KAMIQ automatic transmission operation method: The vehicle can only be started in P and N gears. To shift out of P gear, the gear lever must be pressed while stepping on the brake. The use of N gear start is when the vehicle is started and driven forward directly. The owner can first turn on the power, step on the brake to pull the gear to N, then ignite, and then shift into D gear to move forward directly. The KAMIQ's body dimensions are 4390 mm in length, 1781 mm in width, and 1593 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2610 mm. The KAMIQ's drive mode is front-engine front-wheel drive, with a front suspension type of MacPherson independent suspension and a rear suspension type of torsion beam non-independent suspension.

For commuters like me who often drive automatic transmission cars, operating the KAMIQ automatic transmission is actually very simple: Before starting, press the brake to confirm the P gear, turn the key to power on, wait for the dashboard to light up, and then shift to D gear. Release the brake and the vehicle will move slowly; step on the accelerator to go. For short red lights, just press the brake without shifting to N gear; if it exceeds half a minute, it is recommended to shift to N gear and pull the handbrake to protect the transmission. When reversing, always come to a complete stop before shifting to R gear. To accelerate for overtaking, press the S button, and the word SPORT will appear on the dashboard, making the transmission respond faster. In the city, don’t use the manual paddle shifters too frequently; those are for mountain roads. Remember to tighten the handbrake before returning to P gear when parking, otherwise the locking mechanism will be under stress!

Will reversing at a highway exit ETC lane be penalized?

Reversing at a highway exit ETC lane will not be penalized. If a vehicle mistakenly enters an ETC lane, it is allowed to reverse, provided there are no vehicles behind and it does not affect the traffic flow. However, any traffic accidents occurring during this period will result in full liability. ETC usage precautions: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent the vehicle ahead from having a faulty ETC device or no ETC device at all, maintain a distance of at least 10 meters from the vehicle ahead to avoid automatic payment for the preceding vehicle. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 km/h. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information, leading to unsuccessful toll deduction. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, detachment, or loosening of the ETC electronic tag may cause the electronic tag to malfunction. In such cases, the device can be taken to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the highway service center for inspection. If the detachment or loosening is not due to human error, reactivation is sufficient. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may cause toll deduction failure. Follow the instructions of on-site staff to proceed to a manual MTC lane and use cash or card payment. Poor signal reception due to excessively thick windshield glass. This is particularly important for vehicles that have had their windshields replaced after an accident or those with modified front windshields.

Is the purchase tax calculated based on the manufacturer's suggested retail price or the actual purchase price?

The specific price of the purchase tax is not calculated based on the manufacturer's suggested retail price, but rather on the net purchase price of the vehicle (i.e., the price listed on the purchase invoice). Calculation for private vehicle tax rate: Taxable price = (Total payment made to the seller for the taxable vehicle + additional fees) × 10%, where the taxable price does not include value-added tax. Calculation for imported vehicle tax rate: Taxable price = (Customs duty-paid price + customs duty + consumption tax) × 10%. Basic regulations for vehicle purchase tax: The taxpayer for vehicle purchase tax is the unit or individual who acquires (including purchase, import, self-production, gift, award, or other means of acquisition for personal use) taxable vehicles. The scope of taxation includes cars, motorcycles, electric vehicles, trailers, and agricultural transport vehicles, with a tax rate of 10%. The formula for calculating the tax payable is: Tax payable = Taxable price × Tax rate.

What does the 14t road sign mean?

The 14t road sign indicates that the road or bridge is designed to bear a load of 14 tons. Road signs are markers that indicate road conditions and serve as guideposts for travelers, typically in the form of poles with directional signs. In traffic terminology, 't' stands for the abbreviation of the English word 'ton,' meaning a unit of weight. If this sign is present, it signifies the maximum allowable total weight limit for vehicles passing through that section of the road or bridge. Road traffic signs are markers set up by the vast majority of countries to warn, prohibit, restrict, or guide road users. Originating from Europe, international road traffic signs aim to bridge the gap caused by differences in languages and scripts. The 'Road Traffic Signs and Markings' (GB5768) standard categorizes road traffic signs into two main types: primary signs and auxiliary signs. Primary signs: Warning signs: Signs that alert drivers and pedestrians to potential hazards ahead. Prohibition signs: Signs that prohibit or restrict certain traffic behaviors by vehicles or pedestrians. Directional signs: Signs that indicate the direction of travel for vehicles and pedestrians. Guide signs: Signs that provide information about road directions, locations, and distances. Tourist area signs: Signs that indicate the direction and distance to tourist attractions. Road construction safety signs: Signs that notify road users of construction zones. Auxiliary signs: Signs that are attached below primary signs to provide additional explanatory information.

Is it harmful to roll back in D gear on an uphill slope?

Rolling back in D gear on an uphill slope will not cause any harm. For AT vehicles, rolling back in D gear simply results in greater stall speed of the torque converter. Correct gear shifting method for automatic transmission on uphill slopes: When driving uphill, automatic transmission vehicles should be shifted to the forward drive D gear position. Automatic transmission means the driver does not need to manually shift gears - the vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. Reasons for stalling in D gear on uphill slopes: This occurs because the slope is too steep and the D gear transmission ratio is insufficient. In such cases, the gear should be shifted to 2nd or even 1st gear. These lower transmission ratios provide greater torque to overcome the vehicle's weight on steep slopes, maintaining engine speed and preventing stalling.

Does a slight scratch on the wheel rim edge have any impact?

There will be some impact if the wheel rim edge is slightly scratched, but the impact is not significant. It is recommended to repair it. Methods for repairing the wheel rim: Carefully check whether the scratch extends to the inner side of the wheel rim. If it cannot be simply repaired, just use paint thinner to slowly wipe the surrounding bruised area and remove the dirt. If the scratch on the wheel is deep and the dirt next to the scratch is difficult to remove, then tools are needed—just a small toothpick can thoroughly clean it. Impact of wheel rim scratches: If the wheel rim is scratched on the surface and only the paint is chipped, it does not need to be replaced. Sometimes the scratched area is large and may look very severe, but it still does not need to be replaced because the performance is not affected—only the appearance is compromised.

Why does the engine speed increase but the vehicle speed doesn't?

The reasons why the engine speed increases but the vehicle speed doesn't are as follows: Transmission slipping: Transmission slipping may be caused by issues with the hydraulic fluid level in the transmission. If the fluid level is too low or too high, it should be adjusted accordingly. After adjustment, check whether the transmission still exhibits slipping. If slipping persists, the quality of the hydraulic fluid should also be inspected. Clutch or brake wear: If the hydraulic fluid appears brownish-black or has a burnt smell, this phenomenon occurs because the friction plates of the clutch or brake have burnt. Additionally, based on the oil circuit pressure, corresponding inspections and repairs should be carried out on the oil pump or valve, and the transmission's sealing rings and gaskets should be replaced promptly.
