If the car is not driven, charge it once every half month. People can stay in the car while charging an electric vehicle. Below is relevant information: 1. Electric vehicle charging methods: There are three types of charging methods for electric vehicles: portable charging box, AC charging pile, and DC charging pile. The portable charging box is simple and portable, but it has the lowest power among the three types of charging equipment, resulting in slower charging. The AC charging pile offers moderate charging speed and is suitable for home use, especially for the daytime driving and nighttime charging model. The DC charging pile is the most powerful type of charging equipment, with power ranging from tens of kW to over a hundred kW, thus requiring higher grid power and enabling faster charging. The DC charging pile connects to three-phase AC power, converting it into DC power to directly charge the high-voltage DC power battery of the electric vehicle. The higher the power of the DC charging pile, the faster the charging speed. 2. Electric vehicle charging precautions: Electric vehicle charging precautions include mastering the correct charging time; avoiding overcharging or over-discharging the battery; turning off the vehicle's power supply while charging; and preventing the charging plug from overheating. Pure electric vehicles take longer to replenish energy. Taking a typical sports model as an example, if a home charging pile is used, it takes nearly 8 hours to fully charge, while a fast charging pile takes about 40 minutes to charge up to 80%. Develop a habit of frequent charging and avoid waiting until the battery is too low. Both overcharging and over-discharging reduce the battery's lifespan. Any product using a battery should avoid "over-discharging," and pure electric vehicles are no exception. When charging the car, always turn off electrical devices such as the audio system and air conditioning, as simultaneous charging and power consumption accelerate battery wear and cause overheating. Loose 220V power plugs or charger output plugs, as well as oxidized contact surfaces, can cause the plug to overheat. Prolonged overheating may lead to short circuits or poor contact, damaging the charger and battery and causing unnecessary losses.

Will the car door lock automatically if not locked?

There are two scenarios where forgetting to lock the car door may result in automatic locking: 1) If the remote control was used to lock the car initially, but the unlock button was accidentally pressed without anyone actually opening the door, the car will automatically relock within a short predetermined time. 2) However, if someone has opened the door, the automatic relocking function will be disabled. Importantly, when the engine is turned off and the key is removed but the car isn't locked via remote, the doors won't automatically lock even after an extended period. Key points: 1) Active locking: Forgetting to lock a parked vehicle happens frequently, which poses theft risks for belongings inside and creates significant inconvenience. Normally, drivers must actively lock the car using the remote key after removing the key, cutting power, and closing doors, as most vehicles lack key signal distance detection capability for automatic locking. 2) Automatic locking: Vehicles with this feature typically have a small indentation, protrusion, or square pattern near the mechanical keyhole on the driver's door handle. This function greatly simplifies locking - with keys in a bag, simply touching the door handle upon exiting triggers automatic locking.

What Documents and Materials Are Required for Vehicle Registration Transfer?

Documents and materials required for vehicle registration transfer: The parties' ID card, household registration book, migration for family reunion (marriage certificate, divorce certificate, court judgment), migration for property purchase (property ownership registration certificate, purchase contract, original receipt), migration for points (labor contract, social security certificate, residence permit), migration for education (admission notice), and other relevant documents and materials. The details are as follows: 1. The following situations prohibit vehicle registration transfer: (1) Vehicles that failed the annual inspection in the current or previous year, or vehicles that have not undergone annual inspection, are not allowed to transfer out or in. (2) Vehicles within 2 years of reaching the scrapping conditions are not allowed to transfer registration. (3) Vehicles involved in unresolved traffic accidents, criminal or economic cases related to the owner, or vehicles whose ownership or usage nature does not match the records in the file, cannot transfer registration. 2. Proxy service: If you find it troublesome and don't want to handle it yourself, you can entrust a qualified local agency to handle it for you. The service fee is not very expensive. For a 100,000 yuan vehicle, it costs about 3,000 yuan.

What Materials Are Needed for 2021 Vehicle Inspection?

