Using this method requires installing a charging pile in front of your home. To install a charging station, you need to communicate with the property management to see if the community regulations allow the installation of charging piles. After obtaining approval from the property management, you also need consent from the fire department and civil air defense office, followed by an on-site inspection by the power supply department. Only when all these steps are approved can the installation proceed.

I've been driving the Changan BenBen EV for almost a year now, and slow charging is really convenient. I usually use a home charging station by plugging it into the charging port on the car body and then connecting it to a power outlet. If it's a standard 220V outlet, an adapter might be needed. The indicator light turns on during charging to show whether it's working properly. A full charge takes about 8 to 10 hours, which is perfect for plugging in before bed and waking up to a fully charged car in the morning. For battery health, it's best to avoid frequent fast charging—slow charging helps the battery last longer and is much cheaper than refueling, with significantly lower electricity costs. Installing a dedicated charging station is safer and more stable; avoid outdoor charging during rainy weather to prevent short circuits. Don't open the door or unplug during charging, as it can damage the equipment. Slow charging also supports a timer function, allowing you to set it during off-peak electricity hours to save even more money. When traveling, remember to bring a portable charger for quick top-ups without affecting your trip. With this routine, the car's range stays stable and economical for daily use.

Can You Still Drive with a Punctured Tire?

Whether you can still drive with a punctured tire depends on the location of the puncture. If the puncture is on the tread, the tire can still be driven after being repaired. However, if the puncture is on the sidewall, it is not safe to drive even after repair. The sidewall is the thinner and more fragile part of the tire, and damage to it poses a potential risk of a blowout, so it is recommended to replace the tire directly. If the tire is punctured but not leaking air, the owner should not remove the foreign object directly, as doing so may cause air leakage, making the car undrivable. Instead, drive slowly to a repair location. If the tire is severely leaking air, do not force the drive, as this not only harms the tire but also poses a driving hazard.

Is Engine Shaking Normal?

Engine shaking under normal working conditions is normal, but this shaking should be relatively steady and regular. If you noticeably feel an increase in vehicle shaking or if it persists continuously, there may be an issue that requires inspection and repair. The cause of engine shaking is excessive carbon buildup in the combustion chamber, which not only increases the compression ratio, creating high pressure, but also generates high-temperature hot spots on the carbon deposits, leading to engine shaking. If you have already cleaned the engine carbon deposits, cleaned the throttle body, and replaced the spark plugs but still observe body shaking during idle, it is recommended to check whether the fuel supply pressure and the intake pressure sensor are functioning properly. Abnormal fuel pump supply pressure or incorrect values and poor performance of the intake pressure sensor can all cause engine shaking.

What kind of engine oil should be used for cars in winter?

What kind of engine oil should be used for cars in winter depends on the local coldness. 0w is suitable for polar regions, 5w is suitable for Northeast and Northwest China, 10w and 15w are suitable for North China and Central-Southwest China, 20w is suitable for areas south of the Yellow River and north of the Yangtze River, and 25w is suitable for subtropical regions. The selection of engine oil viscosity should meet both low-temperature starting performance and high-temperature lubrication performance. The viscosity grade should be selected according to the region, season, and temperature, and multi-grade oil should be used as much as possible. For new engines, oil with lower viscosity should be selected to ensure normal running-in during the service period; for older engines with significant wear, oil with higher viscosity should be selected to maintain the required oil pressure and ensure normal lubrication.

What does the car AC switch mean?

Car AC switch refers to the cooling on/off button of the vehicle's air conditioning system. When this button is pressed, the air conditioning compressor will start working, and the air blown by the blower will be cold. For example, in summer when you need to lower the temperature inside the car, press this button and then turn the temperature selection switch to the blue section, and cold air will be blown out. If the car is equipped with automatic air conditioning, simply press this button and then press the AUTO button. Car air conditioning is used to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and air flow inside the car cabin to an optimal state, providing a comfortable riding environment for passengers, reducing travel fatigue, and creating good working conditions for the driver. It is an important ventilation device that plays a crucial role in ensuring safe driving. Car air conditioning generally includes a cooling device, a heating device, and a ventilation device.

How to Remove Tree Sap from Car Body?

To remove tree sap from the car body, follow these methods: 1. Wash the car body with clean water to soften the tree sap. If only a small area is affected, you can place a wet towel over it to soften the sap. After softening, use car wash soap and a towel to wipe the areas with sap until completely removed. 2. Use a clay bar to wipe the sap off, which not only effectively removes the sap but also provides some polishing effect. Tree sap is a secretion from trees. If you frequently park your car under trees, the body may accumulate a lot of sap. In summer, to avoid sun exposure, it's best to park your car in a carport or underground parking lot rather than under trees. Prolonged exposure of sap on the car body can cause some corrosion to the paint, so it's advisable to clean it promptly.
