Methods for removing grease spots from the car are as follows: 1. If the grease spots haven't been there for long: If detected early, they can be wiped off directly with a cloth. 2. If the grease spots have been there for a long time: If the grease has been present for an extended period, causing wrinkles, bubbling, or cracking on the paint surface, it is necessary to use automotive-specific cleaning sandpaper to remove the grease, followed by waxing to restore the car's shine. Below are some precautions for car washing: 1. Frequency of washing: Under normal circumstances, washing the car once every 1-2 weeks is standard. 2. Wash as needed: Since each car is parked in different environments, some cars, apart from being driven on the road, are mostly parked in underground garages and may remain clean for up to a month in good weather; many cars parked outdoors usually accumulate a layer of dust within two weeks. Therefore, the frequency of washing will vary depending on the vehicle. 3. Cleaning agents and tools: First, ensure that the cleaning agent used is neutral, as acidic or alkaline ones can corrode the car paint to some extent. For washing tools, especially the towel used for the car body, it is essential to use a special pure cotton car-washing towel to avoid scratching the paint. 4. Wash the car after rain: Due to current environmental pollution, rainwater often contains acidic substances, so it's advisable to clean it off as soon as possible. If there are stains or mud on the car, it's also recommended to wash them off promptly to prevent corrosion and oxidation of the paint. 5. Regular paint maintenance: Maintenance treatments for the car paint surface generally include waxing and glazing. Glazing is slightly more effective than waxing, lasts longer, and is also more expensive.

How soon after purchasing a new car is it suitable to drive on the highway?

It is suitable to drive on the highway after the new car has run for 1000 kilometers. The engine speed should not be too high, avoid sudden acceleration and braking, and try to maintain a constant speed. If the new car is in the break-in period, high-speed driving, long-distance driving, and fully loaded driving should be avoided. The break-in period is the basic mileage to ensure that the mechanical parts fully contact, friction, and adapt. During this period, the ability of various parts of the car to adapt to the environment can be adjusted and improved, and the protrusions on the parts can be worn off. For a car in the break-in period, it is necessary to control the driving speed and not to drive too fast. After the break-in period, the speed and engine speed can be gradually increased to the maximum speed allowed by the vehicle, and do not press the accelerator pedal too hard to ensure that the pistons, cylinders, and other important parts increase the load in a moderate state.

What does the green ECO light mean?

When the ECO indicator light on the car is illuminated, it indicates that the vehicle's economy mode has been activated. ECO is an English abbreviation derived from the combination of Ecology (environmental protection), Conservation (energy saving), and Optimization (power). The ECO mode is further divided into active ECO driving mode and non-active ECO driving mode. ECO mode is categorized into active and non-active types. The difference lies in the fact that the active type has its own dedicated button, allowing the driver to choose whether to activate it. When the driver presses the ECO mode switch, the dashboard indicator light immediately illuminates, and the vehicle automatically begins adjusting settings such as throttle opening, transmission shift logic, and air conditioning output power. The non-active ECO mode does not have a dedicated button. When the dashboard ECO indicator light is on, it serves merely as a reminder function. The ECO system automatically evaluates your driving behavior. If your current driving operation achieves the optimal fuel supply, the dashboard will simultaneously display the ECO indicator light. Most vehicles employ the active ECO driving mode, meaning they have a dedicated switch button. Therefore, during daily driving, we can activate the ECO mode. However, it is unnecessary to enable ECO mode when driving at speeds exceeding 120 km/h, during idle parking, in N/P gear, or in manual mode, especially when climbing hills. In such scenarios, the ECO mode fails to demonstrate its fuel-saving characteristics and may even impact the vehicle's power performance. Additionally, the ECO mode typically becomes ineffective under the following conditions: When the vehicle speed exceeds 120 kilometers per hour, the car prioritizes speed, causing the ECO mode to deactivate automatically. During idle parking or when in N/P gear or manual mode, the ECO mode may also become ineffective. When a high torque output is required, such as when climbing a hill, the engine control unit prioritizes ensuring sufficient power to drive the vehicle, and the ECO mode will not function in such cases.

How to Adjust the Driver's Seat to the Optimal Position?

To adjust the position, there is usually a lever under the front part of the driver's seat. Press the brake or clutch pedal to ensure it can be fully depressed with ease. Adjust the side and backrest of the driver's seat. When your shoulders are close to the backrest, your hands should naturally extend straight and rest on the top of the steering wheel.
