How to Match the Tire Pressure Monitoring System on Baojun 310?

Baojun 310's tire pressure monitoring system requires professional computer equipment for rematching, and it is recommended to visit a 4S dealership for system matching. When tire pressure is too high, the tire surface becomes curved, reducing the contact area with the ground. A vehicle's power output relies on the static friction generated between the tires and the ground. Insufficient contact area can lead to sliding friction, resulting in loss of power and torque output, especially noticeable during rapid acceleration. Conversely, low tire pressure causes uneven wear, with the center of the tire wearing less and the sides wearing more. This also increases rolling resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption. Low tire pressure also increases the risk of a blowout because the softer tires undergo repeated deformation during high-speed driving, generating excessive heat that can cause a blowout. Therefore, it is essential to inflate the tires according to the manufacturer's recommended standards.

What are the methods for car anti-theft?

Here are the methods for car anti-theft: 1. After parking and removing the key, turn the steering wheel until you hear a click (steering wheel locked). 2. Install an anti-theft device and ask the technician to adjust the vibration sensitivity higher, so that it will alarm at the slightest vibration. 3. After parking, you can shift into reverse or first gear to prevent the car from being pushed. 4. Install a steering wheel lock bar. Below is an introduction to anti-theft devices: 1. Mechanical anti-theft devices: including hook locks, steering wheel locks, and gearshift locks, which mainly rely on locking the clutch, brake, throttle, steering wheel, or gearshift to achieve anti-theft purposes, but they only prevent theft without alarm. 2. Electronic anti-theft devices: including card-type, button-type, and remote-control types, which mainly rely on locking the ignition or start to achieve anti-theft purposes, while also having anti-theft and sound alarm functions. 3. Network anti-theft devices: including the Global Positioning System (GPS) and the Car Anti-theft Device (GQF), which silently transmit alarm information and the location of the alarmed vehicle to the alarm center.

What does 'track' mean on a car?

TRACK is commonly used in audio systems, referring to the sequence number of songs, for example, the first song in the directory is Track1. Below is a detailed introduction to car audio systems: 1. Signal source equipment: Signal source equipment includes radio frequency modulation devices and recording playback devices (such as cassette tapes or CDs). 2. Radio: The radio is a wireless receiving device specifically designed to receive broadcast programs. 3. Amplifier: The amplifier amplifies the voltage and power of each program signal to drive the speakers to produce sound. 4. Speaker system: Speakers are crucial components that determine the audio performance inside the car and are the terminal of the car audio system. To enjoy stereo effects, two or more speaker systems are used in the car. A multi-speaker system does not combine speakers with the same characteristics but reproduces the sound in the optimal frequency band of each speaker. 5. Car antenna: To receive wireless signals from outside the car, car radios are equipped with outdoor antennas. To ensure signal reception while the car is moving, the radio antenna is omnidirectional. Since the antenna is installed outdoors, it must have good waterproof, shockproof, and anti-interference characteristics.

What is the Chinese equivalent of Euro VI for vehicles?

Euro VI for vehicles is equivalent to the China VI-A (National VI-A) standard, but it is lower than the China VI-B (National VI-B) standard. Here is an introduction to vehicle emission standards: 1. Concept: Vehicle emission standards refer to regulations on the content of harmful gases emitted from vehicle exhaust, including CO (carbon monoxide), HC+NOx (hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides), and PM (particulate matter, soot). 2. Emission Standards: Currently, there are two main vehicle emission standards: the European standard and the Chinese national standard. The European standard is implemented through the emission regulations of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (ECE) and the emission directives of the European Economic Community (EEC). The Chinese national standard is formulated based on China's specific conditions and is implemented in three phases. 3. Current Implementation Status: The China 6 emission standard is implemented in two phases. In the first phase, starting from July 1, 2020, all vehicles sold and registered must comply with the China VI-A standard. In the second phase, starting from July 1, 2023, all vehicles sold and registered must comply with the China VI-B standard.
