When overtaking during the day, it is not necessary to alternate between high and low beams. Instead, you should turn on the left turn signal and honk the horn. Below is some information about daytime overtaking: 1. Regulations on light usage: The "Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law" have clear stipulations regarding the use of lights. Failure to use lights as required will result in a 1-point penalty. During periods when streetlights are on at night, or when driving in conditions of low visibility such as fog, rain, snow, dust, or hail, you should turn on the headlights, clearance lights, and rear position lights. When turning, changing lanes, overtaking, making a U-turn, or pulling over, you should turn on the turn signal 100 to 50 meters in advance. 2. Precautions: Whether during the day or at night, when overtaking on the highway or when you need to alert vehicles in front or behind, try to avoid using the horn. Due to the high speeds on the highway and significant wind noise, the horn is often unclear and less effective.

How to Determine Insufficient Brake Air Pressure?

Methods for determining insufficient brake air pressure are as follows: 1. Run the engine at medium or higher RPM for several minutes, then check if the air pressure gauge reading meets the standard. If all appears normal, the air compressor should be disassembled for inspection; 2. If the air pressure in the reservoir continuously rises when the engine is running without pressing the brake pedal, and continuously drops after the engine is turned off, this indicates air leakage in the pipeline between the reservoir and the intake valve of the control valve; 3. If the air pressure in the reservoir meets the standard but continuously drops after pressing the brake pedal, this indicates a fault between the brake valve and the brake chamber, which may be caused by pipeline leakage or diaphragm rupture.

What is the oil specification for summer?

In summer, the recommended oil specifications are 10W40 or 10W30, which are clearly marked on the oil bottle. During summer use, while ensuring proper lubrication, it's advisable to choose oil with lower viscosity based on the temperature range, engine temperature, and actual vehicle condition. For engines in good condition with minimal wear, lower viscosity oil is preferable. For engines with significant wear and larger clearances, slightly higher viscosity oil may be more appropriate. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves multiple functions including lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, as well as shock absorption and buffering.

What is the normal discharge current for a car?

The normal discharge current for a car is: below 40mA for domestic vehicles, and below 80mA for high-end cars. Set the multimeter to the maximum current measurement range, start the engine, and connect the multimeter test leads in series between the generator line and the battery. The position of the multimeter's pointer indicates the operating current of the car and the discharge current. A car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of battery that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. The commonly referred-to car battery is a lead-acid battery, which is mainly composed of lead and its oxides, with a sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte.

What does National IV represent?

National IV represents the fourth stage, which refers to the National Fourth Phase Motor Vehicle Pollutant Emission Standards. The main pollutants emitted by vehicles include hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. Through the application of technologies such as improved catalytic converter active layers, secondary air injection, and exhaust gas recirculation systems with cooling devices, these standards aim to control and reduce vehicle emissions below specified limits. As the environmental hazards caused by vehicle emissions become increasingly severe, countries and regions worldwide have successively established limits on vehicle exhaust emissions. The European standards set by the European Union serve as a reference standard adopted by most countries and regions. China's National I, II, III, and IV emission standards are based on the emission limits of European I, II, III, and IV standards, respectively.
