When using ETC on highways, there is no need to turn on the car's Bluetooth or mobile phone Bluetooth. The ETC junction box installed in our vehicles has a short-range communication response system inside, which automatically communicates with sensors on the road, and our vehicles and mobile phones do not need to turn on Bluetooth. ETC is currently provided by 8 domestic manufacturers, and some ETC terminals can only be installed via mobile Bluetooth during installation, but Bluetooth does not need to be turned on during use. ETC is the abbreviation for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply for ETC, you need to provide the original and photocopy of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and vehicle registration certificate. If the application is not made by the owner, the agent's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle registration certificate should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp; a bank card for deducting highway tolls; the applicant must be between 18 and 60 years old; the vehicle must be registered under the applicant's name. Documents required for company vehicles: Introduction letter from the vehicle owner (with official seal); photocopy of the organization code certificate or business license (with official seal); original ID card of the agent; original vehicle registration certificate; the vehicle for which ETC is to be applied. How ETC works: The on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield communicates with the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, and uses computer networking technology to settle accounts with the bank in the background, allowing the vehicle to pay highway or bridge tolls without stopping when passing through highway or bridge toll stations. Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: eliminates the hassle of queuing and waiting; Green and environmentally friendly: green and low-carbon, vehicles passing through toll stations without stopping can reduce noise and exhaust emissions and pollution; Cost-saving: reduces costs, decreases the frequency of vehicle starts and stops, reduces wear and fuel consumption, and users can enjoy toll discounts; Improved efficiency: ETC lanes can theoretically increase traffic efficiency by 2-3 times or more, making traditional ETC updates faster and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous.

Is the Honda CM300 an Imported Model?

Honda CM300 is not imported but domestically produced. It is a practical and recreational model suitable for daily commuting and light motorcycle touring. Below are the pros and cons of the Honda CM300: Pros: Due to its displacement, the CM300 has a compact design with a seat height of only 690mm. Although the footpegs are positioned forward, the riding posture is very natural, and the handlebars are not too wide, making it highly accessible for riders of various heights. The gear shifting is precise, and with the assistance of a slipper clutch, the shifting process is smooth as silk. The precise gear engagement feedback adds a sense of premium quality. Even finding neutral is effortless, unlike the common vague gear issues seen in some domestic models. The CM300 has a relatively low center of gravity, making it stable and agile to ride. With a curb weight of 170kg, the bike responds quickly to shifts in body weight, making it comfortable for slight leans in corners. Cons: The CM300's instrument panel does not display engine RPM. Due to its displacement and design style, the CM300's engine appears somewhat understated, and the engine bay lacks a full, robust look. The fuel tank capacity is 11.2L, which is on the smaller side among its peers. Some weld points on the CM300 appear less refined.

Are All Trucks Manual Transmission?

Trucks are not all manual transmission; there are also automatic transmission trucks. Below is a comparison between automatic and manual transmission trucks: 1. Lower Cost: Manual transmission trucks have slightly lower engine RPM, direct power transmission, and the ability to coast in neutral, making them more efficient than automatic transmission trucks, saving a significant amount of fuel and reducing expenses. 2. Greater Flexibility: Due to diverse terrains, long-distance travel involves not only cities and highways but also various complex terrains like mountains, which demand higher flexibility from trucks. Automatic transmission trucks, with their automatic gearbox mode, require reaching a certain RPM to shift gears, which might result in insufficient power during vehicle start-up and climbing slopes.

What is the most fuel-efficient temperature setting for car air conditioning?

Setting the car air conditioning to the 4th gear is the most fuel-efficient. Here is the relevant information: 1. Fan speed knob: The fan speed knob only adjusts the speed of the fan, and the fan runs on electricity. For a normal car, once the engine starts, the generator is always in operation. Therefore, it does not affect fuel consumption. 2. Function of the red-blue knob: It controls the proportion of cold and hot air intake valves. Turning it to the red side opens the hot air intake valve, while turning it to the blue side opens the cold air intake valve. This function is similar to the mixing valve of a household water heater. The rotary knob should also be connected to a time-delay relay.

What does yielding in oncoming traffic mean?

Yielding in oncoming traffic means that when vehicles meet, one must stop to let the other vehicle pass first. Below is extended information on oncoming traffic techniques: 1. Observe surrounding vehicle conditions: This includes assessing the type, speed, and load of the oncoming vehicle, the width and condition of the road ahead, the presence of pedestrians and other vehicles, parked cars, and obstacles. 2. Estimate safe distance: By observing and comparing, estimate the approximate positions of both vehicles when they meet, the road space occupied, to leave an appropriate lateral safety gap. 3. Reduce speed: Slow down when encountering oncoming traffic. If conditions are poor as you approach the meeting point, further control your speed. Do not blindly proceed with the meeting; if necessary, stop first to achieve a smooth passage for both vehicles.

Is the Ford 8AT Transmission Durable?

Ford's AT transmission was developed in collaboration with General Motors, making the reliability and stability of the Ford 8AT transmission quite impressive. Below are the advantages of the Ford 8AT transmission: 1. Lower Fuel Consumption: The increased number of gears allows for a closer gear ratio, enabling the vehicle to operate in more optimal gears, reducing engine RPM, and thereby lowering fuel consumption. 2. Faster Acceleration: The 8-speed automatic transmission, with its higher overall gear ratio and additional gears, improves acceleration performance. 3. Higher Torque Capacity: The 8-speed automatic transmission combines lightweight components with an innovative gearset design. The addition of two extra gears allows for greater torque transmission while maintaining fewer components and unchanged weight.

How to Fix a Jack That Won't Lift?

A jack that won't lift may have the following situations: 1. Insufficient hydraulic oil: The hydraulic oil inside the hydraulic jack is too little to meet the usage standard. Check if there is enough hydraulic oil for safe operation before use. 2. Damaged sealing ring: The sealing ring of the hydraulic jack is damaged, causing oil leakage. Inspect the sealing ring carefully before use. 3. Excessive tonnage: The tonnage of the electric hydraulic jack is too large, and the stressed oil chamber exceeds the load of the seal, resulting in leakage. 4. Damaged hydraulic cylinder wall: Rust spots or peeling appear on the inner wall of the hydraulic cylinder of the jack, affecting the sealing degree. Check the inner wall of the hydraulic cylinder before use.
