Generally speaking, if the car doesn't stall when wading through water, there should be no problem. Here are the specific details of the related content: 1. Inspection: If the water depth has already exceeded half of the tire, it may endanger the entire vehicle's electrical system and the onboard computer, so it's best to conduct an inspection. When just exiting the water area, apply the brakes slightly to dry the brake pads by friction. It's advisable to check whether the air filter, fuel filter, and battery have been submerged or dampened. 2. Reason: The exhaust has outward pressure, so under normal driving conditions, it won't backflow. The reason the car shakes when water enters the intake is that while the car is moving, the water is not flat but wavy, causing intermittent blockage and release, which leads to restricted air intake. After stalling, a self-check will reveal an intake fault, and the engine fault light will come on.

Do I still need to engage the electronic handbrake when in P gear?

Yes, it is necessary. The electronic handbrake is a technology that achieves parking braking through electronic control. For prolonged parking, the handbrake must be engaged; otherwise, it may damage the locking mechanism of the automatic transmission. Here is some relevant information about the electronic handbrake: 1. Principle: The electronic handbrake is a technology that achieves parking braking through electronic control. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, both relying on the friction generated between the brake disc and brake pads to control parking braking. The only difference is that the control method has changed from the previous mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. 2. Function: The electronic handbrake has evolved from the basic parking function to include the automatic parking function AUTO-HOLD. The application of AUTO-HOLD automatic parking technology eliminates the need for drivers to maintain prolonged braking when the vehicle is stationary. When the automatic electronic parking brake is activated, it can prevent unnecessary sliding of the vehicle.

Adjust hand positioning on the steering wheel: Place your left hand at the 9 o'clock position and your right hand at the 3 o'clock position.
