To turn off the anti-skid system on the Ford Ecosport, locate the ESP option in the car's central control settings and click it to deactivate. If the anti-skid warning light is illuminated and needs to be turned off, it is necessary to visit a maintenance center to first read the fault code, ensuring that the car's anti-skid function is not compromised before turning off the warning light. The anti-skid system in a car is a further development and supplement to the ABS system, with both systems working together to form the car's active safety driving system. The Ford Ecosport is the first compact SUV under Changan Ford, with body dimensions of 4345mm in length, 1785mm in width, and 1659mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2530mm. In terms of power, the Ford Ecosport offers three engine options: a 2.0L direct-injection engine, a 1.0L turbocharged direct-injection engine, and a 1.5L engine, paired with a SelectShift 6-speed automatic transmission for more precise and smooth power delivery.

What is considered a normal fuel consumption per 100 kilometers?

There is no precise answer to what constitutes normal fuel consumption per 100 kilometers, as various factors such as vehicle model, engine displacement, road conditions, speed, driving habits, vehicle age, condition, quality, and load can all influence the final fuel consumption. Taking a 1.6L displacement family car as an example, if driven normally in urban areas without poor driving habits, a combined fuel consumption of around 7.5 liters per 100 kilometers is considered fuel-efficient. Therefore, a consumption of approximately 0.5~0.7 liters per kilometer is relatively low. If a 1.6L displacement vehicle exceeds 7.5L, its fuel consumption is relatively high. The level of a car's fuel consumption is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and ambient temperature. Reasons that may increase fuel consumption include: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before reaching a red light can increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Cars with larger displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements typically require more power and thus more gasoline combustion. Heavier vehicles also consume more fuel due to the greater driving torque needed. Road conditions: Driving on unpaved roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases the vehicle's resistance and fuel consumption. Low ambient temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, in cold weather, the engine's computer may control higher idle speeds to warm up the engine, further increasing fuel consumption.

What does a car icon displayed on the dashboard mean?

When a small car icon appears on the dashboard while driving, it indicates that the vehicle's anti-theft system is active. After locking the car, if the icon does not flash, it means the car is not properly locked or there is a malfunction in the anti-theft system; if it flashes, the anti-theft system is functioning normally. The anti-theft device effectively prevents the car engine from being stolen by criminals, enhancing the vehicle's security. The functions of the car anti-theft system are: Automotive electronic anti-theft refers to the use of electronic signal transmitters and receivers to achieve anti-theft functionality. The electronic anti-theft system mainly consists of an electronically controlled remote or key, electronic control circuit, alarm device, and actuator. The key contains a chip that amplifies its signal when near the ignition lock. The anti-theft computer then verifies whether the key is legitimate. If legitimate, the engine can be started; if not, the engine will not start. By locking the ignition switch and prohibiting vehicle startup, the system achieves its anti-theft purpose. Once in "anti-theft" mode, it triggers an audible alarm. If there is an issue with the anti-theft system, it should be repaired at a 4S shop; otherwise, the car is at risk of being stolen. If the car is not used for an extended period, the battery's negative terminal can be disconnected. However, this will stop the anti-theft system from working. Therefore, if the car is idle for a long time, it's beneficial to drive it occasionally for both the car and the battery. Prolonged parking accelerates the aging of certain components. With technological advancements, modern vehicles are almost universally equipped with electronic locks. When the electronic lock is engaged, a flashing red light appears, which is normal. The advantage of electronic locks is that there are no keyholes on the outside of the doors, and the fuel tank cap is also secured against theft. As a result, car thefts have become increasingly rare. Types of electronic anti-theft systems include: key-controlled, remote-controlled, alarm-based, and systems with both anti-theft alarms and vehicle immobilization features. In case of theft attempts, these systems not only sound an alarm but also cut off the car's starting circuit, ignition circuit, or fuel line to prevent the vehicle from being moved.
