The steering wheel typically rotates 540-630 degrees from the center position to one side, corresponding to a wheel turn of approximately 40-42 degrees. For every 13-16 degrees of steering wheel rotation, the wheel turns by 1 degree. One full rotation of the steering wheel results in about 25 degrees of wheel turn. When the car's steering tires and the body are perfectly aligned in a straight line, the steering wheel is at 360°, while the steering tires are at 45° because the steering tires can only turn up to 45° to either side. Steering wheel techniques: For a left turn, first activate the left turn signal, use your left hand to turn the steering wheel to the left while your right hand assists in pushing it leftward. After completing the turn, use your right hand to turn the steering wheel back to the right to straighten the vehicle's direction. For a right turn, first activate the right turn signal, use your right hand to turn the steering wheel to the right while your left hand assists in pushing it rightward. After completing the turn, use your left hand to turn the steering wheel back to the left to straighten the vehicle's direction. The key to handling continuous curves is to reduce speed. Before entering a curve, you can lean slightly to the right; if turning right, you can lean slightly to the left. The exact number of steering wheel rotations depends on the actual situation.

What are the precautions for using airbags?

The precautions for using airbags are: 1. When the car is equipped with front dual airbags, do not allow children to sit in the front row or place a child seat in this position; 2. Do not hang decorations on the rearview mirror inside the front windshield, as the decorations may collide and fly toward the occupants when the airbag deploys, causing unnecessary injuries; 3. Do not place hard or sharp objects between the airbag and the occupants or on the marked areas outside the airbag, otherwise, when the airbag deploys, the strong impact force may press against the occupants' bodies. The airbag system is a passive safety (vehicle safety performance) protection system, which, when used in conjunction with seat belts, can provide effective collision protection for occupants.

What kind of oil is used in a forklift transmission?

Forklift transmissions use No. 8 hydraulic transmission oil. Here is more information about hydraulic transmission: 1. Hydraulic transmission works by utilizing the kinetic energy of liquids. Hydraulic oil, which utilizes the pressure energy of liquids, serves as the hydraulic medium in hydraulic systems, performing functions such as energy transmission, anti-wear protection, system lubrication, corrosion prevention, rust prevention, and cooling. 2. Automatic transmission vehicles typically use hydraulic transmission devices to replace the mechanical clutches found in manual transmission vehicles, thus eliminating the need for a clutch pedal. 3. In hydraulic transmission, the connection between the input shaft and output shaft relies solely on the liquid as the working medium, with no direct contact between components, making it a non-rigid transmission.

What does the menu on the car mean?

The menu on the car refers to the functional operation menu, usually appearing on the multifunction controls of the steering wheel and the center console controls. It serves as the main interface for in-car controls, functioning similarly—pressing the menu button opens the corresponding menu. The lever on the left side of the multifunction steering wheel is generally used for light adjustments (including headlights, front and rear fog lights, and turn signals). Additionally, pressing the menu button allows for the adjustment of many vehicle functions. On the center console controls, the menu button is often the sound effect setting button. A short press, combined with the knob on the right, can adjust the ideal sound quality and tone. However, typically, this button represents the main menu, and its use should be determined based on the specific situation.

How long will a car battery last if the car is not driven?

The duration a car battery can last when the car is not driven depends on specific conditions: 1. Battery terminals disconnected: With a fully charged battery, it can typically last about 12 to 24 months. The exact duration is related to the storage environment temperature - higher temperatures lead to more noticeable battery capacity decline. For household vehicle batteries, the storage time is approximately 6 to 12 months. If the battery is already in a depleted state, this time will be shorter. 2. Battery terminals remain connected: Even when the vehicle is in sleep mode, many electrical components continue to operate, such as internal monitoring functions and some vehicle controllers. This causes continuous battery capacity reduction. The vehicle can generally remain parked for about 1 to 3 months, though in some cases this period may be even shorter.

What are the causes of steering gear oil leakage in cars?

The causes of steering gear oil leakage are as follows: 1. Oil leakage from the screw holes of the steering gear. This may be due to the screw holes being penetrated, or during maintenance, the screws used in the screw holes were too long, causing the area to crack. In this case, oil will slowly seep out from the outer side of the threads. 2. Improper casting leading to oil leakage from the bottom cover. If the bottom cover surface is uneven or the guide pipes are not perpendicular, it can result in insufficiently tight riveting or misalignment of the guide pipes. 3. Oil leakage caused by the use of cardboard gaskets. Cardboard has a strong absorption capacity for oil, and if the bolts are not tightened sufficiently or unevenly, it can lead to uneven placement of the side cover and bottom cover, causing deformation.
