Generally, after the first maintenance of a new car, the second maintenance should be done after driving another 5,000 kilometers, and so on, with maintenance every 5,000 kilometers. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. The purpose of car servicing is to keep the car clean, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate hidden dangers, prevent faults, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life. Car servicing is based on the rule that the technical condition of the car changes with the mileage driven, stipulating different levels of work items. According to the regulations of the Ministry of Transport, China's current car maintenance system is divided into daily maintenance, first-level maintenance, second-level maintenance, etc.

Can the clutch not be fully depressed during uphill parking?

The clutch needs to be fully depressed, otherwise the vehicle is prone to stalling. Here is an extended introduction about hill-start parking: 1. Slow start: When starting on a slope, slowly release the clutch pedal with your left foot until the vehicle vibrates slightly. Hold this position to confirm whether the vehicle has the tendency and power to move forward. Do not continue to lift the clutch pedal to prevent stalling. 2. Slow acceleration: Only when the vehicle starts to move forward should you completely release the handbrake with your right hand and gradually accelerate. When starting on a slope, if you don't give it gas, it's likely that the idle speed is insufficient to drive the vehicle uphill, causing it to stall.
