Brake system warning light illumination is primarily caused by excessively worn brake pads. When this occurs, it is essential to inspect the vehicle's brake pads. Brake pads are consumable components that require regular replacement. As the vehicle's mileage increases, both the brake pads and brake discs will gradually wear down. Brake fluid is a crucial hydraulic fluid in the braking system, which also necessitates periodic replacement. Brake fluid is highly hygroscopic, and if its water content becomes too high, it can lead to extended braking distances and reduced braking force. When the brake fluid's water content reaches 3%, immediate replacement is required.

Why is the air volume greater in car's internal circulation than external circulation?

Car's internal circulation has greater air volume than external circulation because internal circulation not only needs to cool but also dehumidify, hence requiring more airflow. Below are detailed explanations about car's internal and external circulation: 1. Differences: Generally, external circulation is used when outside air quality is good, while internal circulation is used when outside air quality is poor. Additionally, external circulation should be used on highways, and internal circulation should not be used for prolonged driving. 2. Precautions: Driving on highways often involves long-distance travel, requiring the use of external circulation due to extended driving time. If internal circulation is used, because the vehicle is sealed and air cannot exchange with the outside, oxygen inside the car is consumed by breathing, leading to decreased oxygen levels and making the driver more prone to fatigue.

How Many Hours Does It Take to Charge a Small Electric Car?

Generally, the charging time takes 8-12 hours, but to avoid affecting the battery lifespan, it is not recommended to fully deplete the battery each time before charging. The charging methods for new energy electric vehicles are as follows: 1. Rated Current: Use a standard plug socket with a rated current not exceeding 16A to charge directly at home, which takes about 8-10 hours for a full charge. Household three-pin sockets come in two specifications: 10A and 16A, with the 16A plug and socket being larger in size. 2. Using an AC Charging Pile: Charge the electric vehicle using an AC charging pile, which connects the vehicle directly to a higher-current AC grid via the charging pile, taking about 4 hours to charge. The power of slow charging piles is typically 3.5kW and 7kW, depending on the rated input power of the vehicle's onboard charger.

Where are the accelerator and brake pedals located?

The rightmost pedal is the accelerator pedal, and to its left is the brake pedal. The positions and design purposes of these two pedals are as follows: Method to identify the accelerator and brake positions: In automatic transmission vehicles, the accelerator and brake are easier to identify. There are only two pedals located below the driver's console, arranged from left to right as the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal, both controlled solely by the right foot. Design purposes of the accelerator and brake: Based on ergonomics, the design aims to enable the driver to react quickly in emergencies. To prevent misjudgment while driving an automatic transmission vehicle, manufacturers set the accelerator pedal lower and the brake pedal relatively higher. This design helps avoid the dangerous situation where the driver might mistakenly press the accelerator instead of the brake during driving.

Where is the air intake of the GL8?

The GL8 has two air intake vents for the air conditioning system. One is the external circulation intake located at the air filter, and the other is the internal circulation intake situated below the center console inside the vehicle. Installation position of air intakes: Most vehicles' external circulation intakes are equipped with air filtration devices, such as pollen filters or dust filters, while the majority of internal circulation systems in vehicles do not have air filtration devices. Function of air intakes: They regulate the temperature inside the cabin, capable of both heating and cooling the air to maintain a comfortable cabin temperature. Additionally, the air intakes can draw in fresh air, providing ventilation.

What is the working principle of a shock absorber?

Shock absorber The working principle of a shock absorber is to repeatedly force the oil from one chamber to another. Here are the details: Working principle of a shock absorber: When there is relative movement between the frame and the axle due to vibration, the piston inside the shock absorber moves up and down, causing the oil in the shock absorber chamber to repeatedly flow from one chamber to another through various orifices. Function of a shock absorber: A good shock absorber can improve the wheel's contact with the ground, thereby enhancing the tire's grip. With improved grip, the vehicle's handling and comfort are also enhanced. The shock absorber is a crucial component in a car, as it directly affects the vehicle's handling and comfort.

How to Drive a Magotan Automatic Transmission?

After starting the engine, press the brake pedal and shift the gear lever to D (Drive). Release the handbrake and lift the brake pedal, and the vehicle will start moving forward slowly. In D gear, the vehicle will continue to move forward at low speed without pressing the brake pedal. For short stops, you can press the brake pedal while in D gear. For longer stops, press the brake pedal and shift to N (Neutral). Introduction to the 2018 New Magotan: 1. Body dimensions: Length is 4933mm, width is 1836mm, height is 1469mm, and wheelbase is 2871mm. 2. Configuration: In the design of the center console, the new Magotan features neatly arranged buttons without being rigid, and adds automatic parking and an engine start button.
