Parking method for automatic transmission cars on a slope: First pull the handbrake, step on the foot brake, shift the gear to N position and then to P position. When parking on a slope, pay attention to whether the vehicle may roll back to avoid losses. Parking on an uphill road: When parking on an uphill road, control the steering wheel properly to prevent the vehicle from rolling back during parking, which may compromise safety and cause economic losses. Precautions for starting on a slope: 1. Always apply throttle when starting on a slope. During daily practice, stalling may occur due to greater resistance on the slope and insufficient idle speed, making it difficult for the vehicle to start. If the vehicle stalls while starting on a slope, for manual transmission cars, first apply the brake, then depress the clutch, stop the vehicle completely, and restart. 2. Pay attention to clutch control when starting on a slope. Do not release the clutch too high. If the clutch is released too high without releasing the handbrake, the vehicle may also stall. The driver needs to control the clutch to maintain the vehicle's semi-engaged state by observing the engine speed and the shaking of the car's front, and lightly stepping on the accelerator to start successfully.

What does the oil with a wrench mean?

The dashboard displaying oil and a wrench indicates that the vehicle has reached a preset mileage and requires maintenance. The appearance of the "wrench" on the dashboard does not signify a vehicle malfunction; it is merely a maintenance reminder. The maintenance cycle is pre-set to a certain mileage when the vehicle leaves the factory, so the "wrench" will appear periodically to remind the driver to perform timely maintenance. Additional information: If you are far from a 4S shop, you can ignore this light as it is just a maintenance reminder. You can continue driving without issues until the maintenance mileage is reached. During the maintenance visit, the technician will assist in resetting the reminder.

Which cars feature independent suspension?

Allows the use of softer springs with lower stiffness, enhancing vehicle comfort; 3. Lowers the engine position, thereby reducing the vehicle's center of gravity and improving driving stability; 4.
