Yes, but going through all the questions will increase your passing rate. Below is the relevant information: Exam content: The main content includes: safe and civilized driving operation requirements, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and knowledge on handling traffic accidents. Subject 4: Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. After the implementation of "Order No. 139 of the Ministry of Public Security of the People's Republic of China," the Subject 3 test was divided into two parts. In addition to the road test, a safety and civilization knowledge test was added, commonly referred to as "Subject 4," which assesses "driving ethics."

How to Turn on the Heater in a Car AC?

After starting the car, wait for the temperature indicator to reach the middle position, then turn on the heater after about 8-15 minutes (some cars have a red heating mode, while others use a sun symbol), and set the AC to internal circulation. Do not turn on the A/C switch because the heater utilizes the car's own heat cycle. The direction of the warm air is generally toward the front and the feet. The specific steps are as follows: 1. After starting the car, wait about 8-15 minutes until the water temperature rises to the normal level, then you can turn on the heater. 2. Adjust the AC circulation mode to internal circulation. 3. Switch to the heating mode, which is indicated by a red zone in some cars and a sun symbol in others. 4. Do not turn on the AC (do not activate the A/C switch) because the heater uses the car's own heat cycle. 5. Adjust the AC to a suitable setting and direct the airflow from the vents. 6. The warm air is usually directed toward the front and feet, while the cold air is directed forward.

What gear should an automatic car be in when reversing?

When an automatic car is stopped at a red light: If the expected wait time is less than 30 seconds, keep it in D gear + foot brake; if the expected wait time is more than 30 seconds, shift to N gear + handbrake; if the expected wait time is more than 2 minutes, shift to N gear + handbrake + turn off the engine. More details on gear selection when stopped at a red light are as follows: 1. Consider the waiting time. If it's less than 30 seconds, simply press the brake and keep the car in D gear. 2. If the wait is longer than 30 seconds, shifting to N gear is a more reasonable choice, and use the handbrake if on a slope (there's no need to shift to P gear). 3. The most reasonable way to handle gear selection at a red light is to shift to N gear and engage the handbrake, which applies to both manual and automatic cars. However, we should still be flexible in different situations. If the red light is very short, there's no need to shift to neutral—just keep it in D gear and brake gently.

What to Do When the Car Display Screen Freezes?

There are many reasons that can cause the car display screen to freeze, which can generally be divided into two situations: one is freezing during use, and the other is being unable to restart when in standby mode. Below are solutions for a frozen display screen: 1. Third-party software. First, check if any new software has been downloaded recently. The freeze may be caused by unstable programs or insufficient memory. In this case, it is necessary to delete some memory and uninstall the related software. 2. Hardware damage. Next, examine the hardware to see if the screen is damaged, if there is an issue with the wiring, or if the IC and motherboard are causing the freeze, which is the most common phenomenon. If it is a hardware problem, the only solution is to take it to a 4S shop for maintenance or to a repair shop for inspection. 3. System upgrade. Check if the car system software has not been upgraded to the latest version, which could cause the display screen to freeze. If so, simply upgrade the software version. 4. Replace the navigation device. Finally, if many methods have been tried and none work, the only option is to have the car inspected and replace the navigation device with a new one.

What does a circle with a slash on the Volkswagen Polo dashboard mean?

A circle with a slash on the dashboard represents average values, corresponding to metrics such as average fuel consumption or average speed. For example, if the dashboard currently displays this symbol with "17Km/h," it indicates the current average speed is 17 km/h. Similarly, if the circle with a slash is followed by "XXL/100km," it refers to the average fuel consumption. In reality, dashboard symbols are not limited to these—there are various others, such as: A little person carrying a large sword. This alerts you that the seatbelt is not fastened while driving. Buckling up significantly enhances personal safety during travel. A little person sitting on a toilet. This is not actually indicating someone using the toilet in the car but rather displays the temperature, showing a marker for -4°C. A teapot dripping water. This is the engine oil pressure warning light. When starting the engine, oil pressure hasn’t yet built up, so this light may illuminate for a second before turning off as pressure normalizes. This is more noticeable in winter but is normal and not a cause for concern. There are many symbols displayed on the dashboard, each with different meanings. When a symbol appears, promptly refer to it to identify the cause.

What is the standard for matching engine speed and gear?

Shift to second gear when the engine speed is approximately 1000-1500 RPM and the speed is 10 km/h. Shift to third gear when the speed reaches 30 km/h. Shift to fourth gear when the speed reaches 40 km/h. Shift to fifth gear when the engine speed is around 2500-3000 RPM. Driving modes: Launch mode: Maintain the engine speed at around 4000 RPM. At this point, the torque output is at its maximum. When the clutch is released, the car will surge forward with the strongest burst of power, and the drive wheels may spin slightly. However, if the throttle is well controlled, idling can be minimized. Cornering mode: When cornering, if the throttle is opened too much, a high-powered rear-wheel-drive car may experience oversteer or even spin. Therefore, the speed should not be too high, depending on the horsepower. For a front-wheel-drive car like the 206, even with the throttle pressed, higher speeds are manageable as front-wheel-drive cars have better directional correction capabilities. Snow/Ice mode: Avoid skidding as much as possible. Apply less throttle when starting, or even start at a near-idle speed. In low gears, the speed generally should not exceed 3000 km/h.

What does the TC with a slash light mean in a car?

The appearance of a TC with a slash icon on the dashboard indicates that the traction control is turned off. TC stands for Traction Control System, which ensures that the vehicle obtains optimal traction under various driving conditions. There are three possible reasons for this indicator light to illuminate: 1. The function was manually turned off via the button. 2. Driving too fast on wet or muddy roads. 3. A malfunction in the traction control system. More details about traction control are as follows: 1. The traction control system is also known as the anti-slip regulation system. When braking on slippery surfaces, the wheels may skid, potentially leading to loss of directional control. Similarly, during acceleration or sudden acceleration, the drive wheels may also skid, especially on icy or slippery roads, posing a risk of losing control. 2. The traction control system relies on electronic sensors to detect when the driven wheels' speed is lower than that of the drive wheels. It then sends signals to adjust ignition timing, reduce throttle opening, downshift, or apply braking to the wheels to prevent skidding. The traction control system not only enhances driving stability but also improves acceleration and climbing capability.
