Here are the tips for using the manual mode in Magotan: 1. When manual mode is needed, first shift the gear lever to the manual position (M gear or S gear). 2. To upshift, simply push the gear lever towards "+". 3. To downshift, push the gear lever towards "-". Analyzing from the gear positions, in addition to the familiar P, R, N, and D gears, there is an additional M gear for manual mode. In some models, the manual mode of the automatic manual transmission is labeled as "S", which is merely a difference in name, with no variation in actual operation method.

What is the recommended speed during the new car break-in period?

During the break-in period, it is recommended to drive at a speed of 50 to 80 kilometers per hour, and it is crucial to control the driving speed and avoid excessive speeds. Relevant information is as follows: 1. After driving more than 1,500 kilometers, you can gradually increase the engine speed and vehicle speed to the maximum allowed by the vehicle, but avoid forcefully pressing the accelerator to ensure that pistons, cylinders, and other important components increase their load under moderate conditions. 2. The break-in period generally refers to the process where mechanical parts initially come into contact, rub against each other, and fit together. For cars, the break-in period refers to the initial driving phase of a new car or after a major overhaul, typically covering 1,000 to 1,500 kilometers, which is the essential mileage needed to ensure that parts fully contact, rub, adapt, and settle into their final form.

How to Turn on the Heater in a Car?

To turn on the heater in a car, follow these steps: 1. Start the car to allow the engine to warm up. 2. When the engine coolant temperature gauge reaches the middle, you can turn on the heater switch. 3. Turn on the blower switch, then rotate the air conditioning button to the red heating zone, and adjust the temperature of the heater according to your needs. The functions of the car heater system are as follows: 1. On cold winter days (even in late autumn and early spring), the car heater system can provide warmth inside the car, increasing the interior temperature. 2. In winter, spring, and autumn, when the air humidity is high and there is a significant temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car, frost or fog may form on the windows, affecting the driver's visibility and compromising driving safety. Turning on the heater system can help remove frost and fog from the windows.

Can the steering wheel tie rod be adjusted on one side only?

Both sides of the steering wheel tie rod need to be adjusted, with one side loosened and the other side tightened. The method for adjusting the steering wheel is as follows: 1. Adjust the tie rod, referring to "screwing in" and "screwing out" relative to the "tie rod base." 2. Adjustment of the left front wheel tie rod: turn the steering wheel fully to the right, loosen the tie rod fastening nut (preferably using a large adjustable wrench for better leverage). 3. Make your own marks on the tie rod and tie rod base to track the adjustment angle (number of turns). Precautions are as follows: 1. Do not adjust too much at once. It may not be perfect on the first try; test drive on a straight road and make several fine adjustments. 2. After completion, apply force to the fastening nut. Finally, recheck if there is any deviation in the toe-in. If you are not confident, do not attempt to adjust it yourself. Improper adjustment with a significant difference in toe-in value can lead to uneven tire wear and misaligned steering. It is recommended to take it to a professional mechanic for adjustment or inspection.

What Causes Abnormal Noise in the Compressor After a Vehicle Crosses Water?

Vehicle crossing water after the compressor has abnormal noise causes are brake pads water ingress, exhaust pipe water ingestion, foreign objects trapped between the brake pads and calipers, or debris lodged in the chassis. Below are the specific causes and corresponding solutions for abnormal compressor noise after a vehicle crosses water: Brake pads water ingress: If the vehicle crosses shallow water and water splashes onto the brake pads, squealing when braking is normal. This condition only requires normal driving until the water on the brake pads wears off. Foreign objects on brake pads: If the vehicle crosses deep water and foreign objects such as plastic bags, paper, or mud get trapped on the brake pads, it can cause noise when braking. In this case, the brake pads should be cleaned. Exhaust pipe water ingestion: If the vehicle crosses deep water and water enters the engine through the exhaust pipe, it can prevent proper combustion of fuel and air mixture, leading to abnormal noise. The vehicle should be moved out immediately, and the engine should be cleaned to avoid engine failure or severe damage. If the vehicle stalls in the water, do not attempt to restart it; instead, call a tow truck to avoid secondary damage to the engine. Debris lodged in the chassis: If foreign objects get trapped in the chassis after crossing water, it can cause noise while driving. The chassis should be cleaned in this situation.

Can 6-year-old tires still be used?

Six-year-old tires cannot be used. Tires that are over 6 years old experience degradation or aging due to physical and chemical factors, which weakens their functionality. Tires stored unused for long periods are more prone to hardening and becoming brittle compared to those used normally on vehicles. The following conditions also render tires unusable: 1. Visible signs of wear or damage in three to four areas around the tire. 2. Exposed steel wires or fabric within the tire rubber. 3. Cracks, cuts, or deep grooves on the tread or sidewall that expose steel wires or fabric. 4. Bulges, protrusions, or splits in the tire. 5. Punctures, cuts, or other damage that cannot be repaired due to their size or location.
