Eco mode is divided into active eco driving mode and non-active eco driving mode. The difference between the two is that the active mode has a dedicated button, while the non-active mode does not have a dedicated button and only serves as a reminder or guide. Below is a related introduction about ECO mode: When to use: Most cars adopt the active eco driving mode, which means they have an independent switch button. During daily driving, you can turn on the eco mode. However, it is unnecessary to activate eco mode when the speed exceeds 120 km/h, during idle parking, in N/P gear, or in manual mode, especially when climbing a slope. Doing so may not reflect the fuel-saving characteristics of eco mode and could even affect the vehicle's power performance. Eco mode usually becomes ineffective under the following circumstances: (1) When the vehicle speed exceeds 120 km/h, the car will prioritize speed, and the eco mode will automatically deactivate. (2) During idle parking or in N/P gear or manual mode, the eco mode may also become ineffective. (3) When high torque output is required, such as when climbing a slope, the engine control unit will prioritize ensuring sufficient power to drive the vehicle, and the eco mode will not function either.

Can You Park in a Damp Underground Garage?

You can park in a damp underground garage for a short period, but not for an extended time. A humid environment not only increases the risk of minor vehicle malfunctions but can also lead to accidents such as pedestrians slipping and falling. Solutions for a damp underground garage: 1. Enhance ventilation: Utilize the entrance and exit passages of the garage to improve air circulation, thereby reducing humidity. Ventilation can be achieved through natural airflow facilitated by architectural design or through artificial means to maintain a balance between the garage's humidity and the external environment. 2. Use a dehumidifier: If opting for a dehumidifier, it's advisable to consult professionals to determine the appropriate dehumidification capacity. The selection of a dehumidifier should not be based solely on area and ceiling height but should consider the overall moisture load of the space.

Is It Okay If a Car Wades Through 40 cm of Water Without Stalling?

Generally speaking, if a car wades through water without stalling, there should be no problem. However, it is best to check it out, especially if the water depth has exceeded half of the tire height, as it may affect the vehicle's electrical system and onboard computer. It is advisable to conduct an inspection. After exiting the water, gently apply the brakes to dry the brake pads by friction. Additionally, it is recommended to check the air filter, fuel filter, and battery for any signs of water ingress or moisture. Below are some precautions for driving in rainy conditions: 1. Reduce Speed: Regardless of road width or surface conditions, drive slowly in the rain and always be aware of the distance between vehicles ahead and behind. Prepare mentally for emergency measures. Visibility is low in rainy weather, and the vehicle's braking distance and emergency performance may be reduced. Therefore, slow down in advance to allow sufficient time and space to handle situations safely. 2. Maintain Distance: Rainy conditions obstruct visibility, so it is crucial to maintain a safe distance from other vehicles and continuously monitor the distance ahead and behind. Keep a greater distance from large vehicles, as they can block your view and may create waves that smaller vehicles cannot handle, potentially disrupting your driving. 3. Use Fog Lights: In rainy weather, make full use of fog lights to enhance driving safety. If necessary, turn on hazard warning lights to ensure that vehicles behind you are aware of your movements. 4. Do Not Restart If Stalled: During heavy rain or storms, some roads may flood quickly. If you must drive through water, do so at a steady speed in a low gear. If the vehicle stalls while moving, do not attempt to restart it immediately, as doing so may severely damage the engine. Instead, contact a professional repair service immediately. Only restart the vehicle after a technician has inspected it and confirmed it is safe to do so.

What causes the EBD light to come on?

When the EBD light comes on, it indicates an issue with the Electronic Brakeforce Distribution control system. Here are some details about the EBD light: 1. Function of the EBD light: The EBD light automatically detects the adhesion conditions between each wheel and the road surface, then appropriately distributes the braking force generated by the system to all four wheels. 2. Principle of the EBD light: During vehicle braking, it instantly calculates the friction values of all four tires caused by different road adhesion conditions. It then adjusts the braking system to rapidly modify the braking force according to preset programs while in motion, achieving optimal balance between braking force and friction (traction) to ensure vehicle stability and safety.

