In a car, 'door' in Chinese refers to the activation mode of the reading light. Its switch buttons are labeled 'on' and 'off'. The usage methods are as follows: 1. When the switch is set to 'door', the light turns on when the car door is opened; 2. When the switch is set to 'on', the reading light remains illuminated regardless of the vehicle's state; 3. When the switch is set to 'off', the reading light remains off regardless of the vehicle's state. The reading light in a car is a light installed above the driver's seat and in the middle of the rear seat ceiling. When the interior lighting is insufficient, it provides sufficient brightness for passengers to read comfortably without affecting the driver's normal operation.

As a long-term car owner, I use the car door every day when driving. In Chinese, 'door' on a car refers to the car door, including the front door and the rear door. The car door is not just a passage for entry and exit but also relates to safety design, such as the embedded steel plate that can absorb impact forces during an accident. In daily maintenance, I need to pay attention to the lubrication of the door hinges to prevent rust that may cause difficulty in opening and closing; the window lifting system also relies on the door frame, and water leakage may occur when the sealing strips age. Don’t slam the door too hard when closing it to avoid damaging the latch and affecting proper closure. For models with electric functions, the button-operated automatic opening and closing are very convenient, but extra caution is needed in winter as they can easily freeze. The car door is also equipped with child locks to prevent children from opening it from the inside, which is a must-know for families with kids. Overall, keeping the car door clean and conducting regular inspections can extend its lifespan and ensure trouble-free driving.

In my auto repair work, I've encountered countless issues. The car 'door' is simply referred to as the door in Chinese, including components like door panels and locks. During inspections, the first thing to check is the feel of the opening and closing; unusual noises often stem from loose or corroded hinges. A door not closing tightly might be related to damaged locking mechanisms or poor sealing. Replacing parts such as door handles or soundproofing strips is quite common, and DIY lubrication can serve as a temporary fix. However, safety features like anti-collision beam reinforcements must be professionally installed to avoid potential hazards. After washing the car, drying the door seams prevents freezing, and adding anti-slip covers to wet and slippery door handles on rainy days is a practical tip. In summary, paying attention to door maintenance can reduce troubles, and safety always comes first when driving.

As a young driver who frequently uses the car, the car door ("door" in Chinese is simply the car door, nothing complicated). The front door opens and closes easily for daily getting in and out, while the rear door is more convenient for loading things; the electric function is super cool—just press a button to operate, but don't play with it too much. Open the door slowly on rainy days to avoid slipping, and with the safety lock activated, children are safer. When I wash the car, I clean the door frame to extend its lifespan, making daily use more worry-free.

Can You Still Drive When the Car Displays 'Change Oil Immediately'?

You can still drive when the car displays 'Change Oil Immediately,' but the prompt indicates that the current oil level no longer meets the standard, so it is recommended to visit a 4S shop as soon as possible to replace the oil. Many modern car models are equipped with maintenance reminder functions. When the mileage or time approaches the maintenance cycle, the vehicle's dashboard or multimedia system will display an oil change prompt. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves multiple functions such as lubrication, wear reduction, cooling assistance, sealing, rust and corrosion prevention, and shock absorption, earning it the nickname 'blood' of the car. Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives.
