OFF means off. ON and OFF on machine switches represent the power-on and power-off states, respectively. They are not abbreviations but the full English words, where ON means on and OFF means off. Of course, some car switches may also be labeled with terms like headlight switches. Below is an introduction about OFF: 1. The OFF light in a car mainly refers to ESP-OFF. ESP stands for Electronic Stability Program, which is an active safety device designed to prevent the vehicle from skidding or losing control. If the ESP-OFF light comes on in your car, it means the vehicle's stability control system is either turned off or malfunctioning. Blue and green indicator lights on the dashboard indicate that the corresponding system is on or functioning normally, while yellow and red indicator lights indicate that the system is off or faulty. 2. If you accidentally press the ESP-OFF button in your car, simply press it again briefly to reactivate ESP. If the ESP-OFF light comes on due to a system malfunction, you should promptly take the car to a 4S shop for inspection. There are many reasons why the warning light may come on, such as wiring faults, sensor damage, incorrect signals from the electronic control unit, or a low battery.

What are the main components of engine oil?

Engine oil is primarily composed of base oil and additives. Base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its fundamental properties; additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of base oil performance, imparting certain new characteristics, making them an essential part of lubricating oil. The following is an introduction to engine oil: 1. Engine oil is the lubricating oil used in engines, consisting of base oil and additives. 2. As a type of machinery, engines have common requirements for lubricating oil similar to general machinery, such as appropriate viscosity, certain anti-oxidation, anti-wear, anti-corrosion, and viscosity-temperature properties. 3. The density of engine oil is approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), and it serves functions such as lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion prevention, and shock absorption.

How to Determine if Car Tire Pressure is Insufficient?

Car tire pressure can be checked through a tire pressure monitoring device or measured using a tire pressure gauge. According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard regulations and requirements, the recommended tire pressures for different types of tires are as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9bar; Maximum pressure: should not exceed 3.5bar. Hazards of excessive tire pressure: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overextends tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing vehicle load during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, they can easily penetrate the tire, causing internal cracks or blowouts that may lead to tire bursts.

How to Replace the Front Wheel with a Spare Tire on a Borgward BX7?

Here are the specific steps to replace the front wheel with a spare tire on a Borgward BX7: 1. First, park the car on a level and safe surface, activate the hazard lights, and engage the handbrake. After ensuring safety, place a triangular warning sign at an appropriate distance behind the vehicle. 2. Retrieve the spare tire, tire wrench, and jack. 3. Initially, loosen the wheel bolts in a crisscross pattern. 4. Then, position the jack under the chassis support and slowly raise the vehicle until the tire is slightly off the ground. Proceed to remove the bolts one by one in a diagonal sequence. 5. Further adjust the jack to lift the vehicle until the tire is completely off the ground, ensuring there's enough space to install the properly inflated spare tire. Remove the tire to be replaced and mount the spare tire. 6. After installing the tire, ensure the bolts are correctly positioned and tighten them in a diagonal pattern, but do not fully tighten them yet. Once the jack is lowered and the wheel is back on the ground, fully tighten the bolts.

Where is the handbrake of the Sylphy located?

The handbrake of the Sylphy is located next to the brake pedal and needs to be operated by foot. It is labeled with 'push-off,' functioning as both a handbrake and a footbrake—simply press down to engage the brake. The main features of the footbrake are as follows: 1. It is cost-effective while freeing up space in the center console. 2. It requires less effort to operate. How to use the foot-operated parking brake: 1. To release the footbrake when preparing to drive, use your right foot to press the brake pedal, then use your left foot to press the parking footbrake pedal all the way down. Release your left foot, and the parking footbrake pedal will pop back up to its free state. You can then press the accelerator pedal to drive. 2. After stopping the vehicle by pressing the brake pedal, use your left foot to press the footbrake pedal all the way down to lock the vehicle. The footbrake pedal will then be in its lowest position, and you can lift your left foot.
