How to Use the Auto Hold Function in a Manual Transmission Car?

To use the auto hold function in a manual transmission car: With the seat belt fastened and the door closed, the driver simply needs to press the AUTOHOLD button or the button marked with an 'A' when needed. When stopping, pressing the brake will activate the auto hold. To start moving again, shift gears, release the clutch while applying the throttle, and the auto hold function will automatically deactivate. The principle of auto hold is that the controller provides precise parking force through the slope sensor. During startup, the parking control unit calculates information from the clutch distance sensor, clutch engagement speed sensor, and throttle pedal sensor. When the driving force exceeds the running resistance, the parking brake is automatically released, allowing the car to start smoothly.

What are the symptoms of a car battery about to fail?

Symptoms of a car battery about to fail: 1. The vehicle is more difficult to start than usual, requiring multiple ignition attempts, indicating insufficient starting power; 2. When the vehicle is idling, the headlights quickly dim from bright, showing that the battery power is insufficient and needs replacement; 3. When the battery is nearing the end of its lifespan, it affects the alternator's performance, often causing abnormal noises (usually a slight squeaking sound) during vehicle startup; 4. Normally, the vehicle runs fine, but occasionally, after parking, you may find the entire vehicle without power upon restarting. This happens because, as the battery nears the end of its life, the starting current is insufficient, leading to increased oxidation at the battery terminals and resulting in a complete loss of power.
