Jianghuai Refine requires between two to three bottles of refrigerant. Below is more information about Jianghuai Refine: 1. The air conditioning cooling in Refine is controlled by the AC switch on the air conditioning control panel. When the AC switch is turned on, the compressor's electromagnetic clutch engages, and the compressor starts working: the compressor compresses the refrigerant, turning it into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas. This gas then travels to the condenser at the front of the vehicle, where it dissipates heat to the air and condenses into a high-pressure liquid. After passing through the receiver-drier for filtration and drying, it reaches the expansion valve, where it is throttled and depressurized into a low-pressure liquid. Finally, it reaches the evaporator inside the vehicle cabin, where it evaporates and absorbs heat, thereby achieving cooling. Additionally, the refrigerant can be initially filled with two bottles, and the decision to add more can be based on the cooling effect. 2. Jianghuai Refine offers three highly impactful model combinations: the flagship new product of the Refine series, the Refine Xianghe, which extends the high-end MPV lineup; the Refine Colorful Journey, which brings a new level of practicality and reliability for business and commercial use; and the Refine Shuttle series, which drives revolutionary upgrades in the light passenger vehicle market.

Having been in the car repair scene for a while, I know that Jianghuai Refine usually requires about 500 grams of R134a refrigerant, but it depends on the specific model and year. Older models might need 600 grams, while newer ones may require less. Always check the engine compartment label or the owner's manual for the exact specification. Don't attempt to add it yourself blindly—get a professional to measure it with a pressure gauge. Adding the wrong amount can lead to poor AC cooling and damage the compressor. Also, checking for refrigerant leaks before topping up is crucial to avoid waste. Regular maintenance of the AC system, like cleaning the condenser of dust, can save you a lot of hassle.

My JAC Refine has been running for five years. Last year, the air conditioning wasn't cooling properly, so I took it to the shop where the technician added 450 grams of refrigerant. Later, I checked the manual which recommends 400-550 grams. The required amount varies significantly between different models, so never attempt to do it yourself—adding the wrong amount can cause unstable pressure and potentially lead to dangerous leaks. It's advisable to regularly check the refrigerant level and top it up promptly if it's low, otherwise driving in summer can be really uncomfortable.

The standard refrigerant charge for Jianghuai Refine is approximately 500 grams of R134a, but it must be performed by a technician. They use professional pressure-measuring instruments to ensure accuracy. Overcharging increases pressure and damages components, while insufficient charge leads to poor cooling and reduced comfort. Always check the pipeline for leaks before charging, otherwise the effort is wasted. Performing air conditioning maintenance every two years can prevent malfunctions.

What are the methods to distinguish between good and bad batteries?

Methods to distinguish between good and bad batteries are: 1. Inspect the appearance: Check if the battery casing is bulging, leaking, has broken separators, or corroded terminals. If these signs are present, it indicates the battery is dead; 2. Test the voltage: After charging for two hours, measure the voltage of individual battery cells every 20 minutes. If the voltage is below 13, it indicates a problem. During discharge, test every 10 minutes in three intervals. If the discharge time is faster than other batteries and the voltage drops below 10V, the battery is faulty; 3. Check for water loss and blackening: After charging the battery for 36 hours, if the charger's red light remains on, it indicates severe water loss. Open the battery's top cover to reveal six round holes. Check the color of the electrolyte in each hole. If it appears black, it means the lead powder from the plates has fallen off, indicating the battery is dead.

What Documents Are Required to Drive with Temporary License Plates?

Documents required to drive with temporary license plates include: the purchaser's ID card, vehicle purchase invoice, compulsory traffic insurance policy, and vehicle factory certificate. Temporary license plates can be categorized into: 1. Temporary plates for administrative jurisdiction areas; 2. Temporary plates for cross-administrative jurisdiction areas; 3. Temporary plates for testing purposes; 4. Temporary plates for special-type motor vehicles. Temporary license plates are paper motor vehicle plates that permit temporary road use, also known as temporary driving plates. Conditions for applying for temporary plates: 1. Driving the vehicle from the place of purchase to the place of use; 2. Vehicle transfer with official plates already surrendered; 3. New vehicles without official plates in the local area needing to travel elsewhere for modifications; 4. Purchasing a vehicle locally to drive elsewhere; 5. Needing temporary trial use before fixing vehicle registration.

How to Use Car Air Conditioning Properly?

Car air conditioning should be used properly as follows: 1. Choose an appropriate temperature setting; 2. Do not immediately activate the internal circulation when entering the car in summer; 3. Avoid running the air conditioning for extended periods; 4. Do not adjust the air vent direction arbitrarily; 5. Use the air conditioning in a fully enclosed state; 6. Avoid resting or sleeping for long periods in a stationary car with the air conditioning on. The functions of car air conditioning are: 1. To adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and airflow inside the cabin to an optimal state; 2. To provide a comfortable environment for passengers, reducing travel fatigue; 3. To create favorable working conditions for the driver, ensuring driving safety.

What are the types of automotive body structures?

Automotive body structures are divided into: body-on-frame, semi-monocoque, and monocoque. Body-on-frame refers to a vehicle with a rigid frame, also known as a chassis frame, where the frame and body are flexibly connected via springs or rubber pads. The engine, part of the transmission system, and body assembly components are mounted on the frame via suspension systems. Monocoque refers to a structure where the front end, side panels, rear end, floor panel, engine, front and rear suspension, and part of the transmission system are assembled onto the body, with the body load transmitted to the wheels via the suspension system. Semi-monocoque body is where the body and frame are rigidly connected via bolts, rivets, or welding, with the body bearing part of the frame's load.
