In cars, the DUAL and AUTO buttons are often displayed together. AUTO refers to the automatic air conditioning system, which adjusts the temperature and fan speed automatically based on weather, road conditions, and other factors when pressed. DUAL stands for dual-zone, meaning the driver and front passenger can independently control the air conditioning temperature and airflow according to their personal preferences. By pressing the DUAL button, the temperature for either the driver's seat or the front passenger seat can be adjusted separately, allowing for different temperature preferences between the two occupants in the car. The independent temperature zones enable flexible adjustments to meet varying comfort needs.

Can You Lock the Car with the Spare Key Inside?

If it's a smart key, you cannot lock the car with it inside. Using the spare key when the car key is locked inside: New cars usually come with two keys, and most car owners naturally keep one as the main key and the other as a spare. So when you accidentally lock yourself out of the car, the spare key can come in handy. Simply go back home to retrieve the spare key and unlock the car. Just remember not to leave the spare key inside the car again. Calling the 4S store's after-sales rescue service when the car key is locked inside: Besides using the spare key, the most reliable method is to call the 4S store's after-sales rescue service. A single phone call is all it takes, and you can wait for the rescue team to arrive and assist with unlocking the car.

Can a motorcycle still be inspected after being overdue for inspection for ten years?

If a motorcycle has not been inspected for 10 years, it cannot undergo a supplementary inspection. If it fails to participate in the annual inspection for three consecutive years, it will be forcibly scrapped. Motorcycle Annual Inspection Time: The annual inspection time for motorcycles is based on the purchase date. For new motorcycles within the first 4 years of purchase, an inspection is required every 2 years. After exceeding 4 years, an annual inspection is required. For the inspection, you only need to drive the motorcycle and bring the original ID card of the owner, the original vehicle license, the tax payment certificate for vehicle and vessel tax, and the compulsory insurance policy of the vehicle to a qualified local institution to complete the annual inspection. Motorcycle Annual Inspection Location: Where should a motorcycle undergo its annual inspection? Motorcycles should be inspected at the vehicle management office in the registration location, which is the place where the license plate was issued. Motorcycles within 4 years of purchase must be inspected every 2 years, and those exceeding 4 years must be inspected annually.

Should the Clutch and Brake Only Be Released in Neutral Gear?

No, when parking, you should first engage the handbrake, then shift to neutral, and finally release the clutch. Function of the Clutch: The role of the clutch pedal switch is to ensure smooth vehicle starting, achieve seamless gear shifting, and prevent overload in the transmission system. The clutch pedal switch is a normally closed switch. When the clutch is depressed, the switch opens, and the engine control unit receives no signal from the clutch, indicating the need to disconnect the engine linkage. Consequently, it reduces the ignition advance angle and decreases fuel injection to reserve power. Working Principle of the Clutch: The clutch's driving and driven parts transmit torque through friction between contact surfaces, using liquid as a transmission medium (hydraulic coupling), or magnetic transmission (electromagnetic clutch). This allows temporary separation and gradual engagement between the two parts, permitting mutual rotation during the transmission process.

What is the range of the BMW R nineT?

A 17L fuel tank provides a range of over 300 kilometers. Motorcycle fuel consumption calculation: First, record the odometer reading (L1) when the fuel level is high and the engine cuts off. Then, note the amount of fuel added (YL) during refueling. When the fuel level drops to the high level cutoff again, record the odometer reading (L2). Subtract L1 from L2 and divide by Y to get the kilometers per liter of fuel in actual driving conditions. Factors affecting motorcycle fuel consumption: Low-quality engine oil consumes more than high-quality oil, and lower viscosity oils consume more than higher viscosity ones. Engine temperature plays a significant role—low-speed high-load conditions and long-distance travel can cause excessive engine temperatures, drastically increasing oil consumption. Oil consumption also varies based on the engine's internal structure and lubrication method. Engines with more oil passages, higher pressure, and multi-point injection tend to consume more oil.

What are the criteria for ramp parking?

The evaluation criteria for the ramp parking and starting test item: improper parking, rolling back during start-up, and stalling will all result in point deductions. Point deductions: Stalling on the ramp deducts 20 points, while if the vehicle body is more than 30 centimeters away from the road edge line after stopping, 10 points are deducted. If the vehicle rolls back more than 30 centimeters but less than 50 centimeters after starting, 20 points are deducted. Failure: If the vehicle stalls on the ramp and fails to restart within 30 seconds, it will be directly judged as a failure. If the vehicle rolls back more than 50 centimeters during start-up, it will also be directly judged as a failure. If the front bumper is not positioned on the pole line when stopping, with an error within 50 centimeters, 10 points are deducted. Exceeding 50 centimeters will result in an immediate failure.
