It is normal for the high-pressure pipe of a car's air conditioning to be hot. Here is the relevant information: 1. Reason: The refrigerant in the pipe has just been compressed by the compressor, and the refrigerant here should be in a high-temperature and high-pressure state, which can be understood based on the working principle of the car's air conditioning. Therefore, it is normal for the high-pressure pipe of the car's air conditioning to be hot to the touch. 2. Refrigerant: Judging whether the air conditioning system is functioning well is actually very simple. If you find that the air conditioning is not cooling well, the airflow is small, or it is not cooling at all, you need to check whether each component is functioning normally and whether there is a lack of refrigerant. The refrigerant must be added according to the model specified in the car manual. These can all be handled at a professional shop.

How often should an electric vehicle be charged?

Electric vehicles generally need to be charged every 150-200 kilometers of driving. During the charging process, the temperature of the electrolyte should be frequently measured. Methods such as reducing the current by half, stopping charging, or cooling should be used to control the temperature between 35-40 degrees Celsius. If the specific gravity of the electrolyte does not meet the required standards after the initial charge, adjustments should be made using distilled water or an electrolyte with a specific gravity of 1.4. After adjustment, charge for another 2 hours until the specific gravity meets the required standards. Currently, the popular pure electric vehicles in China have a range of 150-200 kilometers per charge (theoretical value), while some imported vehicles can achieve a range of over 500 kilometers. Different new energy electric vehicles have varying charging times. Precautions for charging electric vehicles: Avoid overcharging or over-discharging the battery: During the charging process, it is essential to control the charging time reasonably to avoid overcharging. Overcharging can cause the battery to overheat, which may lead to dangers such as spontaneous combustion or explosion. While driving, it is necessary to monitor the battery level. If the battery indicator shows the red zone, the driver should stop driving and charge the vehicle as soon as possible. Driving with insufficient battery power can significantly increase the battery's wear rate. Recommend daily charging: Many people struggle to grasp the appropriate charging frequency for electric vehicles. For short distances, charging every two to three days may suffice. However, it is recommended that drivers charge their vehicles daily. This practice keeps the battery in a shallow cycle state, which is more conducive to extending its lifespan and benefits the driver. Pay attention to the charging plug: If poor contact is observed in the charging plug during the charging process, it should be addressed promptly to avoid overheating. Prolonged overheating of the plug can lead to a short circuit, which may damage both the charger and the battery.

Do I Need to Queue for a Number for the Subject One Exam?

There is no need to queue for a number for the Subject One exam. Neither Subject One nor Subject Four has a fixed order. After receiving the exam materials, candidates should queue up at the exam room on their own, and those who queue first will take the exam first. Seats for the Subject One exam are randomly assigned. Once the exam room is full, candidates must wait for the next batch of exams. Only when a computer becomes available after the previous batch of candidates finishes will the invigilator allow the corresponding number of candidates to enter for the exam. Subject One Exam Process: Bring all documents and enter in advance: Candidates who have successfully scheduled the exam must bring their appointment information and ID card and arrive at the scheduled location before the scheduled time to prepare for the exam. Those without prior appointments are not allowed to enter. Wear a mask to enter the exam room: Before entering the exam room, candidates must wear a mask and present their "health code," cooperate with staff for temperature checks and relevant information registration. Candidates with fever or cough are not allowed to enter and will be treated as absent. Receive the form and queue for the exam: After receiving the exam materials, candidates should queue up at the exam room on their own, and those who queue first will take the exam first. Identity verification: After entering the exam room, candidates usually need to swipe their ID card for identity verification and remove their mask for facial recognition. After verification, the corresponding seat number will be displayed on the computer screen, and candidates can proceed to the designated seat for the exam. Exam answering: From the moment the ID card is swiped upon entry, the exam information will be displayed on the computer at the corresponding seat. Follow the prompts to record a video, and then begin answering questions. If a question is answered incorrectly, it will be immediately indicated, and a red mark will appear on the right side of the answer sheet. If 11 questions are answered incorrectly, candidates can apply for a retake at the identity verification point where they entered. Sign and leave: After the computer-based exam, the score will be displayed on the screen. Click "Confirm" to complete the exam, then sign at the invigilator's desk to validate the score. If the retake is failed, the exam will be terminated, and the candidate can schedule the next exam.

Can I Take the Subject 2 Test at a Different Test Center?

It is possible to schedule the Subject 2 test at a different test center. Currently, the driver's license test system is interconnected across various districts within the city, allowing students to choose their preferred test venue and register online. Subject 2 Test Scheduling Methods: The driving school can assist students in scheduling the test, or students can independently schedule it online. The scheduling for the Subject 2 test is arranged based on the total number of applicants for that day. Subject 2 Test Notes: Before the test, wear comfortable clothing and prepare mentally. When reversing into the parking space, pay attention to key points—avoid turning left or right. During parallel parking, ensure the rear wheels do not cross the edge line of the parking space, adjust the distance properly, and remember to use the turn signal and honk. For the 90-degree turn, steer sharply once the reference point is aligned. During the curve driving, make wide turns after entering the curve, maintaining a steady speed. Avoid crossing any lines during these maneuvers. After completing the test, drive the car back to the starting position, sign the confirmation, and then turn off the engine. Mock Test: The purpose of the mock test is to familiarize candidates with the test environment and allow the instructor to point out areas where points are easily deducted. When attending the test, be sure to bring your ID card. Without it, you cannot take the test. Ensure your phone is turned off during the test, as any sound from the phone may be considered cheating.

How many points are deducted for rolling back during hill start in Subject 2?

During the hill start in the fixed-point parking on a slope, if the vehicle rolls back less than 30 cm, 10 points are deducted; if it rolls back more than 30 cm, 100 points are deducted. Other point deduction items are as follows: After parking, if the right side of the vehicle body is more than 30 cm away from the roadside line, 10 points are deducted; if it is more than 50 cm away, 100 points are deducted; if the wheel rolls over or touches the line, 100 points are deducted. After parking, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line and the deviation is within 50 cm, 10 points are deducted; if the deviation exceeds 50 cm, 100 points are deducted. After parking, if the parking brake is not fully engaged, 10 points are deducted. If the start is not completed within 30 seconds, 100 points are deducted. Stalling once during the start results in a 10-point deduction. If the gear is not in neutral or park when starting the engine, 100 points are deducted. Key points for fixed-point parking on a slope: Upon hearing the instruction for "fixed-point parking on a slope" (approximately 20 meters from the pole), turn on the right turn signal, steer appropriately to the right, and drive slowly along the right side of the road, paying attention to the distance between the vehicle body and the right-side line. When the vehicle is about 10 meters away from the parking pole, approach the target slowly, accurately, and steadily. Accurately estimate the target by aligning a specific point on the windshield (or hood) with the parking pole (this point should be determined during practice due to differences in vehicle models and driver heights). When the windshield point aligns with the parking pole, meaning the vehicle's bumper aligns with the pole line, stop immediately.
