When a car starts at low speed, it is in the peak fuel consumption zone. Therefore, gently pressing the accelerator during startup to prevent excessively high RPM can effectively reduce fuel consumption. Avoid unnecessary high RPM as much as possible, as fluctuating engine speeds can also significantly increase fuel consumption. Change the engine oil and remove carbon deposits. Anticipating road conditions in advance not only improves driving safety but also saves fuel, such as gradually slowing down before traffic lights and utilizing inertia to coast.

What is the usage method of a car battery charger?

The usage method of a car battery charger is: First, connect the positive terminal of the charger to the positive terminal of the battery, and the negative terminal of the charger to the negative terminal of the battery. Then, press the charging button to start charging. Car owners do not need to wait until the battery is fully charged before unplugging it; as long as there is enough power to start the car engine, that is sufficient. Once the engine starts, it will drive the alternator via the belt, and the generated electricity, after rectification and voltage stabilization, will directly charge the car battery. Normal driving for one to two hours is usually enough to restore the battery to its normal charge level. It is important to note that you should avoid frequently overcharging the battery. Although the current produced by the charger is not very high, prolonged boiling of the electrolyte can not only cause fine particles on the surface of the active material to detach easily but may also lead to oxidation of the grid framework, resulting in loose separation between the active material and the grid framework.

What to Do When the Sidewall of a Tire Is Leaking?

Tire sidewall leakage is recommended to be replaced promptly, as the sidewall of a tire is relatively weak. If the sidewall is scratched, it is almost impossible to repair, and continued use poses a risk of a blowout, creating a safety hazard. Generally, tires should not be used for more than 3 years or exceed 60,000 kilometers in mileage. Regularly rotating tires can ensure even wear on all tires of the same vehicle. It is advisable to rotate the tires every 5,000 kilometers, and perform a four-wheel alignment every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers to avoid abnormal or excessive tire wear. It is not permissible to install tires of different models or with significant differences in wear on the same axle.

What should be noted when towing an automatic transmission vehicle?

When towing an automatic transmission vehicle, the following points should be noted: 1. If the vehicle being towed is an automatic transmission, it is recommended to place it in N (Neutral) gear under any circumstances. When in N gear, there is no rigid connection between the input and output shafts of the transmission. During towing, the gears inside the transmission only rotate freely without transferring power to the engine. 2. If the drive wheels are lifted off the ground, theoretically any gear can be engaged, as only the non-drive wheels remain in contact with the ground. 3. Never allow the drive wheels to touch the ground when the gear is in P (Park). The P gear has a locking mechanism that secures the output shaft gear of the transmission, preventing the drive wheels from rotating. Forced towing in this state can wear out the locking gear and may severely damage the P gear locking mechanism. 4. For keyless start vehicles, press the start button to unlock the steering wheel before towing. 5. If you are driving an automatic transmission vehicle to tow another vehicle, simply pay attention to the speed, which is recommended to be around 30 kilometers per hour.

What to do if the ETC is removed?

If the ETC is removed, you should apply for a new card. The replacement process includes: 1. Bring the original ID card and a copy to the bank branch, fill out an ETC business application form, and apply for the ETC function suspension, which will take effect within 24 hours from the time of acceptance; 2. After receiving the new card, go to the designated bank branch to activate the ETC function. ETC, which stands for Electronic Toll Collection in Chinese, uses computer networking technology to conduct background settlement processing with the bank, so that vehicles can pay tolls without stopping when passing through road and bridge toll stations. It is commonly used on highways, bridges or tunnels with toll policies, and some sections of the city center to alleviate urban traffic congestion.
