After the car maintenance reminder appears, you can still drive approximately 2,000 kilometers without affecting normal driving safety. However, this maintenance reminder indicates that the vehicle is nearing its scheduled maintenance time, and it is recommended to promptly schedule a maintenance appointment with the 4S dealership. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, replenishing, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain components of the vehicle, also known as vehicle servicing. Modern car maintenance primarily includes servicing the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, and more. The purpose of car maintenance is to maintain the vehicle's cleanliness, eliminate potential hazards, and prevent malfunctions.

What happens if too much refrigerant is added to a car's air conditioning system?

Adding too much refrigerant to a car's air conditioning system will increase the pressure in the system. When the air conditioning control system detects excessive pressure, it will frequently cut off the compressor's operation, resulting in poor cooling performance. Additionally, the consistently high pressure in the air conditioning pipes can lead to damage to the system's components. Below is a detailed introduction about adding refrigerant to the air conditioning system: Function of refrigerant: The role of adding refrigerant to the air conditioning system is to provide cooling. Only by serving as a refrigerant in the air conditioning system can it effectively control the indoor temperature. Cooling principle: The air conditioning compressor primarily draws gaseous Freon from the evaporator into the main unit. After compression, it converts into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas, which is then sent to the condenser through the expansion valve. After dissipating heat, it becomes a low-temperature, high-pressure liquid. Although the air conditioner itself blows out hot air, the Freon passes through the capillary tube and flows into the evaporator for throttling. The space expands, and the pressure decreases, converting it into cold air, which is why the air conditioner blows out cool air. Frequency of adding refrigerant: During the operation and use of the air conditioning system, if the Freon becomes insufficient or leaks, even if other components of the air conditioner are functioning normally, the system will not be able to provide cooling or heating. However, as long as the air conditioning system is well-sealed, no matter how long it has been used, there is no need to add Freon, and the cooling and heating performance can remain excellent. If it is necessary to add Freon to the air conditioning system, it should only be done when there is a shortage or leakage of Freon.

Is the Driver's License Scoring Reset Time at 0:00?

Yes, the scoring reset time starts at 0:00 on the date the driver's license was issued. At that moment, the driver's license begins a new scoring cycle. Legal Basis: Article 68 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" states that if a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 penalty points within one scoring cycle, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall detain their motor vehicle driver's license. The motor vehicle driver shall, within 15 days, attend a seven-day study session on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge at the traffic management department of the public security organ where the driver's license was issued or where the violation occurred. After completing the study, the vehicle management office shall conduct an examination on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within 20 days. If the examination is passed, the penalty points will be cleared, and the motor vehicle driver's license will be returned; if the examination is not passed, the driver must continue to study and retake the examination. If the driver refuses to attend the study or take the examination, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall announce the suspension of their motor vehicle driver's license. If a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 penalty points or more twice within one scoring cycle, or accumulates 24 penalty points or more, the vehicle management office shall also conduct a road driving skills test within 10 days after the driver passes the examination on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. The road driving skills test shall be conducted according to the highest permissible vehicle type indicated on the driver's license.

Can a New Electric Vehicle Be Charged When It Has 2 Bars of Battery Left?

When a new electric vehicle has 2 bars of battery left, it can be considered for charging. In daily use of electric vehicles, it is important to avoid over-discharging the battery. This is because when the battery is depleted, the internal separators can easily be damaged, shortening its lifespan. If the electric vehicle is not used for a long time, the battery may also experience internal leakage, leading to power loss. Therefore, the battery should be fully charged before storage and then recharged every 20 days to a month to prevent damage. When charging an electric vehicle, it is crucial to correctly manage the charging time, as explained below: Accurately determine the charging time based on actual usage, considering factors like frequency of use and distance traveled. Both overcharging and insufficient charging can reduce the battery's lifespan. Typically, the average charging time for a battery is around 10 hours. If the battery temperature exceeds 65°C during charging, the process should be stopped.
