How to use the electric parking brake: To park the vehicle, simply press the brake pedal to bring the vehicle to a complete stop, shift the gear into P position, and press the parking brake function button. When restarting the vehicle, shift the gear into D position, and the electronic parking brake will automatically release upon pressing the accelerator pedal. Alternatively, you can press the brake pedal and press the electronic parking brake switch to release it. The car's electronic parking brake, also known as the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB), is marked with a "P" button in the vehicle. Its working principle is the same as the traditional mechanical handbrake, both achieving parking control through the friction generated between the brake disc and brake pads. The only difference is that the control method has changed from the previous mechanical handbrake to an electronic button.

What Liquid is Most Harmful to Car Paint?

Car paint is most vulnerable to tree sap. Here are the specific reasons and protective measures: 1. Specific reasons: Tree sap and resin have extremely high concentrations and are highly corrosive to car paint. If the car is not washed within a day, marks will immediately appear on the paint surface. Among the common greening tree species in southern regions, mango trees and banyan trees are particularly harmful. Parking under these trees for just a few hours will subject the car body to a saturation attack from sap and fruit. Additionally, acid rain can also damage car paint. With increasing urban pollution, rainwater is often acidic, corroding the paint and causing it to lose its luster and oxidize. 2. Protective measures: Avoid parking under mango trees and banyan trees whenever possible; try to park indoors; apply a protective film to the car; and dry the car body as soon as possible after rain.

What causes unstable idle speed within seconds after starting the car?

Detailed explanation and solutions for unstable idle speed immediately after starting the car are as follows: 1. Excessive engine carbon deposits: When there is too much carbon buildup inside the engine, the fuel injected by the injectors during startup will be largely absorbed by the carbon deposits, resulting in an overly lean air-fuel mixture. This makes starting difficult and causes idle speed fluctuations during startup. Solution: Perform carbon cleaning. 2. Overused air filter: If the air filter is not replaced in time, it can cause insufficient air intake, lowering the engine idle speed and leading to engine vibration. Solution: Replace the air filter. 3. Low ignition energy: During a cold start, the internal temperature of the engine is insufficient, requiring the injectors to spray more fuel to meet power demands. The fuel needs higher ignition energy, but increased spark plug gap can reduce ignition energy, affecting performance and causing vehicle vibration. Solution: Warm up the vehicle.

Why is Toyota's TNGA Architecture Safer?

Here are the reasons why Toyota's TNGA architecture is safer: 1. Globally synchronized safety standards. Vehicles under the TNGA architecture adhere to stringent safety performance standards, capable of withstanding authoritative crash tests both domestically and internationally, without differentiation—consistent across all markets. 2. Standard safety features across all models. Unlike other brands where safety features vary significantly between high and low trim levels, TNGA architecture ensures that vehicles of all levels come equipped with a large number of higher-class safety features as standard. 3. Comprehensive protection safety standards. TNGA's safety standards are not limited to certain occupants but extend to all, including the driver, passengers inside the vehicle, and pedestrians outside. In the C-IASI tests, several GAC Toyota TNGA models achieved "GOOD" ratings in occupant safety and pedestrian protection indices.
