Start in first gear, shift to second gear when reaching 10 km/h, shift to third gear at 20 km/h, shift to fourth gear at 30 km/h, and shift to fifth gear at 40 km/h. Gear shifting should be completed within 100 meters, with the gear order increasing sequentially from low to high. Below is a detailed introduction about car gears: 1. Speed aspects: First gear corresponds to a speed of 0-5 km/h. Second gear corresponds to 5-20 km/h, third gear to 20-40 km/h, fourth gear to 40-60 km/h, and fifth gear to 60-100 km/h. 2. Gear shifting timing: Generally, the gear shifting timing for most cars is when the engine reaches 2000 rpm, and should not exceed 2500 rpm. For some high-displacement, high-power engines, shifting can be done around 3000 rpm.

What to Do If You Can't Read When Taking the Driving Test?

For picture-based questions, first look at the question, the answer is in the picture. If you can't read, just answer by looking at the picture. For multiple-choice questions, look at the options. If three are the same, choose the different one. People who can't read can still register for the test, but it's very difficult and they need to find ways to overcome it. For true/false questions, look for keywords in the question. Candidates who know some characters can memorize by rote, passing the exam by memorizing graphics and answers. Divide the keywords into 'correct' and 'wrong' words. If you see a 'correct' word, choose √; if you see a 'wrong' word, choose x.

How to shift to neutral in a Buick Excelle automatic transmission when the battery is dead?

First, locate a plug marked with the word 'SHIFT' near the gear shift lever of the vehicle. Then, use a pin to insert into the gap of the plug to pry it open. 3 is also a forward gear, where the transmission automatically shifts between 1st and 3rd gears in this position. You can remove the plug. 2 represents 1st or 2nd gear, used for starting on slippery roads or as a limiting gear for slow forward movement. 1 is simply 1st gear. After that, insert the vehicle key into the small hole, or you can use another long object. Then you can shift the gear to the N (neutral) position.

What Causes Vibration When Braking?

Vibration when braking is caused by uneven wear of the brake discs or the use of inferior brake pads. Brakes are mechanical braking devices that can slow down the speed of a vehicle, also known as decelerators. The car's brake pedal is located below the steering wheel. Pressing the brake pedal causes the brake linkage to be pressurized and transmitted to the brake pads on the brake drum, which then clamp onto the brake disc, slowing down or stopping the vehicle. The manual brake in a car is located next to the gear shift and is connected to the brake lever. Common examples also include bicycle brakes, which rely on rod-shaped brakes fixed to the frame or disc caliper brakes to slow down. Braking is achieved through intense friction between the brake pads and the brake drum.

What does the evmode button mean?

evmode stands for pure electric mode, and its function is to switch to electric mode. The evmode button is only available in hybrid vehicles. When the evmode button is pressed, only the electric mode is used, and the engine does not participate in power output. The following introduces three driving modes of hybrid vehicles: 1. EV mode: EV mode is purely electric-driven. When the battery is low, the engine automatically starts to drive and charges the battery. When the battery reaches a certain level, the engine automatically shuts off. 2. ECO mode: Through the cooperation of the engine and motor, it is environmentally friendly and fuel-efficient, providing a smooth and comfortable driving experience. 3. PWR mode: The powerful driving force brought by the dual-engine drive of the engine and motor allows for more free and dynamic driving.
