Here are the charging methods for the BYD Song Plus-DMI: 1. Install a wall-mounted charging station. When purchasing the car, the manufacturer provides a home wall-mounted charging station. The prerequisite is having your own parking space and obtaining approval from the property management of the residential area. The charging power of the wall-mounted charging station is 3.3KW. In actual use, the charging power is around 3KW. 2. Use public charging stations. Public charging stations generally come in two types: DC charging stations and AC charging stations. The BYD Song Plus-DMI hybrid model does not support DC fast charging. When searching for public charging stations, look for AC charging stations and avoid DC charging stations, as you might not be able to charge even if you drive there. 3. Use the portable charger provided with the car. When purchasing the car, the manufacturer includes a portable home charger. Simply plug it into a 220V household socket to charge, but the actual charging power is only around 1.5KW. Using the portable charger, the time to charge from 0 to full is 16.9kWh/1.5KW=11.3 hours.

What is the Difference Between Xenon Headlights and Halogen Headlights?

Xenon headlights and halogen headlights differ in their structure: Xenon headlights do not have filaments; instead, they generate light through an arc produced between two electrodes. Halogen headlights have filaments and produce light via tungsten filaments. The principle of xenon headlights involves filling an ultraviolet-resistant quartz glass tube with various chemical gases, then using a booster to instantly increase the vehicle's 12-volt power supply to 23,000 volts. Under this high voltage, xenon gas is ionized, creating a light source between the two electrodes. The principle of halogen headlights involves injecting halogen gases such as iodine or bromine into the bulb. At high temperatures, the sublimated tungsten filament reacts chemically with the halogen, and upon cooling, the tungsten re-solidifies on the filament, forming a balanced cycle that prevents the filament from breaking prematurely.

Does a child count as overloading?

Children count as overloading. Here is some information: Traffic regulations: According to China's traffic laws, the criterion for determining overloading is the number of passengers, and there is no exception for children. Even infants who cannot walk are counted as one passenger. Consequences of overloading: As per relevant laws, if the overload does not exceed 20% of the specified limit, a fine of 200 yuan and 3 demerit points will be imposed. If it exceeds 20%, an additional 3 demerit points will be added, totaling 6 points. Safety concerns: In the event of an emergency brake, children can easily be thrown out, causing unnecessary trouble and danger. Traffic police also emphasize that during family road trips, the number of passengers must strictly adhere to the vehicle's rated capacity.

Should the City use 5w30 or 5w40 engine oil?

The City can use either 5w30 or 5w40 engine oil. Engine oil, also known as motor lubricant, serves the following functions: lubricating and reducing friction in the engine, assisting in cooling, sealing against leaks, preventing rust and corrosion, and providing shock absorption. The City is a compact car. Taking the 2019 City CVT Dynamic Edition as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4450 mm, width 1695 mm, height 1477 mm, with a wheelbase of 2600 mm and a fuel tank capacity of 40 liters. The 2019 City CVT Dynamic Edition is equipped with a 1.5L inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 96 kW at 6600 rpm, and a maximum torque of 155 Nm at 4600 rpm.

Which Button is the Cruise Control?

Cruise control is activated by the lever located on the lower left side of the steering wheel. The lever features six buttons: RESUME, ON, CANCEL, OFF/ASL, ACCELERATE (+), and DECELERATE (-). Here’s an introduction to the cruise control system: Definition of Cruise Control System: The cruise control system (CRUISE-CONTROL-SYSTEM), abbreviated as CCS, is also known as a speed control device. Function of Cruise Control: Once the driver sets the desired speed and activates the system, the vehicle maintains that speed automatically without the need to press the accelerator pedal. Benefits of Cruise Control: During long drives on highways, it reduces driver fatigue by eliminating the need to manually control the accelerator pedal. It also minimizes unnecessary speed fluctuations, thereby improving fuel efficiency.

Where is the air conditioning filter of Venucia T90 located?

Open the engine hood, remove the fixed scupper clips and the scupper, and you can see the car's air conditioning filter. Below is the relevant introduction: The function of the air conditioning filter: The air conditioning filter is a filtering device in the air conditioning system used to filter dust, pollen, particulate matter, etc. Without an air conditioning filter, particulate matter or dust in the air entering the car can pollute the air inside the vehicle. This reduces the efficiency of the cooling system and may cause allergies if harmful particles are inhaled, potentially affecting driving safety. The filter needs regular replacement: The air conditioning filter should be replaced after a period of use to prevent clogging, which could lead to air conditioning blockage. A functioning air conditioning filter maintains clean air inside the car and protects the cooling system. Generally, the air conditioning filter should be replaced every 10,000 kilometers.

Can You Continue Driving When the Car Engine's Water Temperature is Overheated?

You should not continue driving when the car engine's water temperature is overheated, as it can lead to the following consequences: 1. Reduced air intake efficiency, resulting in decreased engine power; 2. Increased likelihood of pre-ignition and knocking, disrupting the engine's normal operation; 3. Additional impact loads on components, causing premature damage; 4. Disruption of the normal clearance between moving parts, hindering their proper movement or even causing damage; 5. Weakening of the mechanical properties of metal materials, leading to deformation and damage of components. The causes of an overheated car engine include: 1. Thermostat failure, preventing coolant from circulating properly; 2. Blockage in the radiator or engine water jacket; 3. Corrosion of the water pump impeller, resulting in insufficient water pressure; 4. Bent or deformed radiator fins or obstruction by foreign objects; 5. Severe leakage leading to insufficient coolant; 6. Delayed engine ignition timing; 7. Loose water pump belt; 8. Malfunctioning or slow-running electric fan.