2021 vehicle inspection requires the original vehicle license, a copy of the compulsory traffic insurance, a photocopy of the ID card, and the vehicle itself. If it's a company vehicle, you also need to prepare the agent's information. Here is some relevant information: 1. Electronic Annual Inspection Labels: The electronic inspection certificate has the same effect as the paper certificate. Vehicles that have already received the electronic inspection certificate do not need to display the paper label, and traffic authorities will not penalize vehicles for not displaying (or affixing) the inspection label. The electronic inspection certificate can be downloaded and saved on your phone for easy presentation when offline. 2. Expanded Exemption Range for Private Vehicles and Optimized Inspection Cycle: In addition to the exemption for non-operational small and micro passenger vehicles with 6 seats or less within 6 years, non-operational small and micro passenger vehicles with 7 to 9 seats within 6 years are now also included in the exemption range. For non-operational small and micro passenger vehicles over 6 years but less than 10 years old, the inspection frequency has been adjusted from once a year to once every two years.

What are the two types of non-scheduled vehicle maintenance?

Non-scheduled vehicle maintenance is divided into break-in period maintenance and seasonal maintenance. China's vehicle maintenance system is classified into three categories: routine maintenance, scheduled maintenance, and non-scheduled maintenance. Scheduled maintenance is further divided into first-level, second-level, and third-level maintenance. More details about non-scheduled maintenance are as follows: 1. Vehicle break-in period: This refers to the initial mileage of a new vehicle or a vehicle after major repairs. During this initial usage phase, the friction surfaces of moving parts undergo mutual grinding, continuously improving fitting precision to smoothly transition to normal operating conditions. The service life, operational reliability, and fuel economy of a vehicle largely depend on the break-in process during its initial use. Therefore, the purpose of break-in period maintenance is to help the vehicle quickly adapt to various working conditions, significantly extend its service life, and reduce repair costs. 2. Seasonal maintenance: Changes in seasons and climate conditions inevitably affect vehicle operating conditions, impacting performance, service life, and fuel economy. To ensure reliable operation of vehicles in different regions and seasons, seasonal maintenance is performed before seasonal changes, combined with scheduled maintenance, to help vehicles smoothly adapt to regional and seasonal variations.

How Many Kilometers Should a Car's Spark Plugs Be Replaced?

Under normal maintenance conditions, spark plugs should be replaced every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. However, this may vary depending on the brand and engine type, so it is recommended to follow the vehicle's manual. You can refer to the following standards for maintenance replacement: platinum spark plugs should be replaced every 40,000 kilometers, ordinary nickel alloy spark plugs every 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Spark plugs are a crucial component of a gasoline engine's ignition system. They introduce high-voltage electricity into the combustion chamber and create a spark by jumping the electrode gap, thereby igniting the combustible air-fuel mixture in the cylinder. Spark plugs mainly consist of a terminal nut, insulator, terminal stud, center electrode, side electrode, and shell. The main types include: standard spark plugs, projected insulator spark plugs, electrode-type spark plugs, seat-type spark plugs, surface-gap spark plugs, and surface-discharge spark plugs.

Is the vehicle qualification certificate not returned after license plate registration?

It will not be returned to the vehicle owner. The vehicle credentials include the following 4 items: 1. Purchase invoice: The purchase invoice is the most important proof when buying a car and also serves as one of the documents required for vehicle registration. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the purchase invoice from the dealer and verify its validity; 2. Vehicle qualification certificate: The qualification certificate is another crucial document for the vehicle and is mandatory for registration. Only vehicles with a qualification certificate meet the national requirements for motor vehicle equipment quality and related standards; 3. Three-guarantee service card: According to regulations, dealers provide maintenance services within a certain period. If faults or damages are caused by manufacturing quality issues, the manufacturer's free services can be availed with the three-guarantee service card, though wear-prone parts like bulbs and rubber are not included; 4. Vehicle user manual: Users must operate the vehicle according to the instructions in the user manual. Damages caused by not following the manual's instructions are not covered by the manufacturer's three-guarantee. The user manual also specifies the vehicle's main technical parameters and essential technical data for maintenance and adjustments, serving as a reference text for repairs.