How Severe Is the Radiation from Pure Electric Vehicles?

Pure electric vehicle electromagnetic radiation is not severe and falls within the normal range. Electromagnetic radiation is the primary source of radiation in electric vehicles, and it is safe and harmless as long as it remains within the national regulatory limits. Drivers and passengers in electric vehicles are just as safe as those in hydrogen, gasoline, or diesel-powered cars. No electric vehicle exposes its occupants to electromagnetic fields exceeding international safety standards. The highest magnetic field values in electric vehicles occur near the floor, around the battery itself, and when the vehicle starts. In all cases, exposure to the magnetic fields inside an electric vehicle is less than 20% of the safety limits recommended by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). Measurements taken at head level are consistently below 2% of these limits. New energy vehicles refer to those that use unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources (or use conventional vehicle fuels with new types of onboard power devices), integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and drive systems to form vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and innovative structures. New energy vehicles include four main types: hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), pure electric vehicles (BEV, including solar-powered vehicles), fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV), and other new energy vehicles (such as those using supercapacitors, flywheels, and other high-efficiency energy storage devices). Unconventional vehicle fuels refer to fuels other than gasoline and diesel.

What is an RT tire?

RT refers to off-road tires designed for professional off-road terrains, specifically hybrid all-terrain tires, which fall between MT and AT tires. Off-road tires are broadly categorized into: LT tires, AT tires, RT tires, and MT tires. AT refers to all-terrain off-road tires, HT refers to urban off-road tires, and MT tires are mud tires designed for muddy conditions. Off-road tires, in general, are suitable for driving in the wild, featuring larger tread blocks, deeper grooves, and thicker sidewalls compared to passenger car tires. Below is a detailed introduction: LT tires, or light truck off-road tires, have softer sidewall materials and better quietness, but their drawback is poor performance on unpaved roads. AT tires, also known as all-terrain tires, have harder treads and more rugged patterns. They are the most commonly used tires for modified SUVs, suitable for both off-road and urban driving, offering stronger grip and wear resistance on unpaved roads. RT tires outperform AT tires in off-road capabilities, with slightly coarser tread patterns than typical AT tires. Their noise level is slightly higher than AT tires but lower than MT tires. They excel in grip, off-roading, and rock crawling compared to AT tires. MT tires, commonly known as mud tires, have even coarser tread patterns and larger tread blocks than RT tires, providing better mud-clearing performance and traction on rocky terrains. However, they produce more noise on paved roads. Tips for choosing tires: Always select new tires that match the original tire size. Aggressive driving accelerates tire wear, so opt for durable tires. For highway or freeway driving: Prioritize tires with the shortest braking distances on both dry and wet surfaces for maximum safety. For comfort during long trips, choose tires that minimize bumps and noise. Performance-oriented drivers should lean toward high-performance tires. For city driving: Opt for tires with the shortest braking distances on dry and wet roads to handle urban hazards like pedestrians. Longevity is key—tires endure engine power, braking forces, and road contact, leading to tread deformation and wear. Choose tires with extended mileage life. Fuel efficiency is also important—tires with lower rolling resistance save fuel. For RT tires in daily use, pay attention to the following: Regularly inspect tires for cracks or deformities. As treads wear down, their grooves shallow, reducing water dispersion and grip, significantly impacting vehicle performance. Small cracks can lead to blowouts at high speeds. Also, promptly remove stones lodged in grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on surfaces with thick, sharp, or jagged rocks. Keep tires away from oil, acids, or other substances that degrade rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Avoid splashing water to cool overheated tires. In hot weather or after high-speed driving, tires may overheat, increasing pressure. Let them cool naturally—never deflate or splash water, as this can cause abnormal tread aging. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent excessive tread wear from tire-ground dragging.
