A half circle with an exclamation mark indicates a tire pressure fault in the vehicle. Here are the specific details: 1. Introduction: Tire pressure, strictly speaking, refers to the air pressure inside the tire. In terms of car maintenance, the engine is the heart of the car, and its damage will lead to the end of the car's life. Similarly, tire pressure is the blood pressure of the car, and the level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the performance and power of the car. 2. Function: When a car is driving at a constant speed on a level road, it must overcome the rolling resistance from the ground and the air resistance. The tire pressure has a significant impact on the rolling resistance coefficient. When the pressure decreases, the rolling resistance coefficient increases rapidly. This is because when the tire pressure decreases, the deformation of the rolling tire increases, leading to increased hysteresis loss. Therefore, appropriate tire pressure is essential for ensuring good dynamic performance of the car.

What is the best method to remove oil film from the windshield?

The best methods to remove oil film from the windshield are: 1. Take the car to an auto beauty shop for glass polishing; 2. Purchase ready-made oil film removal products from the market. Before use, clean the car to avoid scratching the glass with attached sand particles. Spray the cleaner evenly on the glass, scrub vigorously, and finally rinse with water or wipe clean with a damp towel; 3. Use a household towel dipped in dishwashing detergent to scrub the front windshield forcefully; 4. Baking soda toothpaste contains abrasives that can clean tiny pores on the glass surface; 5. An eraser or car wash clay has adhesive properties that can stick to and remove the oil film; 6. Newspapers have some oil-absorbing effects. Dip them in water and wipe repeatedly to remove the oil film.

How early can I renew my driver's license?

You can renew your driver's license up to 90 days in advance. The renewal must be processed at the local vehicle management office. The required documents for renewal include ID card, driver's license, medical examination certificate, photos, etc. The vehicle management office is mainly responsible for handling motor vehicle registration, modification, transfer, mortgage, cancellation, driver's license application, replacement, renewal, inspection, and other related services for motor vehicles and drivers. The specific renewal process is as follows: 1. Take a photo at a photo studio with driver's license photo qualifications; 2. Make copies of your ID card and residence permit; 3. Undergo a medical examination at a hospital designated by the vehicle management office and obtain the medical examination report; 4. Go to the vehicle management office, take a number, wait in line, and fill out a driver's license application form, then attach the photo; 5. When your number is called, submit the materials to the staff at the vehicle management office and wait for the review. If the materials are complete, the review will be quickly approved; 6. After approval, pay the driver's license fee, then submit the receipt with the payment stamp to the staff and wait to receive your new license.

Is the turn signal up-right-down-left?

Automotive turn signals follow an up-right-down-left pattern. The turn signal switch is typically installed on the left side of the steering wheel, and its operation method can be summarized as up-right-down-left. Drivers simply need to imagine the turn signal lever as the steering wheel and activate the corresponding direction for the intended turn. Principle of automotive turn signals: The lamp uses a xenon tube, controlled by a microcontroller circuit, with alternating left-right flashing in uninterrupted operation; a flasher is employed. Based on their structure, they can be categorized into three types: resistance wire type, capacitor type, and electronic type. The resistance wire type can further be divided into thermal wire type (electrothermal) and vane type (spring-action), while the electronic type can be subdivided into hybrid type (with contact-type relays and electronic components) and fully electronic type (without relays). For example, the spring-action flasher utilizes the thermal effect of electric current, using thermal expansion and contraction as the driving force to cause sudden movement of the spring plate, thereby connecting and disconnecting the contacts to achieve light flashing. Function of turn signals: To alert pedestrians or other vehicles of the intended turning direction; to indicate overtaking and lane-changing directions; when both left and right turn signals are activated simultaneously, it indicates that the vehicle is in an emergency situation, alerting other vehicles to pay attention.

What is the correct method for parking an automatic transmission car?

The correct method for parking an automatic transmission car is: 1. After reaching the parking spot, press the brake pedal until the vehicle comes to a complete stop; 2. Shift the gear lever to N (Neutral) without releasing the brake; 3. Engage the handbrake, adjusting its tightness according to the slope of the ground—pull it tighter when parking on a slope; 4. After engaging the handbrake, release the foot brake. If parked on a slope, the vehicle may slightly move; 5. Once the vehicle is stable, press the brake again and shift to P (Park), then exit and lock the car. Explanation of automatic transmission gears: P (Park) is used when the vehicle is parked and not in use, locking the wheels mechanically to prevent rolling; R (Reverse) is for reversing; N (Neutral) is for temporary stops (e.g., at traffic lights); D (Drive) is the forward gear, used for normal driving.

What does Lane Change Assist mean?

Lane Change Assist, also known as Blind Spot Monitoring, works by alerting the driver to vehicles in the blind spots on either side of the rearview mirrors or other areas. During driving, blind spots during lane changes are difficult to eliminate due to vehicle design, as the mirrors always leave some areas out of the driver's sight. Therefore, Lane Change Assist functions similarly to common parking sensors. However, it is only a warning system and does not assist the driver in completing the lane change maneuver. The driver must still observe and judge the situation, as safe driving requires awareness and good driving habits.

How to Turn on the Low Beam Headlights?

Methods to turn on the low beam headlights: 1. Knob type: Located on the lower left side of the steering wheel, below the air conditioning vent, the knob has four patterns: O, auto, parking lights, and low beam headlights. There is an arrow indicator on the knob. Rotate it to the right to the low beam headlights pattern position to turn them on. 2. Lever type: The switch is on the lever to the left of the steering wheel. Simply rotate the lever to the low beam headlights position to turn them on. The low beam headlights have a range of approximately 30 to 40 meters. According to experiments, when driving at 55 km/h at night, if you immediately apply the brakes upon detecting a situation, the stopping distance is exactly 30 meters. This means that when you spot something within the low beam headlights' range and stop immediately, there will be no gap between the car and the object, assuming the car condition, road condition, and driver's reaction are all optimal.
