After crystal coating, avoid exposing the car to rain for 24 hours, do not wipe the paint surface for three days, and refrain from washing the car for one week. Below are the specific details about vehicle crystal coating: Consequences of washing the car too soon after coating: Do not rinse the vehicle within one week after crystal coating to prevent damage to the paint surface. The coating fully solidifies after 24 hours: The crystal coating agent takes 24 hours to fully bond with the car paint, forming the final protective crystal layer. A restoration treatment is needed after coating: 4 to 6 months after crystal coating, visit a detailing shop for paint purification and restoration to enhance the coating's effectiveness and prolong its durability. Avoid touching the paint surface: After crystal coating, try not to touch the paint surface to avoid affecting the final coating results.

What are the operation steps for parallel parking?

Align the center of your chest with the left side of the rightmost marking line ahead, and drive forward while maintaining this alignment. Turn the steering wheel all the way to the right, and when you see in the mirror that the rear of the car just covers the corner of the parking space, straighten the steering wheel. When the rear wheels just run over the marking line, immediately turn the steering wheel all the way to the left. When you feel the car body is straight, press the clutch and brake to stop. Turn on the left turn signal, press the clutch, shift to first gear, and slowly drive the car out. Parallel parking is completed.

What are the solutions for failing emission tests?

Repair at a service center by replacing and adjusting all necessary components before rechecking the emissions. Address the fuel injectors. If the fuel injectors are faulty, the catalytic converter needs to be replaced. Rinse the exhaust pipe with water to temporarily alter the emissions. Clean the air filter and fuel injectors to ensure proper functioning of the components. Delay the ignition timing to significantly reduce the NO (nitric oxide) content in the exhaust.

How to Clean Dirty Fabric Seats?

Vigorously beat them like you would when airing out a quilt. Before use, shake the seat cushions a few times and lightly pat them, then use a damp towel to remove the slight surface dust generated during production. When the fabric seats are not very dirty, you can choose to brush them with a long-haired brush or vacuum them. Dip a clean cloth in a small amount of neutral detergent and wipe the entire surface of the seat while it is half-dry and half-wet.

How to Steer When the Rear of the Car Deviates to the Right?

When the vehicle moves to the point where the lower edge of the left rearview mirror touches the control line, turn the steering wheel fully to the right. After turning fully to the right, check the left rearview mirror. When the corner of the parking space appears in the left rearview mirror, straighten the steering wheel. After straightening the steering wheel, reverse until the left front door handle is over the left parking line, then turn the steering wheel fully to the right again. When the lower edge of the left rearview mirror housing is over the front line of the parking space, the rear of the car should be 30 cm away. At this point, you can stop the car.
