New Santana can run 80-100 kilometers after the fuel tank warning light comes on. Here are the meanings and solutions when the fuel tank light comes on: Meanings of the fuel tank light: If the fuel tank light comes on, the owner does not need to worry too much, because there is still some remaining fuel in the tank at this time, which can ensure that the car can drive safely for a certain distance. In fact, the fuel tank light mainly reminds the driver that the vehicle needs to be refueled, so find the nearest gas station as soon as possible. Solutions for fuel gauge warning: When the owner drives out and encounters the fuel gauge warning, try to reduce fuel consumption. At this time, turn off the air conditioner and the car's power-consuming equipment, so that the car can run with the lowest power consumption, and at the same time, keep the car running at a constant speed. Of course, the most effective way to avoid running out of fuel is to observe how much fuel is left in the tank before going on a long trip. If it is not enough, please go to the gas station to refuel immediately.

As someone who's driven a new Santana for eight years, I'm quite the authority on this. When the fuel light comes on, there's roughly 6-7 liters left in the tank. With a combined fuel consumption of 6L/100km, you might squeeze out just over 100km at most. But never trust that maximum range - last time I tried pushing it to reach a service area after the light came on, the engine suddenly cut out during a downhill slope and nearly caused an accident. Now I always carry a fuel canister and refuel within 30km after the light appears. Experienced drivers know - the fuel pump relies on gasoline for cooling. Driving long distances with low fuel levels is terrible for your car, and replacing a fuel pump costs ten times more than filling up your tank.

Can You Charge a New Energy Vehicle on Rainy Days?

You can charge on rainy days. Here is the relevant information: 1. Charging Port Standards: Manufacturers have strict standards for charging components and interfaces, generally achieving IPX6-IPX7 waterproof ratings. This means that in light rain, there will be no damage to components or safety issues. 2. Parking Position: When parking, try to choose a higher ground position. If parked in a low-lying area, prolonged water accumulation may cause the battery or charging port to be submerged in water. During charging, check the charging gun to ensure there is no accumulated water or debris inside, and that the charging gun and port are in full contact for proper charging.

Are People Who Pass the Driving Test on Their First Try Smart?

Passing the driving test on the first attempt indicates that the student has obtained their driver's license through their own efforts, but it does not necessarily mean they are smart. Some 'less smart' students also achieve their license through persistence, which can be considered 'smarter' than those who fail multiple times. Here are some key points to note: 1. Analyze Mistakes: After failing the test, the first thing to do is to identify where the mistakes were made—whether it was improper operation, lack of technical skill, or mishandled details. 2. Fill the Gaps: Failing suggests that skills are not yet proficient. Study each operational step thoroughly, memorize them, and avoid rushing during critical moments. Whether the test is passed or failed, learn from each experience to gain valuable insights.

What is the reason why the Ford Mondeo air conditioner is not cooling and only blowing natural air?

The new Mondeo is equipped with automatic air conditioning. To make the air conditioner blow cold air, you must turn on the AC and set the temperature lower than the outdoor temperature. Because the initial temperature inside the car is the same as the outdoor temperature, if the air conditioning is set to a temperature higher than the outdoor temperature, it will blow hot air. More details about the Ford Mondeo are as follows: 1. Detail one: The Ford Mondeo is a flagship model of Changan Ford, featuring multiple innovative technologies and comprehensive improvements in premium quality, powertrain, and safety performance. 2. Detail two: After the facelift of the 2017 Mondeo, the body dimensions changed compared to the older model, becoming longer and lower. Its length is 4873mm, width is 1852mm, height is 1470mm, and wheelbase is 2850mm. Its wheelbase also offers a certain advantage among mid-sized cars.

What are the three wires of a car generator?

The three wires of a car generator are the excitation wire (F-level), ground wire, and neutral wire (N-level). Below is a detailed introduction about car engines: 1. Overview: A car engine is the device that provides power to the car, determining its power, economy, stability, and environmental performance. Depending on the power source, car engines can be divided into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrids, among others. 2. Others: Common gasoline and diesel engines are both reciprocating piston internal combustion engines, capable of converting the chemical energy of fuel into the mechanical energy of piston movement and outputting power externally. Gasoline engines have high rotational speeds, are lightweight, produce less noise, are easy to start, and have low manufacturing costs. Diesel engines have a high compression ratio, excellent thermal efficiency, and better economic and emission performance than gasoline engines.
