ECO mode settings primarily utilize the multifunction buttons on the steering wheel and the information displayed on the instrument panel's LCD screen. Press the "OK" button among the right-side steering wheel buttons to enter the menu, then use the left and right arrow buttons to select the ECO mode. Use the up and down buttons on the steering wheel to turn off the ECO mode. When the display shows an "off" icon, it indicates that the ECO mode is currently set to off. Finally, press the "OK" button to confirm turning off the ECO mode and exit the menu, indicating that the ECO mode is deactivated and the vehicle exits the ECO mode.

When I first bought the Land Cruiser, I found the constantly active ECO mode quite annoying. Turning it off is actually not difficult. Just find the settings menu on the center console screen, tap on vehicle settings or drive control, and there you'll see the ECO option - simply uncheck it. If your model has a button near the steering wheel, you can press it to turn it off. After disabling it, the throttle response becomes much quicker, making mountain driving or acceleration for overtaking more powerful, though fuel consumption will be slightly higher. I usually keep it on for fuel efficiency in city traffic jams, but turn it off on highways. When operating, be careful not to randomly press the screen while moving - safety first. I suggest trying it out on flat ground first to get used to the feel, switching modes becomes very smooth once you're accustomed.

Having driven for many years, I've found that turning off the ECO mode on the Land Cruiser is straightforward. There's usually an ECO button near the instrument panel—press it once and the indicator light goes off, meaning it's deactivated. Alternatively, you can disable it through the central control system settings. The benefit of turning it off is that the engine power is fully unleashed, especially during off-roading or climbing hills, providing stronger performance compared to the sluggish feel when it's on. However, deactivating it increases fuel consumption, so keeping it on in city traffic with frequent stops can save fuel. Before operating, ensure the battery voltage is normal to avoid starting issues due to battery problems. For daily driving, switching modes based on road conditions is the most practical approach—don't overthink fuel efficiency; enjoying the drive is what matters most.

Does driving for 4 hours and a few minutes count as fatigued driving?

Fatigued driving is defined as continuously driving a motor vehicle for more than 4 hours without stopping for a break, or stopping for less than 20 minutes, and driving for more than 8 hours within a 24-hour period. According to relevant regulations, drivers who continuously drive vehicles other than medium-sized or larger passenger vehicles and hazardous material transport vehicles for more than 4 hours without stopping for a break or stopping for less than 20 minutes will be penalized with 6 demerit points and a fine. Below are some precautions for driving on highways: Drive in the designated lane: Highways have clearly marked lanes for large vehicles, small vehicles, etc. When overtaking, once you occupy a lane, promptly return to your own lane after completing the overtaking maneuver. Do not occupy other lanes for extended periods. Additionally, emergency lanes should not be occupied for non-emergency reasons. Maintain a safe speed and avoid speeding: The dangers of speeding are well-known, whether on local roads or highways, as it can lead to irreversible consequences. Maintain a safe following distance: Under normal conditions, with dry roads and good braking, the following distance (in meters) should not be less than the speed (in km/h). For example, at 80 km/h, maintain at least 80 meters; at 100 km/h, maintain at least 100 meters. Always pay attention to roadside distance markers. In rainy, foggy, snowy, or wet road conditions, the following distance should be doubled. Observe traffic signs: Always pay attention to roadside and overhead signs and markings while driving. Drive slightly to the right to avoid running over the right lane divider, providing sufficient lateral distance for vehicles behind to overtake. Do not arbitrarily occupy emergency lanes in case of accidents: Traffic accidents are inevitable on highways. If other vehicles cause an accident leading to lane blockage, do not occupy emergency lanes, as this may hinder rescue vehicles. Avoid fatigued driving and take timely breaks: Fatigued driving is extremely dangerous on highways. When fatigued, the body's reaction ability decreases, making it difficult to respond correctly to sudden situations.

How Many Liters of Fuel Can a 55-Liter Fuel Tank Hold?

