Yes, they can be refueled, but it is recommended to use the pure electric mode first and then switch to the fuel mode. Here is some relevant information about plug-in hybrids: 1. Definition of Plug-in Hybrid: Plug-in hybrid vehicles can be directly charged, and in most cases, the electric mode can be prioritized. Once the battery is depleted, the fuel mode can be selected. These vehicles are similar to pure electric cars but come with an additional engine. 2. Precautions for Plug-in Hybrids: Properly manage charging time. During use, accurately determine the charging time based on actual conditions, considering usual usage frequency and driving distance to regulate charging frequency; Avoid direct sunlight: Electric vehicles must not be exposed to direct sunlight; Prevent overheating of plugs during charging. Loose 220-volt power plugs or charger output plugs, as well as oxidation of contact surfaces, can cause plug overheating. Prolonged overheating may lead to plug short circuits or poor contact, damaging the charger and battery; Regularly check tire pressure.

What does the small wrench symbol on the Honda Accord dashboard indicate?

When a wrench symbol appears on the vehicle dashboard, it indicates that the car requires maintenance. First Maintenance: Some manufacturers determine the first maintenance based on time or mileage. The exact timing for the first maintenance should be referred to in the vehicle's user manual or warranty manual. The first maintenance is crucial and is usually free, so it's important not to miss it to avoid affecting the car's third maintenance. Maintenance Items: Maintenance primarily includes replacing engine oil, oil filters, transmission fluid, spark plugs, cabin air filters, engine air filters, brake fluid, etc. However, not all items need to be replaced in every maintenance session; it depends on their service life. Additionally, maintenance involves inspecting and servicing dozens of items across multiple systems such as the engine, transmission, air conditioning system, steering system, braking system, suspension, body, and tires.

What are the reasons for the sudden failure of the Ford Edge air conditioning to cool?

Ford Edge car air conditioning not cooling reasons and solutions: Insufficient or too little refrigerant: A common reason for car air conditioning not cooling is insufficient or too little refrigerant, which is likely caused by minor leaks. It is necessary to replenish the refrigerant. Excessive refrigerant: Too much refrigerant can also cause the air conditioning not to cool. There is a required proportion of refrigerant volume in the air conditioning system. If the proportion is too high, it will affect heat dissipation. You can slowly release some from the low-pressure side maintenance port of the air conditioning system. Loose drive belt: If the drive belt is loose, the compressor will slip during operation, leading to a decrease in transmission efficiency, a drop in compressor speed, and a reduction in refrigerant compression delivery, resulting in the car air conditioning not cooling. If the compressor drive belt of the car air conditioning is too loose, it should be tightened.

What is the fuel tank capacity of Foton pickup trucks?

According to the manufacturer's model information, the safe fuel tank capacity of the Foton Sauvana pickup truck is 60 liters. Automobile fuel tank capacity: Generally, small cars have a fuel tank capacity of 35-45 liters, while medium-sized cars have a fuel tank capacity of about 55-75 liters. After filling up the fuel tank, the car can usually travel about 500 kilometers. The size of the fuel tank depends on the car's displacement and fuel consumption: larger fuel consumption means a larger fuel tank, and smaller fuel consumption means a smaller fuel tank. The design of automobile fuel tank capacity generally allows for a driving range of 400-600 kilometers. How to check the fuel tank capacity: Generally, the fuel level can be observed through the fuel gauge inside the car. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge on the dashboard usually has 5-6 segments, with each segment representing the remaining fuel capacity in the tank. It is recommended to refuel when there are only two segments left on the fuel gauge to avoid running out of gasoline while driving.
