In manual transmission vehicles, the auto start-stop function is enabled by default after ignition via key or push-button start. To deactivate it, press the OFF button below the center console until the indicator light illuminates. Below are relevant details: 1. Engine auto start-stop automatically shuts off the engine during temporary stops while driving (e.g., at traffic lights). The system restarts the engine when resuming motion. Its English abbreviation is STOP&START (STT). The STT intelligent fuel-saving system controls engine startup and shutdown. 2. This feature reduces engine idling and running time, thereby decreasing fuel consumption.

Should You Use D or S Gear When Driving on the Highway?

When driving on the highway, use D gear, as it is the forward drive gear. In D gear, the transmission automatically shifts gears based on the vehicle's speed, either upshifting or downshifting as needed. S gear, or Sport mode, allows for manual gear shifting, but with delayed shift timing, keeping the engine at higher RPMs to increase power output. Therefore, S gear is typically used for overtaking or climbing steep slopes, where extra power is needed for quick acceleration. Below are related details about gear functions: 1. P (Parking) - Parking gear: Used when the vehicle is parked and not in use. In this position, the wheels are mechanically locked to prevent rolling. Always ensure the vehicle is completely stopped before shifting into P gear to avoid damaging the automatic transmission. 2. R (Reverse) - Reverse gear: Used for reversing. Never shift into R gear before the vehicle has come to a complete stop, as this can severely damage the transmission. 3. N (Neutral) - Neutral gear: Used for temporary stops (e.g., at a traffic light). This position disengages the transmission, but always apply the brake to prevent rolling on slopes. 4. D (Drive) - Forward drive gear: Used for normal driving on regular roads. 5. S (Sport) - Sport mode: In this mode, gears can be manually shifted, but with delayed timing to maintain higher engine RPMs for increased power. Note that using S gear will result in higher fuel consumption.

What is the QR code for motor vehicles?

The VIN code of the car. That is, the vehicle identification number, the ID card of the car. Here is the relevant information: 1. Scan the QR code to understand the illegal parking situation: A QR code is added to the illegal parking notice, and the owner can scan the QR code to understand the details of the violation. This usage is only for understanding illegal parking information and does not involve payment functions. 2. Scan the QR code to follow WeChat or download the APP: You can complete the online payment of the ticket. Just like the application of the Wuhan Jiangxia Traffic Squadron above, a QR code is added to the illegal parking notice. After scanning the QR code, you can follow the traffic police's WeChat or download the APP for violation penalties, and then complete the processing of the violation through the WeChat or APP entrance, such as paying fines. 3. Remind the owner through the QR code on the car: This is not to print the QR code on the illegal parking notice, but is related to the vehicle violation. This is a QR code that each vehicle owner receives from the traffic management department and sticks on the car window. This QR code is bound to the owner's information.

What is the principle of steering during a car skid?

Introduction to the principle of steering during a car skid: Because the braking is stopped, the wheels are released from the locked state, which improves the lateral adhesion. Turning the steering wheel in the direction of the skid increases the turning radius of the car to reduce centrifugal force. After the car is straightened, the steering wheel should be smoothly turned back to its original position. The following is a related introduction: 1. Safe meeting: During driving, do not follow the car in front too closely. When encountering an oncoming car, pay special attention to observing the road surface. Do not randomly turn the steering wheel or step on the brake during the meeting to avoid skidding and causing a collision accident. 2. Preventing skidding: If the front wheels skid, stabilize the throttle and correct the direction to drive out. When the rear wheels skid, turn the steering wheel in the direction of the skid, and after the rear wheels are straightened, drive back into the lane. When encountering rear wheel skidding on a downhill slope, you can appropriately press the throttle to increase the speed, and after the skid is eliminated, drive at the original speed.

Where is the tow hook located on the Changan Eado?

The Changan Eado only has a tow hook at the front, located below the front grille. Here is some additional information: 1. Tow Hook: Used to connect vehicles during towing. There are generally two types: one is located at the front of the vehicle, making it convenient for a broken-down vehicle to be towed by a rescue vehicle; the other is located at the rear, typically found on SUVs, trucks, pickups, and other vehicles with higher torque, used for towing other vehicles. This means these vehicles can serve as "rescue vehicles." 2. Precautions: When installing the tow hook, press around the edges of the tow hook cover repeatedly to find an angle to open it. If this doesn’t work, you can use a tool to assist in prying it open for installation. After towing, reinstall the tow hook cover for future use.