55-liter fuel tank can hold up to 70 liters. Below is relevant information about fuel tanks: Fuel tank capacity: The fuel tank capacity refers to the maximum safe volume officially announced by manufacturers. For mini and compact cars, it ranges between 35-55 liters; for compact and mid-size cars, between 55-70 liters; while certain large full-size SUVs may exceed 100 liters. The capacity measures a vehicle's ability to carry fuel. The size of the fuel tank is directly related to the vehicle's fuel consumption—generally, a full tank allows for over 500 kilometers of driving. For instance, a car consuming 10 liters per 100 kilometers typically has a fuel tank capacity around 60 liters. The fuel tank capacity determines the driving range; for two cars with identical engines, the one with the larger tank can travel farther. Note: The actual capacity of a fuel tank exceeds its nominal capacity. According to fuel safety regulations, the nominal capacity is set at 95% of the rated capacity, allowing for approximately 10% more fuel when filled to the brim. For optimal fuel efficiency, avoid aggressive driving behaviors like sudden acceleration and braking, within safety limits.

Does switching from 5w30 to 5w40 affect the engine?

Switching from 5w30 to 5w40 does not affect the engine. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves multiple functions such as lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, as well as shock absorption. It is often referred to as the "blood" of a car. Below are the key functions of engine oil: Friction reduction: A sufficiently thick oil film separates the surfaces of moving parts, thereby minimizing wear. Sealing: Engine oil forms a seal between the piston rings and pistons, reducing gas leakage and preventing contaminants from entering. Rust prevention: Lubricant adheres to part surfaces, protecting them from water, air, acidic substances, and harmful gases. Shock absorption: When pressure in the engine cylinder rises sharply, suddenly increasing the load on pistons, piston rings, connecting rods, and crankshaft bearings, the lubricant transmitted through the bearings helps cushion the impact. Cleaning: High-quality engine oil carries away carbon deposits, sludge, and metal wear particles from engine components back to the oil pan, flushing away contaminants generated on the working surfaces through oil circulation.

What is the difference between 5w20 and 0w20?

0w20 has better low-temperature fluidity and cold resistance compared to 5w20. The 'W' stands for winter, indicating its use in winter conditions. The smaller the preceding number, the better the oil's fluidity in low-temperature environments. The number '20' represents the oil's viscosity at 100°C, with higher numbers indicating higher viscosity and better high-temperature resistance. Below is relevant information about engine oil: Introduction: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant (English name: Engine-oil), with a density of approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), serves functions such as lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, and shock absorption. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a car. Composition: Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary component of lubricants, determining their fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and enhance the base oil's performance deficiencies, imparting new characteristics. Additives are an essential part of lubricants.

How many kilometers can 5 liters of fuel run?

5 liters of fuel can generally run about 55 kilometers for most vehicles. Here are the specific details: Factors affecting fuel consumption: vehicle weight, car design, and road conditions. Vehicle quality, drag coefficient, engine technology, and tire type also play a role. Fuel consumption: The fuel consumption referred to here is the constant-speed fuel consumption, which is the vehicle's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers obtained in the constant-speed fuel consumption test specified by national standards for certain types of vehicles. This includes M1 category vehicles, M2 category vehicles with a maximum design total mass not exceeding 3.5 tons, and N1 category compressed natural gas vehicles; M1 category and N1 category vehicles with a maximum design total mass not exceeding 3.5 tons. It also includes M2, M3, N2, and N3 category compressed natural gas vehicles with a maximum design total mass exceeding 3.5 tons; M2, M3, and N category vehicles with a maximum total mass greater than or equal to 2 tons.

Is 5W-40 Oil Fully Synthetic?

5W-40 is just the viscosity grade of engine oil and cannot determine whether it is fully synthetic. Fully synthetic oil is usually indicated on the outer packaging. Mineral oil can also be labeled as 5W-40, semi-synthetic oil can be labeled as 5W-40, and fully synthetic oil can also be labeled as 5W-40. Below is an introduction to these types of engine oils: Mineral Oil: Mineral oil is the residue left after refining gasoline and heavy oil from petroleum. It is actually a natural oil with more impurities, cheaper compared to semi-synthetic and fully synthetic oils, has poorer lubrication for the engine, and a shorter service life. Semi-Synthetic Oil: Semi-synthetic oil is between mineral oil and fully synthetic oil. It contains a large number of anti-corrosion additives to improve the stability and oxidation resistance of the oil. Fully Synthetic Oil: Fully synthetic oil is the highest quality and most durable among these three types of engine oils, and it is also the most expensive. Generally, it can be used in passenger cars for 10,000 to 12,000 kilometers without deteriorating.
