It is not advisable to drive when the vehicle's tire pressure warning is activated. Here are the relevant details: The causes of a tire pressure warning include: 1. A punctured tire; 2. Excessive tire pressure; 3. Driving with low tire pressure for an extended period; 4. A malfunctioning tire pressure sensor; 5. Low tire pressure due to prolonged lack of inflation. The steps to address a tire pressure warning are: 1. Immediately reduce speed and avoid sharp steering or sudden braking; 2. Turn off the engine, wait for 2 minutes, and then restart the vehicle. Once the vehicle stabilizes, check the tire pressure value displayed on the dashboard; 3. While inflating or deflating the tires, observe the tire pressure warning light on the dashboard. Stop inflating when the light turns off, and release excess air if overinflated; 4. If the warning light remains on after adjustment, manually reset the tire pressure by pressing the set button on the vehicle's central console dashboard.

How to Use a Cigarette Lighter?

The usage method of the cigarette lighter: Press the cigarette lighter once to automatically heat it. After 5 to 8 seconds of heating, it will pop out automatically, and then you can light a cigarette. The cigarette lighter is a component found in all cars, designed to provide a convenient ignition source for drivers who smoke. The cigarette lighter's power supply is generally 12V DC, with the central elastic head as the positive pole and the side clips as the negative poles. It is directly connected to the car's battery, sharing the same current and power specifications as the battery. Common mistakes in using the cigarette lighter include: 1. Not unplugging external devices when starting the car; 2. Not unplugging external devices when turning off the engine; 3. Wiggling or inserting/removing external devices improperly during use, which can deform the plug's arc-shaped spring, leading to loose connections and poor conductivity (manifested as intermittent connections); 4. Frequently bumping the cigarette lighter plug while operating the car, causing it to become loose.

What is the M gear in an automatic transmission?

Automatic transmission M gear is the manual mode in an automatic transmission. By manually pushing the gear lever to M+ or M-, you send commands to the transmission computer to upshift or downshift. The computer then controls the transmission to shift gears as required, simulating the feeling of manual shifting. However, if the RPM is too high or too low, the protection program will automatically shift gears. The M gear can be used in the following situations: 1. Overtaking: Use M- to downshift, providing higher torque to quickly increase the car's speed in a short time; 2. Uphill: On uphill sections, use M- to downshift, as lower gears provide stronger engine power; 3. Downhill: Use M+ to shift to 2nd or 3rd gear, utilizing the engine's braking effect to slow the vehicle without relying entirely on the brakes, increasing driving safety; 4. High-speed sections: On highways, manually use M+ to upshift to higher gears; 5. Snowy or icy roads: Adjust to 2nd gear using M+ to reduce wheel slippage.

How to Open a Car Hood?

Method to open a car hood: For most vehicle models, there is a hood release lever located on the left side of the driver's seat. Pull this lever by hand, and upon hearing a "click" sound, the hood will pop open slightly, revealing a gap. Insert your hand into the gap, release the auxiliary hood latch handle, and lift the hood upwards. Car hoods are typically made from rubber foam and aluminum foil materials, which help reduce engine noise while simultaneously isolating the heat generated during engine operation. This effectively protects the paint on the hood's surface and prevents aging. Functions of a car hood: 1. Airflow guidance; 2. Protection for the engine and surrounding pipeline fittings; 3. Aesthetic appeal; 4. Assistance in driving visibility; 5. Prevention of accidents.

What is the normal tire pressure for cars in summer?

In summer, the normal tire pressure for cars is between 2.2bar and 2.4bar. As the temperature and road surface temperature rise, the tire pressure can easily increase during high-speed or long-distance driving. Excessive tire pressure reduces the contact area between the tire and the ground, leading to a significant increase in pressure and wear per unit area, which can easily cause brake failure and damage the vehicle's suspension system. Summer car tire maintenance tips: 1. Inspect the vehicle tires to check for stones or foreign objects in the tire grooves, and examine the tire sidewalls for scratches or punctures that may expose the cords; 2. Check the tire pressure to ensure it is within the standard range, neither too high nor too low; 3. For vehicles frequently driven long distances or at high speeds, it is necessary to rotate the tires regularly.
