at a distance of about 10 meters, observe the height of the left and right lights, and use tape or other markers for measurement and comparison if necessary, then proceed with the adjustment.

Will Alcohol Left in a Car Spontaneously Combust in Summer?

Leaving alcohol in a car during summer can lead to spontaneous combustion, which is extremely dangerous. Here are relevant details about alcohol: 1. Ignition Point: Medical alcohol with a concentration of 75% has an ignition point of 20 degrees Celsius. During summer, outdoor temperatures at noon can exceed 40 degrees Celsius, and if a car is parked outdoors under direct sunlight, the interior temperature can reach over 50 degrees Celsius, making it highly susceptible to spontaneous combustion and explosion of alcohol. Alcohol left in a car under direct sunlight can explode. 2. Risk of Explosion: Alcohol is a flammable and explosive substance. In a sealed car compartment exposed to sunlight, temperatures can soar to 50-60 degrees Celsius. Without air circulation, encountering an open flame or flammable materials (such as a lit cigarette) can trigger an explosion. If stored in a glass container, sunlight can create a magnifying glass effect, focusing light and igniting the alcohol, which is highly likely to cause an explosion.
