Here is an introduction about 'door': 1. The 'door' in a car refers to the reading light's activation mode. 'Door' means 'door', and on the reading light, it means that when the car door is opened, the overhead light will turn on. 2. If the car door is opened or not closed properly: the 'door' light will also turn on, serving as a warning. 3. The interior reading light generally has three position switches: off, on, and door. When the reading light's control switch is in the 'door' position, if the car door is opened, the light will turn on; when the driver exits the car and removes the key, the reading light will stay on for 15 seconds before turning off; when the mechanical key is not inserted into the ignition switch, turning the ignition switch to the LOCK position will also activate the light. When the driver's side door is locked, or the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, regardless of the state, the reading light will turn on; when the reading light's switch is in the OFF position, the light will not turn on no matter the vehicle's state.

Should a right-turning vehicle that has already entered the intersection yield to a straight-going vehicle?

At an intersection without directional traffic signals, turning vehicles must yield to straight-going vehicles. The following are extended details: When motor vehicles pass through intersections controlled by traffic signals, they shall proceed according to the following rules: At intersections with designated lanes, enter the appropriate lane based on the intended direction of travel; vehicles preparing to enter a roundabout must yield to vehicles already inside the roundabout; when turning left, turn from the left side of the intersection center point. Activate the turn signal when turning and use low beams when driving at night; proceed in sequence when the signal permits; stop in sequence behind the stop line when the signal requires stopping. If there is no stop line, stop before entering the intersection; when turning right and encountering a vehicle in the same lane waiting for the signal, stop and wait in sequence; at intersections without directional signal lights, turning motor vehicles must yield to straight-going vehicles and pedestrians. Right-turning vehicles from the opposite direction must yield to left-turning vehicles. When non-motor vehicles pass through intersections controlled by traffic signals, they shall proceed according to the following rules: Turning non-motor vehicles must yield to straight-going vehicles and pedestrians; do not enter the intersection if there is traffic congestion ahead; when turning left, turn from the right side of the intersection center point; when the stop signal is given, stop in sequence behind the stop line. If there is no stop line, stop before entering the intersection; when turning right and encountering a vehicle in the same direction waiting for the signal, proceed if possible within the lane, otherwise wait in sequence.

How many kilometers should a car run before a major maintenance?

A car should undergo a major maintenance every 15,000 to 20,000 kilometers. In addition to the first maintenance, it is also necessary to check the engine condition, tire wear degree, and the status of other fluids and wear parts. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. The replacement of engine oil and oil filters is mainly for the maintenance of the lubrication system. The main function of the lubrication system is to effectively lubricate various parts of the car engine to prevent excessive wear. Inspection items such as brake fluid, transmission oil, battery, throttle, fuel injector, brake pads, and other components should be maintained and serviced according to their usage conditions.

How to Remove the ETC Stuck on the Car Window?

You can use a hair dryer to heat the double-sided tape behind the ETC device, then use a small plastic spatula to remove it. Below is some related information about ETC: 1. ETC, translated into Chinese as an electronic toll collection system, is an automatic toll collection system for highways or bridges. It uses dedicated short-range communication between the vehicle-mounted electronic tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, along with computer networking technology for backend settlement with banks, allowing vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay the toll. 2. Note that the ETC device cannot be removed and installed on another vehicle for use. Different vehicle types have different highway toll rates, so the ETC device is dedicated to a specific vehicle.

How many kilometers can you drive after the fuel light comes on?

Generally, you can continue driving for more than 30 kilometers after the fuel light comes on. However, it is not advisable to completely drain the fuel tank before refueling during vehicle usage, for the following reasons: 1. When the fuel level is low, significant lateral tilting can affect the fuel pump's operation. In addition to providing power to the vehicle, fuel also serves a cooling function. If the fuel pump operates without adequate cooling, there is a risk of overheating and damage. 2. Over time, a certain amount of impurities accumulate at the bottom of the fuel tank. When the vehicle is nearly out of fuel, the fuel pump will work harder to draw in fuel, potentially sucking some of these impurities into the engine, which can severely impact the internal components of the engine.
