I've been driving a classic Focus for several years, and adjusting the time is a step-by-step process. First, turn the car key to the ON position without starting the engine, and the dashboard will light up. Look at the small button area on the right side of the steering wheel, press and hold the MENU or INFO button for a few seconds, and the menu will pop up. Use the navigation keys to select the clock setting option, then press the up and down keys to adjust the hour, and the left and right keys to adjust the minutes. After confirming, exit the menu and you're done. Remember not to operate while driving, as it's easy to get distracted and cause an accident. Inaccurate time can affect the synchronization of in-car electronics, such as incorrect navigation system displays, so I recommend checking it before each daylight saving time adjustment to develop a habit. If you accidentally skip it, try going back to the bottom of the menu and re-entering a few times; generally, it won't damage the system. Keeping the time accurate regularly ensures more accurate driving records, which is especially crucial for long-distance trips.

Is it mandatory to obtain a temporary license plate on the same day when purchasing a new car?

Purchasing a new car does not require obtaining a temporary license plate on the same day. You can directly register the vehicle as long as you have the certificate of conformity. Here are some important notes about temporary license plates: 1. Temporary license plates have an expiration period, typically around 7 days. When picking up the car, some 4S dealerships can assist you in printing a temporary license plate on-site, while others cannot, requiring you to visit the local vehicle management office to obtain one. 2. Pay attention to the driving area specified on the temporary license plate. If the temporary plate is only valid within the province, you must not drive out of the province. If caught by traffic police outside the permitted area, you will face point deductions and fines. 3. On the day before the temporary license plate expires, you must either apply for a new temporary plate or visit the vehicle management office to register for a permanent license plate. Otherwise, driving with an expired temporary plate will be considered unlicensed driving, resulting in point deductions and fines.

Why does the motorcycle R model fail to start and only make a sound?

Motorcycle R model fails to start and only makes a sound due to the following reasons: Fuel system malfunction: Mainly caused by fuel switch (no fuel), fuel filter (clogged), carburetor (no fuel or overly rich mixture), or bent fuel pipe issues. Electrical circuit malfunction: Short circuit in the vehicle's electrical components (such as ignition switch, ignition coil, ignition module, magneto, etc.), or disconnection caused by loose wiring harness connectors. Cylinder malfunction: Insufficient cylinder compression, improper air intake resistance of the air filter element, or engine intake/exhaust system issues. Fuel system troubleshooting: First, disconnect the fuel pipe under the fuel tank and connect it to a mineral water bottle. If there is a continuous flow of fuel, the tank is not blocked. If blocked, remove the entire tank, drain the fuel, rinse with a high-pressure water gun, and let it air dry for several days.
