Hold down the trip meter reset button, turn the ignition key to the "ON" position, wait a moment, then press and release the accelerator pedal. The maintenance light serves to record the mileage of important components, functioning like a timer in a sprint race to remind both the car owner and maintenance personnel. Although the maintenance light does not affect the vehicle's performance, it must be reset after maintenance; otherwise, the owner cannot accurately track the usage time of new components during the next replacement. Car Maintenance Tips: 1. Maintain Interior Cleanliness: Summer is the season when bacteria multiply the fastest, so the car interior should be kept clean, especially easily soiled items like seat covers, steering wheel covers, and floor mats. 2. Choose Suitable Driving Routes: For vehicles with low ground clearance, avoid driving on heavily uneven roads to prevent undercarriage scratches or deformation. 3. Replace Windshield Wipers: When driving in the rain, pay attention to the wipers. Over time, the rubber on older wipers can deteriorate. To ensure good visibility during rainy conditions, it is best to replace windshield wipers every one to two years.

How long does it take for a car to reach the 4S store after arriving at the port?

If it is an imported car ordered by a 4S store, it usually takes about half a month to reach the local 4S store. The following is a partial introduction about imported cars: Imported cars: Imported cars are vehicles manufactured abroad, then authorized for sale by domestic 4S store dealers. The price of imported cars is relatively expensive due to authorization reasons, with higher taxes, but they come with high-quality assurance. Parallel imported cars: Parallel imports, simply put, are imported cars sold without authorization but are legal. Apart from the domestic general distributor, other importers directly import the cars from the product's country of origin. Their import channels are 'parallel' to the domestic authorized sales channels.

Is the original license plate automatically canceled after vehicle transfer?

After the vehicle is transferred, the original license plate can be applied for retention within two years. If the original license plate is not used within two years after the transfer, the license plate number will be automatically canceled. After the vehicle is transferred, if you want to keep the original license plate, you should quickly go to the relevant department to apply the license plate number to your newly purchased vehicle. Only in this way can you continue to use the original license plate; otherwise, it will be automatically invalidated. Article 52 of the "Regulations on the Registration of Motor Vehicles" stipulates that after completing the transfer registration or cancellation registration of a motor vehicle, the original owner can apply to the vehicle management office to use the original license plate number when registering a newly purchased motor vehicle. The application to use the original license plate number must meet the following conditions: The application must be submitted within six months after completing the transfer registration or cancellation registration; The owner must have owned the original motor vehicle for more than three years; All traffic violations and accidents involving the original motor vehicle must be resolved. Article 53 states that the determination of the motor vehicle license plate number shall be done through computer-automated selection or by the owner arranging it themselves according to the standard regulations for license plates. The documents required for the original owner during the transfer of a used vehicle include: the registration certificate, the vehicle license, and the ID card. The buyer needs to provide an ID card, and if they are from another region, a residence permit or temporary residence certificate is required. Vehicle transfer first requires a vehicle evaluation. The evaluation fee is generally 1%-2% of the evaluated vehicle price, while other fees include those for the license plate and vehicle license. The original commercial insurance of the vehicle can be canceled (compulsory insurance cannot be canceled), or it can be transferred to the buyer at the insurance company. Precautions when purchasing a used vehicle: Incomplete documentation. Complete documentation for a used vehicle includes: the vehicle registration certificate (or the original purchase invoice), the vehicle license, the vehicle purchase tax payment certificate, road maintenance fee records, and compulsory insurance. Missing documents such as the vehicle registration certificate or vehicle license, or unpaid compulsory insurance and road maintenance fees, can cause endless trouble for the buyer. Therefore, if the seller cannot provide complete documentation, the buyer should be particularly cautious. Tampering with the odometer. Most consumers rely on the odometer to judge the condition of the vehicle, and sellers often take advantage of this by tampering with the odometer. In fact, the odometer is not only an indicator of usage intensity but also a record of repairs and replacements for other vehicle components. If the buyer follows the maintenance schedule based on a tampered odometer, it can lead to a series of potential safety hazards. New paint covering "external injuries." When purchasing a used vehicle, if the vehicle has been repainted and there are signs of repairs around the front, rear, or A, B, and C pillars, the vehicle may have been involved in a major accident. "Tuning the heart" to raise the price. Many consumers focus too much on the vehicle's "heart" (engine) and neglect the health of the body when buying a car. Used car sellers take advantage of this by replacing engine components to make the vehicle's "heart" appear younger, thereby inflating the price.

How Long is the Break-in Period for a Scooter?

New motorcycles generally have a break-in period of 1,500 kilometers, which is the basic mileage required to ensure proper contact, friction, adaptation, and settling of mechanical components. This is also mentioned in the user manual. Below is relevant information about the break-in period: Concept: The break-in period generally refers to the process where mechanical parts undergo initial contact, friction, and meshing during operation. Precautions: Avoid emergency braking: Emergency braking not only shocks the braking system during the break-in period but also increases the impact load on the chassis and engine. It is best to avoid emergency braking within the first 300 kilometers of driving. Avoid overloading: Running a new vehicle at full capacity during the break-in period can damage the mechanical components. Therefore, within the first 1,000 kilometers, the load should generally not exceed 75%-80% of the rated capacity.

How often should spark plugs be cleaned?

Spark plugs should be cleaned every 10,000 kilometers and replaced after driving 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers under normal maintenance conditions. However, this may vary depending on the brand and engine type, so it is recommended to follow the user manual. The following standards can be referenced for maintenance and replacement: Platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 kilometers, ordinary nickel alloy spark plugs at 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs at 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Damaged spark plugs can cause the following issues: If spark plugs are damaged, they can directly lead to leakage in the vehicle's ignition system, increased fuel consumption, reduced power, and other problems. The most significant issue is difficulty in ignition, affecting the normal operation of the vehicle. Severe erosion of spark plugs, such as scarring at the top, damage, or melted and eroded electrodes, indicates that the spark plugs are damaged and should be replaced.
