The signs before a car battery runs out of power: 1. When the battery indicator shows green, it means the battery is fully charged and in good condition; when the indicator shows black, it means the battery is low and needs charging; when the indicator shows colorless or light yellow, it means the battery is almost depleted. 2. If the charging light suddenly turns on while driving, or the voltmeter in diesel vehicles shows a sudden drop below 24 volts, it indicates a fault in the car's charging system, which stops charging the battery. At this point, the car is continuously draining the battery, which may lead to a dead battery. 3. When turning on the headlights at night with the engine idling, you may notice the lights dimming significantly and the engine shaking noticeably. Increasing the engine speed improves the brightness of the lights, but the condition persists even after driving at high speed for a while. This indicates that the car's charging system is functioning normally, but the battery is either low on power or unable to hold a charge.

Where is the brake located in an automatic transmission car?

In an automatic transmission car, the brake is located under the main driver's side console, with the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal arranged from left to right. Steps for braking in an automatic transmission car: 1. When braking in an automatic transmission car, the brake pedal should be pressed down evenly; 2. Control the force with which the right foot presses the brake, as some vehicles have very sensitive brakes that can produce strong braking force with just a slight pressure; 3. When going downhill, place the right foot on the brake pedal to control the vehicle's speed during descent. Automatic transmission usually refers to the car's automatic gear shifting mechanism, where the automatic transmission's control system selects the appropriate gear based on the engine's speed and load during driving, replacing the driver's subjective judgment of timing and gear shifting operations.

How to Turn on the High Beam on the Verano?

To turn on the high beam in the Verano, first rotate the knob on the lower left side of the steering wheel to the far right to activate the low beam. Then, push or pull the left control lever on the steering wheel to switch to the high beam. Generally, it is not recommended to use high beams in urban areas as the lighting conditions are usually adequate. High beams can easily dazzle oncoming drivers and pedestrians due to their elevated angle, impairing their vision and creating safety hazards. The Verano measures 4718mm in length, 1802mm in width, and 1466mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. The car's engine delivers a maximum horsepower of 125Ps, a maximum power of 92kW, and a maximum torque of 180Nm.

What are the symptoms of a loose universal joint?

The symptoms of a loose universal joint are: 1. Abnormal noises and oil leakage in the car; 2. The car's steering wheel becomes uncontrollable; 3. The car's direction wobbles or deviates. A universal joint is a component in a car that changes the angle to transmit force, altering the position of the car's drive shaft axis direction. It serves as the joint part of the universal drive in the car's drive system, combined with the car's drive shaft to form the universal joint drive assembly. In front-engine, rear-wheel-drive vehicles, the universal joint drive assembly is typically installed between the transmission output shaft and the drive axle's main reducer input shaft. The universal joint plays a role between the front axle half-shaft, which is responsible for both driving and steering, and the wheels.

Is the Reverse Light the Rear Fog Light?

Reverse lights are not rear fog lights. The reverse light turns on automatically when the car is put into reverse gear, while the rear fog light has a separate control switch and needs to be manually activated. The reverse light is installed at the rear of the car to illuminate the road behind and alert vehicles and pedestrians that the car is reversing. All reverse lights are white. The rear fog light, on the other hand, is specifically designed for use in foggy or rainy conditions when visibility is significantly affected by the weather, making the car more visible to other vehicles. The fog light is only used in foggy conditions and is not needed for normal reversing. Most cars have only one reverse light and one rear fog light, typically arranged with the fog light on the left and the reverse light on the right.
