You can directly go to a 4S shop and have the staff reset it using specialized software. The "SERVICE" indicator on the display is the maintenance cycle indicator. With the engine turned off, press and hold the trip odometer reset button located below the tachometer. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, release the trip odometer reset button, and the "SERVICE" indicator will appear on the display. Pull out the minute button on the clock, turn the button to the right, turn off the engine, and the reminder message will reset. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, and the indicator will disappear.

What Does Subject 1 Mainly Test?

The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" clearly stipulates that the content of the Subject 1 exam includes: laws, regulations, and rules on road traffic safety; traffic signals and their meanings; knowledge of safe driving and civilized driving; safe driving knowledge under conditions such as highways, mountainous roads, bridges, tunnels, nighttime, adverse weather, and complex road conditions; emergency handling knowledge for situations like tire blowouts, steering failure, and brake failure; general structure of motor vehicles, common knowledge of main safety devices, basic knowledge of daily inspections and maintenance; basic knowledge of self-rescue and first aid after traffic accidents, as well as common hazardous materials. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," the Subject 1 exam consists of 100 questions, divided into single-choice questions and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If 11 questions are answered incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the paper and end the exam. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The exam content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The exam is conducted on a computer, with a time limit of 45 minutes. Subject 1 exam precautions: Candidates should pay attention to their attire during the exam; no slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue up to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in a locker before entering the exam room. Upon entering, the identity verification station will assign a seat. After finding your seat, begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first time, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue up to collect your score report and sign it. Failure to sign will render the result invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject can be taken once, and if you fail, you can retake it once. If you do not take the retake or fail the retake, the exam process ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 only allow 5 exam attempts, and rescheduling must be done at least 10 days later. If you fail the Subject 3 safe and civilized driving knowledge test, your previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. The driving test consists of 3 subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills exam; Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include "Subject 4."

How Many Points Are Deducted for Driving Against Traffic and Crossing the Line?

Driving a motor vehicle over a yellow line results in a 3-point deduction and a fine, while driving against traffic adds another 3-point deduction. Below is a detailed introduction to vehicle point deductions: 1. One-point deduction: Not yielding properly when meeting another vehicle or reversing; not driving large passenger cars, electric vehicles, cranes, or vehicles with trailers as required during the probationary period; not towing trailers or pulling vehicles as required; not installing vehicle license plates as required; not carrying a driver's license or vehicle registration certificate; riding or driving a two-wheeled motorcycle without a safety helmet; carrying passengers on a lightweight motorcycle or carrying children under 12 on the rear seat of a two-wheeled or sidecar motorcycle; driving with doors or compartments not properly closed; smoking, eating, or engaging in other behaviors that hinder safe driving while operating a vehicle; not driving as required on roads without a centerline or clear division between motor vehicle and non-motor vehicle lanes; small passenger car drivers not wearing seat belts as required while driving; other violations of vehicle loading regulations. 2. Three-point deduction: Motor vehicles driven on the road without undergoing regular safety technical inspections as required; driving medium-sized or larger passenger or cargo vehicles, or hazardous material transport vehicles on roads other than highways or urban expressways, or driving other motor vehicles exceeding the speed limit by less than 20%; driving a truck with a load exceeding the approved weight by less than 30%; driving a motor vehicle on a highway below the minimum speed limit; driving a motor vehicle prohibited from entering a highway onto a highway; driving a motor vehicle on a highway or urban expressway not in the designated lane; driving a motor vehicle through a crosswalk without slowing down, stopping, or yielding to pedestrians as required; driving a motor vehicle in violation of no-entry signs or no-crossing line instructions; driving a passenger vehicle (excluding buses) or school bus with passengers exceeding the approved number by less than 20%; driving a motor vehicle in violation of regulations when towing a trailer; not using lights or setting up warning signs as required after a vehicle breaks down or is involved in an accident on the road; driving a motor vehicle not overtaking or yielding as required, or driving against traffic.

Is There a Time Limit for the Subject 2 Driving Test?

