Octavia cruise control usage: 1. The switch is on the steering lever. Turn switch A to the "on" position. After turning it on, a corresponding icon (white) will light up on the driving display. When the car reaches a certain speed, press "set" and release the button to set the corresponding speed. 2. When using the cruise control system in Octavia, press the upper end "RES+" of B to accelerate and increase the speed. To decelerate, press the lower end "SET-" of B to reduce the speed. 3. There are two ways to cancel the cruise control in Octavia: one is the cancel button on the switch lever, and the other is automatic cancellation by stepping on the brake.

Using the cruise control in the Octavia is actually quite simple. I've been driving this model for years and find it super convenient. It's typically used when the speed is steady, like on elevated roads or highways. First, make sure the car is in a safe environment, such as when the speed is above 30 km/h. Then, there's a button on the steering wheel with a speed icon—press it to activate the cruise system. Next, while driving, adjust the speed to your desired value and confirm it with a button. There are plus and minus buttons for fine-tuning the speed. In case of emergencies, like if the car ahead slows down, simply press the brake to temporarily cancel it. You can reactivate and set the speed again once the road conditions improve. I love how it helps reduce fatigue on long trips, sparing me from constantly pressing the accelerator. But a reminder: avoid using it in rainy weather or on rough roads to prevent loss of control—rely on manual control instead. For maintenance, if the switch doesn’t respond, it might be a wiring issue, so check the fuse. Overall, this feature is designed very user-friendly, making driving a bit easier.

What is the fuel consumption of the Q50L?

The Q50L has a total of 11 models currently on sale, including the 2022 2.0T Comfort Edition, 2022 2.0T Enjoyment Edition, 2022 2.0T Luxury Edition, and others—all equipped with a 211-horsepower engine, featuring an NEDC fuel consumption of 7.4L per 100 kilometers. The fuel tank capacity varies across different Q50L models. The distance that can be covered on a full tank of fuel is as follows: For models equipped with the 211-horsepower engine, the fuel tank capacity is 76L, allowing a driving range of 76/7.4*100=1027KM on a full tank. Vehicle fuel consumption is directly influenced by five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and ambient temperature. Specific factors that increase fuel consumption include: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as rapid acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before stopping at traffic lights can increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Cars with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements, as higher displacement typically means greater power output, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier vehicles also tend to have higher fuel consumption due to the increased torque needed for propulsion. Road conditions: Driving on unpaved roads, muddy surfaces, soft terrain, or mountainous routes increases resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against strong winds or in windy conditions increases aerodynamic resistance, raising fuel consumption. Low ambient temperatures: When the engine block is cold, injected gasoline does not vaporize as easily during cold starts, requiring more fuel for combustion and thus increasing consumption. Additionally, in colder conditions, the engine control unit may command higher idle speeds to warm up the engine, further increasing fuel usage.

When Can You Schedule the Subject Four Exam After Passing Subject Three?

According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," the time varies depending on the type of license. Taking a Class C license as an example: After passing the Subject Three exam, you can take the Subject Four exam directly in the afternoon of the same day, without an appointment within 9 days, or schedule it after 10 days. Direct exam in the afternoon of the same day: Since Subject Four is the theoretical part of Subject Three, most cities schedule both Subject Three and Subject Four together when making the appointment. Therefore, on the afternoon of the day you pass Subject Three, you can go directly to the Subject Four exam venue to take the test. No appointment needed within 9 days: With the upgrade of driving test services, some cities have introduced a new model where no appointment is needed within 9 days. Candidates who pass Subject Three can take the Subject Four exam within 9 days by presenting their ID card at the Subject Four test center. Exam staff will group candidates for waiting: one group for no-appointment candidates and another for scheduled candidates, facilitating exam management by the test center. Scheduling after 10 days: The success of scheduling Subject Four depends on the current number of examinees, the priority of the candidates, and temporary arrangements at the test center. Candidates closer to the 3-year validity period have higher scheduling priority and are more likely to succeed. Additionally, unexpected events (such as the pandemic) that lead to exam suspensions can also affect the success rate of scheduling. Subject Four, also known as the Subject Four Theory Exam or Driver Theory Exam, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It includes requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, knowledge of safe driving under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge. Subject Four Exam Notes: Exam duration: The exam lasts 45 minutes. Number of questions: Depending on the type of license, 50 questions are proportionally selected from the corresponding Subject Four question bank, with each question worth 2 points. Question types: The exam includes single-choice questions (including true/false questions) and multiple-choice questions. The questions may involve animations, images, scenario recognition, or text descriptions. Retake notes: If you fail Subject Four, you only need to retake Subject Four. The driving school will schedule the retake, with no limit on the number of retakes. You can retake it until you pass, and no retake fee is required for Subject Four. Subject Four Exam Tips: Strengthen weak areas and identify the reasons for mistakes. For marked questions, don't just memorize the correct answer. Refer to regulations, textbooks, or reference books to understand and digest the reasons for errors. Categorize and summarize questions. Refer to the question bank analysis for classification and find similar questions: Many questions in the bank are similar and easily confused, so they should be analyzed and summarized. For example, traffic signs for walking, hiking, pedestrian caution, crosswalks, and crosswalk caution are very similar and easily confused. During study, categorize them to avoid mistakes. Find memory techniques: Many questions in the bank involve numbers. Summarizing these numbers can make them easier to remember. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject One, Subject Two, and Subject Three. Subject Three is divided into two parts. Subject Four is the colloquial term for the Subject Three Safe and Civilized Driving Knowledge Exam and is not a separate subject. Subject One refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam. Subject Two refers to the field driving skills exam. Subject Three refers to the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge exam. The safe and civilized driving knowledge exam is conducted after Subject Three.
