The GL8 should use 95 octane gasoline, as it is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine that utilizes variable valve management technology and can perform intelligent cylinder deactivation. This engine has specific fuel requirements, and only 95 octane or higher gasoline can ensure stable engine operation. Gasoline is a volatile, flammable hydrocarbon mixture liquid derived from petroleum through distillation, cracking, or pyrolysis, and it is used as fuel. The GL8 is a 5-door, 7-seat MPV with a fuel tank capacity of 66 liters. In terms of body dimensions, it measures 5238mm in length, 1878mm in width, and 1776mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3088mm.

What does KEY mean on a car?

KEY on a car refers to the key. Typically, for vehicles equipped with smart keys, if the car cannot detect the key (e.g., the smart key is not inside the car, is not within the effective range, or the key malfunctions), the KEY indicator light on the dashboard will illuminate. Car Smart Key: It utilizes the wireless remote control function of the central locking system, allowing you to unlock and lock the doors from a distance without inserting the key into the lock. Its working principle involves emitting a weak radio wave from the key, which is received by the car's antenna. The electronic control unit then identifies the signal code, and the system's actuator (motor or electromagnetic coil) performs the locking or unlocking action. Key Usage Precautions: Do not expose the key to environments below 0°C or above 50°C, as this will significantly reduce the battery's lifespan. Keep the key in a dry environment, as moisture can degrade battery performance. Avoid placing the key with hard objects, as this can scratch the chrome plating on the key. Do not place the key near high-power electrical appliances such as TVs, microwaves, washing machines, or computers, as this may cause the key to malfunction.

Is a handwritten signature still required after signing electronically upon passing the Theory Test (Subject 1)?

An electronic signature is sufficient. The Theory Test (Subject 1) covers the most fundamental traffic regulations including road traffic safety laws, traffic signals, and driving rules. The test is scored out of 100, with 90 or above considered a passing grade (inclusive of 90). Candidates are given two attempts per test session. If both attempts are unsuccessful, a new test appointment must be scheduled, typically with a one-week interval. Below are introductions to other subjects in the motor vehicle driver's license examination: 1. Subject 2 Test: This subject primarily evaluates basic driving skills through assessments such as reverse parking, hill start and stop, parallel parking, curve driving, and right-angle turns. 2. Subject 3 Test: This is the actual road test, examining essential driving operations including light usage, starting procedures, turn signal application, gear shifting, and roadside parking. 3. Subject 4 Test: Administered after passing the road test, this subject focuses on safe and civilized driving requirements, safe driving knowledge under complex conditions, and emergency handling procedures.

When reversing, do you turn the steering wheel in the direction you want the car to go?

When reversing, you turn the steering wheel in the direction you want the car to go. To adjust the rear of the car, you need to turn the steering wheel in the direction you want the rear to move. Similarly, when moving forward, to adjust the front of the car, turn the steering wheel in the desired direction. Here are some key points to note when reversing: 1. Master the basic technique: Before reversing, stay calm, observe the surroundings carefully, and decide whether you want the rear of the car to go left or right. Turn the steering wheel left to make the rear go left, and right to make it go right. At the same time, determine the appropriate amount of steering by using reference points in the rearview mirror. 2. Correcting the car's position: When the rear of the car drifts to one side, correct it by turning the steering wheel in the opposite direction. Only after the steering wheel is returned to the correct position can you turn it in the opposite direction to change the direction of the rear. Turning the wheel before it is fully corrected will only reduce the degree of drift. 3. Note: Avoid the habit of turning the steering wheel while the car is stationary, as this can damage the vehicle. If you need to move the car back and forth several times, make sure to turn the wheel in the opposite direction just before the car comes to a complete stop during each movement.

What is the difference between 80 mph and 80 km/h?

The difference between mph and km/h: The units are different. The unit for mph is miles per hour, while the unit for km/h is kilometers per hour. The speeds they represent also differ. Below are detailed explanations of mph and km/h: Explanation of mph: "Mph" and "kilometer" are completely different units. Many people equate "mph" with "kilometers per hour," but "mph" stands for miles per hour. According to unit conversion, 1 mile = 1609 meters, which is equivalent to 1.609 kilometers. 70 mph equals 70 miles per hour, which is 112.65 km/h, and 80 mph equals 80 miles per hour, which is 128.75 km/h. Explanation of km/h: For example, 80 km/h refers to a driving speed of 80 kilometers per hour, which is equivalent to 80 ÷ 1.6093 = 49.7 mph. One kilometer is approximately equal to 0.9144 meters. On the other hand, 80 mph refers to a driving speed of 80 miles per hour. 1 mile = 1609 meters, which is equivalent to 1.609 kilometers. 80 mph is approximately equal to 128.75 kilometers per hour.

What is the reason for not hearing the starting sound when the car is ignited?

Not hearing the starting sound when the car is ignited is caused by a lack of power in the battery, which requires jump-starting the car or replacing the battery. When the car engine starts, the battery supplies power to the starter and ignition system to make the engine run. When the battery is low on power, it will be difficult to start or even show no response at all when ignited. Battery protection: Usually, it is necessary to reduce the vehicle's power-on time, which refers to the vehicle being powered on without starting. Especially when not starting, avoid using the vehicle's multimedia system. After the vehicle is turned off, all power-consuming functions should be completely shut down. Only in this way can the battery consumption be reduced and the battery's service life be extended. Battery status: Generally, the service life of a battery can last two to three years, and with proper maintenance, it can last four to five years without any issues. The normal voltage of a battery is around 12V. When starting, the voltage will drop to 11V, and when the generator charges the battery, the voltage will reach 14V. If the voltage is only 10V or even less than 10V when starting, it indicates that the battery needs maintenance or replacement.

What does it mean to release the mortgage on the vehicle green title?

After obtaining an auto loan, the vehicle green title is mortgaged to the lending institution (the entity providing the loan, such as a bank or other financial institution), and the green title will record that the vehicle has been mortgaged to a specific institution. Only after the loan is fully repaid will the lending institution return the green title and note that the mortgage has been released. Below is relevant information about auto loans: 1. Unpaid loan: Before the loan is fully repaid, the ownership of the vehicle belongs to the lending institution, and the owner only has the right to use it. Ownership is only transferred to the owner after the loan is repaid, the mortgage release procedure is completed, and the green title is retrieved. 2. Repaid loan: Most banks require borrowers to sign a mortgage contract when applying for credit card installment car purchases, mortgaging the purchased vehicle to the bank. This measure is taken by banks to control risks in case the borrower defaults on payments. Once the borrower fully repays the loan, they can proceed to cancel the vehicle mortgage registration. 3. Mortgage release procedure: When applying for the release of the vehicle mortgage, it is essential to bring all necessary documents. The process of releasing the auto loan mortgage takes 1-2 weeks. Only after completing the entire procedure does the vehicle truly belong to the owner. If there are any uncertainties during the process, the bank's customer service can be consulted for assistance.
