You need to pull the hood release lever, then walk to the front of the engine compartment and release the hood at the center position by lifting the latch to open the engine hood. Below are the functions of the hood: 1. Airflow guidance: By directing airflow, air resistance can be decomposed into beneficial forces, enhancing driving stability. 2. Protection for the engine and surrounding components: The area under the hood houses critical parts of the vehicle, including the engine, electrical circuits, fuel lines, braking system, and transmission system. By improving the strength and construction of the hood, it effectively guards against adverse effects such as impacts, corrosion, rain, and electrical interference, ensuring the vehicle's proper operation. 3. Assisting driver visibility: The shape of the hood can effectively adjust the direction and form of reflected light, thereby reducing the impact of light on the driver.

How to Replace the Oil Filter on a GS4?

GS4 oil filter replacement method: 1. Run the engine to operating temperature, then jack up the car, engage the handbrake, and wedge the front wheels with wooden blocks; 2. Drain the engine oil by opening the oil drain plug located underneath the vehicle, allowing the lubricant to flow out; 3. After loosening the oil filter element, the oil flow rate will slow down. At this point, you can remove the oil filter for secondary drainage. Removing the oil filter requires effort and a specialized filter wrench. Ensure all residual oil in the compartment is drained; 4. Once all oil has drained, replace the oil filter. Install the new filter using the filter wrench, tighten it, then secure the drain plug and lower the vehicle; 5. Apply a suitable amount of new oil to the seal ring of the new oil filter before opening it. Wipe off any oil and dirt from the filter mating surface with a clean cloth. Install the new filter and tighten it with the appropriate oil filter wrench, then wipe the new filter clean; 6. Tighten the drain plug, lower the vehicle, add new oil, and check the oil level. Start the vehicle and let it idle at medium speed for a while, observing whether the oil filter leaks.

Should the Handbrake Be Engaged When Parking?

It is essential to engage the handbrake after parking. This is a mandatory safety measure to prevent the vehicle from rolling, especially on inclined surfaces. For beginners, remember that "engaging the handbrake when parking" is the first step in developing proper car usage habits. Notes: 1. However, one important point to note: during winter parking, it is advisable to choose a flat surface, as engaging the handbrake in cold weather may cause it to freeze, making it difficult to release the next morning. Generally, this issue does not occur in areas that are not extremely cold. 2. Function of the handbrake: It is used to brake the vehicle when parked on flat or sloped surfaces, preventing the car from moving automatically when unattended, thereby avoiding potential traffic accidents.

Can You See Inside the Opposite Car at Night with Headlights On?

According to the actual situation analysis. If two cars are meeting, it is difficult to see clearly during the meeting period. The following are the functions of car headlights: 1. Turn signals: Turn signals are the most commonly used signal lights, which are turned on when the vehicle needs to turn. It should be noted that the turn signal should be turned on about 30 to 100 meters away from the turning intersection. 2. Headlights: Headlights have two forms, high beam and low beam. Use low beam on roads with street lights in urban areas, and high beam on roads without street lights or highways. When meeting another car, the high beam should be turned off and replaced with low beam. 3. Tail lights (brake lights): When the brake lights are on, it tells the following vehicles that the car is braking and to slow down. When you notice the tail lights of the car in front are on, you should also prepare to slow down. 4. Emergency signal lights (hazard lights): Used in emergency situations such as temporary parking due to vehicle failure, and should also be turned on in bad weather with low visibility. Emergency signal lights are closely related to driving safety, so it is necessary to check them regularly to ensure they are functioning properly.

Can a Tire Be Used Normally After Vulcanized Patching?

There are certain safety hazards. The following is relevant extended information: 1. Hazards: The inner liner may not be fully repaired, allowing continued air leakage into the tire's internal structure, creating pinholes. Chronic air leakage from these pinholes could lead to underinflated driving and potential blowouts. Vulcanized patching exposes rubber to high heat, damaging its structure and causing localized premature aging or damage. 2. Tires: These are circular elastic rubber products mounted on various vehicles or machinery for ground contact and rolling. Typically installed on metal rims, they support the vehicle body, absorb external impacts, maintain road contact, and ensure driving performance. Tires operate under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and temperature extremes during use, thus requiring high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and shock absorption. They must also possess excellent wear resistance, flex resistance, plus low rolling resistance and heat generation. As the only component connecting a vehicle to the road surface.
