The ASR in the car is turned on by default and does not require manual operation. More information about ASR is as follows: 1. ASR is the Anti-Slip Regulation system, full name: Acceleration-Slip-Regulation, which is an active safety device for cars, also known as the traction control system. It prevents the driving wheels from slipping when starting or accelerating, especially for high-powered vehicles, to maintain the stability of the vehicle's driving direction. 2. The principle of ASR: When the driving wheels slip, ASR compares the speed of each wheel, and the electronic system determines that the driving wheels are slipping. It automatically reduces the throttle intake and lowers the engine speed, thereby reducing power output and braking the slipping driving wheels.

When using the ASR (Anti-Slip Regulation) system in my car, I always keep it enabled by default. The system automatically activates after starting the engine, and you can find a small button with a skidding car icon near the steering wheel or on the center console. Pressing it once turns off the light, indicating the system is deactivated, and pressing it again turns the light back on to reactivate it. I remember last time when driving on a rainy, slippery highway, my wheels almost lost traction and control, but the ASR instantly cut excess power, stabilized the car, and helped me avoid danger. So, I usually leave it on to silently protect acceleration safety. I only temporarily turn it off in special situations, like when stuck in snow during winter and needing to floor the throttle to escape, and then immediately turn it back on afterward to avoid misuse. The operation is simple, and even new drivers can easily get the hang of it. Just pay attention to the dashboard indicator light to ensure it’s functioning properly, especially in bad weather, and check it periodically to prevent malfunctions. This feature boosts driving confidence and significantly reduces accident risks.

Safety comes first when driving, and I always ensure the ASR (Anti-Slip Regulation) function is functioning properly. The system is enabled by default after ignition to prevent wheel slippage during acceleration. To operate it, simply press a dedicated button, usually located on the control panel like a small switch, to toggle its status off. I rarely turn it off because it automatically reduces engine output on wet or muddy roads to stabilize the vehicle. Once during heavy snowfall, my wheels were deeply stuck, and timely activation of ASR helped me escape the predicament. Remember, it's best to keep it enabled on normal roads, and for special terrains, a simple press temporarily disables it. The key is to develop the habit of checking the indicator light every time you start the car—if it's off, it means the system is successfully activated, allowing you to drive worry-free and avoid accidents.

As a beginner, I initially didn't understand how ASR works. My friend told me it's an anti-wheel slip function that activates automatically after starting the car, requiring no manual operation. The button location? Check left/right of steering wheel for marked keys - press to disable (like turning off lights), but normally keep it on. Particularly useful in rainy conditions for slip prevention. Easy to operate with no complex settings required. Practice more to familiarize with button positions.

Using the ASR system is quite intuitive. Just find a dedicated button in the car, press it to toggle the status on or off. By default, it's enabled to automatically sense wheel speed differences and reduce slip risks. The operation takes only a few seconds—simple and hassle-free. It's best to keep it enabled. In special situations like being stuck in mud, briefly turn it off to accelerate, then turn it back on. Remember not to disable it long-term to avoid safety hazards. During normal driving, it runs in the background without interference, offering peace of mind.

What to Do When an EFI Scooter Fails to Start?

When turning the key, if there is no sound of the fuel pump operating, check whether the EFI system fuse is blown and whether the fuel pump relay is damaged. Replace the fuse or relay if necessary. If there is an operating sound, remove the fuel injector (keeping the connector connected) and press the start button. Check the corner marker lines and connector connections, repair any abnormalities, and inspect the strength of the magneto signal. Observe whether the fuel injection is properly atomized.

How to Use Brakes on a Scooter When Going Downhill?

Scooters should avoid or use the front brake cautiously when going downhill, relying mainly on the rear brake. During emergency braking, both the rear and front brakes can be applied simultaneously, but the front brake force should be lighter and engage slightly later than the rear brake. This is because downhill riding shifts the center of gravity forward. Using only the front brake or applying excessive front brake force increases the risk of losing control or flipping over.
