ECO mode settings primarily utilize the multifunction buttons on the steering wheel, with the information displayed on the LCD screen of the instrument panel, typically shown in the instrument display area. Press the OK button among the right-side buttons on the steering wheel to enter the menu, then use the left and right arrow keys to select the ECO mode, indicating the ECO mode is set. Use the up and down buttons on the steering wheel to turn off the ECO mode. When the display shows the OFF icon, it means the ECO mode is currently set to off. Finally, press the OK button to confirm turning it off and exit the menu, indicating the ECO mode is now closed.

How Many Kilometers Can a Car Run Before Being Scrapped?

Non-commercial vehicles and commercial vehicles have different scrapping periods, as detailed below: Scrapping regulations for non-commercial vehicles: For household 5-seat sedans and 7-seat SUVs, there is no usage period limit for non-commercial small and micro vehicles. When the normal mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the state will guide the scrapping. In addition to the above vehicles, small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles, large non-commercial sedans, and wheeled special machinery vehicles also have no usage period limit. Common scrapping regulations for commercial vehicles: Small and micro taxi passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 8 years, medium-sized taxi passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 10 years, and large taxi passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 12 years. Public transport passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 13 years, other small and micro commercial passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 10 years, and large and medium-sized commercial passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 15 years. Micro commercial trucks have a scrapping period of 8 years, light and large commercial trucks have a scrapping period of 10 years. The vehicle scrapping process is as follows: The car owner applying for scrapping and renewal must fill out the "Motor Vehicle Change, Transfer, Modification, Suspension, Scrapping Approval Application Form" in duplicate and affix the owner's seal. The registration office will accept the application and issue a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" for vehicles that have reached the scrapping period. For vehicles that have not reached the scrapping period, after inspection by the motor vehicle inspection office, if they meet the scrapping standards, a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" will be issued. The owner can choose a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle with the "Notice". The recycling company will dismantle the vehicle and take photos after verifying the "Notice". The engine must be separated from the vehicle, the engine block must be broken, and the frame (chassis) must be cut. The owner must submit the "Change Form", "XX Province Vehicle Renewal Technical Appraisal Form", "Scrapped Vehicle Recycling Certificate", and photos of the dismantled vehicle to the motor vehicle inspection office for verification and signature. The license plates will be reclaimed, and the application will be submitted for approval according to regulations to complete the scrapping registration. Special Notes: According to Article 30 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", if the vehicle cannot be driven back to the place of registration due to damage, the owner can sell the scrapped vehicle to a local motor vehicle recycling company. Commercial vehicles converted to non-commercial vehicles must be scrapped according to the original commercial vehicle scrapping period. According to Article 43 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", after completing the transfer or deregistration of a motor vehicle, the original owner can apply to the vehicle management office to use the original license plate number when registering a new vehicle. The application to use the original license plate number must meet the following conditions: (1) The application must be submitted within six months after the transfer or deregistration; (2) The owner must have owned the original vehicle for more than three years.

How to Maintain Proper Driving Vision?

Posture determines the viewing angle, and speed determines the viewing angle. Learn to scan with peripheral vision. Here are the detailed explanations: Extended Information: Maintaining the correct driving posture is essential. Do not push the seat too far forward just to get a better view. Generally, the minimum viewing distance is roughly equal to the speed in numbers—for example, at 80 km/h, you should see at least 80 meters ahead. Important Notes: The faster the speed, the farther your vision should extend to avoid fatigue. Avoid fixating on the road surface; instead, move your gaze and use peripheral vision to check the rearview mirror, road surface, and roadside vehicles and pedestrians for overtaking or jaywalkers.

Can You Release the Clutch in Neutral Gear for a Manual Transmission?

You should not release the clutch in neutral gear for a manual transmission. Here are the relevant details: Operational Requirements: After depressing the clutch and shifting into gear, if the car's speed has not yet increased, the clutch should be released slowly. Releasing the clutch too quickly can cause the engine to stall. You can wait until the clutch is fully released before applying throttle. Additional Information: For automatic transmissions, it is crucial not to coast in neutral gear when going downhill. Coasting in neutral on a downhill slope is highly dangerous. In case of an emergency, if the transmission is in neutral, the drivetrain is disconnected from the engine, and the car lacks engine braking assistance. This not only reduces braking effectiveness but can also cause the vehicle to lose stability and skid sideways.

Will the car be damaged if the gears grind when shifting?

Severe wear of the internal gears in the transmission can occur, leading to the vehicle's inability to shift gears or engage them. Below are the specific details regarding the issue: Fault Information: Grinding gears when shifting indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's clutch system. Possible fault points include the clutch disc in the clutch system wearing to its limit, resulting in incomplete clutch disengagement, which causes the grinding noise when shifting. Additional Information: When shifting gears, always remember the principle "accelerate before upshifting, decelerate before downshifting." Before upshifting, press the accelerator to increase the speed first, and before downshifting, release the accelerator to reduce the speed first.

Do You Need to Start the Car to Turn on the Air Conditioning When Resting in the Car?

For conventional fuel-powered vehicles, the engine must be running to use the air conditioning. Here's the explanation: Reason: The air conditioning in a conventional fuel-powered car relies on the engine to operate. If the car is not started, the air conditioning cannot be used. In contrast, electric vehicles can run the air conditioning without starting the car. Additional Note: While it is technically possible to turn on the air conditioning without starting the car, the air coming out will only be natural air blown by the fan. This is because the air conditioning compressor is powered by the engine, and when the car is off, the compressor does not function. The fan, which blows natural air, is powered by the battery. However, prolonged use of the fan can drain the battery excessively, potentially leading to long-term battery depletion.
