Whether checking for faults at a 4S shop is free depends on the car's warranty period. Different car brands have different regulations. If the warranty period has expired, a labor fee will be charged for fault detection. Additional information is as follows: 1. Auto repair labor fee: The auto repair labor fee refers to the time and cost required for the repair workers to fix the car, i.e., the labor service fee generated by the working time spent by the repair workers in diagnosing and repairing the car. Therefore, the main component of the labor fee should be the cost of human labor. 2. Free inspection: If there is a fault in the vehicle, there are two scenarios when going to a 4S shop for inspection. One is that after the fault is detected, the car is repaired at the 4S shop, in which case the inspection fee will be waived. The other is that the fault is detected but the car is not repaired at the 4S shop, in which case the 4S shop will charge an inspection fee.

The following is a related introduction about ternary lithium batteries: 1. Materials: "Lithium batteries" are a type of battery that uses lithium metal or lithium alloy as the anode material and non-aqueous electrolyte solutions. 2. Development history: Lithium metal batteries were first proposed and studied by Gilbert-N. Lewis in 1912. In the 1970s, M.S. Whittingham proposed and began researching lithium-ion batteries. Due to the highly reactive chemical properties of lithium metal, the processing, storage, and use of lithium metal impose very high environmental requirements.

Does running the air conditioning while the car is parked affect the vehicle?

Running the air conditioning while the car is parked can harm the vehicle. Additional details: 1. Operating the air conditioning while the car is idling increases fuel consumption and can lead to more engine carbon buildup. 2. While the air conditioning compressor is indeed driven by the engine, the blower fan is powered by the battery. During idling, the car may not necessarily charge the battery, and excessive use of the blower fan can drain the battery, potentially causing long-term power loss. 3. Running the air conditioning while the car is idling may also pose health risks, and in severe cases, it can be life-threatening. This is because, in a relatively enclosed space, exhaust fumes from the car may be drawn into the cabin, leading to carbon monoxide poisoning.

How Many Days to Clear Overtime Driving Records?

Here are the methods to clear overtime driving records: Enter the menu and select the corresponding function. If it's a locked video, formatting the card will suffice. Below is additional information on fatigue driving: 1. Fatigue Driving: If you drive continuously for 4 hours, only swapping cards without changing drivers and continuing to drive without rest, this is considered fatigue driving. This behavior is highly prone to traffic accidents because driving requires significant concentration. Fatigue driving can lead to delayed reactions, drowsiness, and physical weakness, making it difficult to promptly detect road conditions and take accurate driving actions. 2. Non-Fatigue Driving: If there are two drivers in the vehicle's cabin, and the cards are swapped within 4 hours with the driver changing for more than 20 minutes, this does not constitute fatigue driving.