The entire Subject 2 driving test does not have an overall time limit, but certain individual tasks have specified completion times. Subject 2, also known as the small road test, has a perfect score of 100 points, and each test attempt allows two chances. There are evaluation criteria set for failing, deducting 10 points, or deducting 5 points. For reversing into a parking space, the completion time must not exceed 210 seconds (starting from when reverse gear is engaged); For parallel parking, the completion time must not exceed 90 seconds; For stopping and starting on a slope, after stopping, the vehicle must start moving uphill within 30 seconds. For tasks with specified time limits like those mentioned above, they must be completed within the allotted time; otherwise, the test will be considered a failure. For most regions where only five tasks are tested, the Subject 2 test generally takes about 10 minutes from start to finish. For regions where nine tasks are tested, the Subject 2 test will take relatively longer. The test tasks include: Reversing into a parking space: reversing into the garage from the right starting point, then driving to the left to reverse into the garage, and finally returning to the starting point. No stopping is allowed during the reversing process. Parallel parking: driving the vehicle to a position parallel to the garage's forward direction, then reversing into the garage without any pauses. Turning at a right angle: no crossing the lines is allowed, and it must be completed in one go without stopping. Stopping and starting on a slope: the examinee must drive the vehicle to the slope test point, with the front wheels stopping exactly on the line. After passing this part, the examinee must start moving uphill without rolling backward. Any mistake will result in point deductions or failure. Driving through curves: this involves navigating a lane with two turns greater than 40 degrees in one go without stopping, crossing lines, or going out of bounds. The perfect score is 100 points, with evaluation criteria for failing, deducting 20 points, deducting 10 points, or deducting 5 points. A score of 80 or above is required to pass. Newly added test tasks include simulated tunnel driving, simulated highway toll card collection, narrow road U-turns, and passing through a width-restricted gate. Important notes for taking the Subject 2 test: Drive slowly: maintaining a slow speed is essential when learning and practicing Subject 2. It can be considered a fundamental rule. Only by ensuring the car does not stop can you keep the speed as slow as possible, which allows ample time to adjust each step. Adjust the mirrors: after getting into the car, adjust the rearview mirrors properly, as they play a crucial role in parallel parking and reversing into a parking space. Mastering the three-point alignment method is important. During practice, correctly identify reference points on the car and the ground, and observe everything carefully to achieve better results. Maintain a good mindset during the test, wear comfortable clothing, and avoid excessive nervousness. Familiarize yourself with each step of the test, such as adjusting the seat after entering the car and fastening the seatbelt only after ensuring everything is correct before starting the test. Keep the speed uniform during the test, avoid crossing lines within the test tasks, accurately identify reference points, and perform each task carefully. After passing the test, drive the car back to the starting position and confirm your signature before turning off the engine.

What Causes Smoke from the Car Hood?

Smoke from the car hood may be caused by engine overheating. The specific reasons for different colors of smoke from the car hood are analyzed as follows: White smoke: caused by a small injection advance angle leading to incomplete combustion; slight water leakage in the cylinder liner or water in the fuel may also cause white smoke. Black smoke: caused by an imbalance in the air-fuel ratio; a drop in cylinder pressure; premature injection timing can cause black smoke; failure of the smoke limiter on the fuel injection pump can also cause black smoke during sudden acceleration. Blue smoke: often caused by burning engine oil. In this case, check for wear in the engine cylinder liner, piston ring misalignment, aging or deformation of the valve seals, etc., which is usually accompanied by crankcase blow-by.

Can New Energy Vehicles Run Air Conditioning While Charging?

New energy vehicles can run air conditioning while charging, but it is not recommended. Using the air conditioning during the charging process increases the internal charge load on the power battery pack of new energy electric vehicles. Here are some additional tips: Correctly manage charging time: The battery charging time is around ten hours, and overcharging should be avoided. Plan charging stops in advance when preparing for a trip to avoid running out of power while driving. Protect the charger: Try to avoid shaking or vibrating the charger. To reduce costs, most chargers currently are not designed to withstand high levels of vibration. Many chargers experience parameter drift after vibration, causing abnormal charging. If you must move the charger, try to pack it securely with plastic foam.
