Vehicle tail markings: The first four digits indicate the car model. Below is relevant information about car models: 1. Introduction: A car model number is an identification code consisting of pinyin letters and Arabic numerals assigned to a category of vehicles for recognition purposes. Before 2001, China's national standard specified numbering rules for various types of vehicles, which were adopted and used by automobile manufacturers and displayed on the main exterior surfaces of vehicles. After 2001, the relevant national standards were discontinued, and no new regulations were established for car model numbering methods. Due to the long usage cycle of car models and their simple, easily understandable content, they have been adopted and referenced by multiple industries. Therefore, most automobile manufacturers and products still follow the original national standard for model numbering. 2. Compilation Principles: Not applicable to military special vehicles (such as armored vehicles, amphibious vehicles, missile launch vehicles, etc.). The product model of a car consists of the enterprise name code, vehicle category code, main parameter code, and product serial number. Additional enterprise-specific codes may be added when necessary. For special-purpose vehicles and special semi-trailers, a special vehicle classification code should also be included.

What to Do When the Vehicle Anti-Theft Lock Fails to Start?

Methods to handle when the vehicle anti-theft lock fails to start: If the engine anti-theft lock is displayed as activated and the engine cannot be started due to key mismatch, try starting with a spare key. The engine anti-theft system is designed to prevent the engine from being started without the correct key, requiring the electronic chip to match for identification. The anti-theft lock is part of the engine's security system, preventing the car from being driven away if the doors are pried open. The key for an anti-theft engine contains a chip that verifies if the engine ID matches; if not, the car automatically locks and cannot be started or driven away. If using a spare key does not work, the issue might be a malfunction in the anti-theft lock. Repairing the anti-theft lock is complex, so it's best to contact a 4S shop for inspection and repair.

What do h4l and h4f mean?

h4l and h4f refer to High-speed 4WD (4-wheel drive) and Full-time 4WD respectively. In Full-time 4WD mode, all four wheels of the vehicle are powered, and the wheels can have speed differences. In High-speed 4WD mode, all four wheels are also powered, but the front and rear differentials are locked. Many high-performance off-road vehicles offer different 4WD modes. The basic 4WD modes include Full-time 4WD, High-speed 4WD, and Low-speed 4WD. When the vehicle switches to Low-speed 4WD mode, the wheel torque is amplified, which helps the vehicle escape difficult terrain more effectively. All vehicles are equipped with differentials. When turning, the left and right wheels rotate at different speeds. When the differential is engaged, power is evenly distributed to the left and right tires, enabling the vehicle to quickly free itself from challenging situations.

What are the tips for controlling the clutch in Subject 2?

Tips for controlling the clutch in Subject 2: 1. Press down quickly and lift slowly, pause slightly midway to find the contact point; 2. Maintain a gentle pressure above the contact point, and lift the pedal smoothly for engagement. The working principle of the clutch is to temporarily separate and gradually engage the engine with the transmission by pressing or releasing the clutch pedal, thereby cutting off or transmitting the power from the engine to the transmission. The clutch has three working states: disengagement when the clutch is pressed down, full engagement when the clutch is not pressed down, and semi-engagement when the clutch is partially pressed down. Semi-engagement is the decisive factor affecting whether the engine's kinetic energy can be transmitted to the wheels. Many people experience unstable speeds or even stalling because they cannot accurately master the semi-engagement state, pressing or releasing the clutch too much.
