Emergency braking refers to slamming on the brakes. During vehicle operation, when encountering emergency situations, the driver must correctly and promptly use the brake system to bring the vehicle to a stop within the shortest possible distance. Simply put, it's hard braking, but emergency braking isn't just about stomping the brake pedal to the floor. The correct emergency braking method is also crucial, and emergency braking cannot be used under all circumstances. Introduction to the principle of automatic emergency braking system: 1. In terms of working principle, it is a closed-loop cycle process of perception, calculation, and execution. From an automotive engineering perspective, it is a comprehensive electronic control system composed of various monitoring and control sensors inside the vehicle, coordinated with the system controller, supporting operating software, and algorithms. It typically uses millimeter-wave radar or optical sensors to monitor the distance to the vehicle ahead or obstacles in real-time, combined with information from multiple sensors of the vehicle's own powertrain, braking system, stability system, etc. 2. It utilizes safety distance model parameters to calculate the safe distance under current conditions in real-time and compares it with the distance measured by the monitoring millimeter-wave radar or optical sensors to determine the safety status. When the monitored actual distance is less than the safe distance, even if the driver does not take manual braking measures, the system will actively send hydraulic pressure commands to the vehicle's electronic stability system under the premise of ensuring no tire slip occurs. Through coordinated work among various vehicle systems, the vehicle will instantly cut off or reduce power while simultaneously activating the braking system to avoid collision accidents.

What is the ignition point of engine oil?

The ignition point of engine oil, also known as the flash point, is generally around 200°C. Under vacuum conditions, the boiling point of gasoline is approximately 850°C. The boiling point and ignition point of engine oil vary depending on the specific oil model, which is usually labeled on the oil bottle. Vehicle owners should pay attention to this when using engine oil. Precautions for using engine oil: 1. Choose high-quality oil: Selecting premium engine oil can enhance vehicle performance and provide better lubrication. Full synthetic oils not only protect the engine and reduce oil change frequency but also save costs. Additionally, choose different oil viscosity grades according to the season: opt for higher viscosity oils in summer and oils with better fluidity in winter. 2. Monitor replacement intervals: The oil change cycle isn't fixed and depends on the owner's driving environment and habits. Typically, full synthetic oil should be changed every 10,000 kilometers, but harsh driving conditions may shorten this interval. Owners should adjust oil change timing accordingly. 3. Oil level should be slightly below the dipstick mark: When adding oil, control the quantity carefully. Excessive oil increases crankshaft resistance, reduces engine output power, and may lead to oil burning. It's best to keep the oil level slightly below the dipstick mark.

From which day does the first maintenance period start?

The first maintenance date of a car is calculated from the day of vehicle pickup. The running period after pickup is generally around 3 months or 3,000 kilometers. Different car brands have varying requirements, which can be referenced in the manual. More information about the first car maintenance is as follows: 1. After a new car is delivered, the 4S store usually requires the owner to perform the first maintenance within 3,000 kilometers. In fact, the car manufacturer requires the owner to complete the first maintenance within 5,000 kilometers. Therefore, it should not exceed 5,000 kilometers before the first maintenance. 2. If the car is driven infrequently and it takes a long time to reach 3,000 kilometers, then the first maintenance should be done within three months. When purchasing the car, sales personnel often mention how many free maintenance services are included. In fact, the first maintenance is already free and doesn't count as a 'gift.' If three maintenance services are offered, then including the first one, there would be four free maintenance services in total. 3. For the first maintenance, changing the engine oil and oil filter is sufficient. If the 4S store suggests other paid maintenance items, they can be declined. Of course, free services like checking tire pressure and ensuring lights are functioning properly must be performed.

Do You Need to Press the Clutch When Slowing Down a Manual Transmission Car?

When slowing down a manual transmission car, you should press the clutch. The most correct method is to first press the brake to reduce speed, then press the clutch and quickly shift to a lower gear. Remember, the first step is to press the brake, as this is the fastest way to reduce speed. However, avoid pressing the brake too hard at once to prevent the engine from stalling. Functions of the Clutch: Gradually increase the driving force of the car for a smooth start; temporarily separate the engine and transmission for gear shifting; prevent overload of the transmission system; reduce torsional vibration shocks from the engine, extending the lifespan of transmission gears. Working Principle of the Clutch: When the inner ring is fixed, the outer ring can rotate freely in the clockwise direction without locking the wedge block; when the outer ring rotates counterclockwise, the wedge block locks, preventing the outer ring from rotating. Precautions When Pressing the Clutch While Slowing Down: If you need to slow down while driving, press the brake first. Avoid pressing the clutch with your left foot while braking with your right foot, as sudden loss of traction on slippery roads can easily cause skidding. Developing good driving habits is crucial for your safety. If the car is traveling at high speed and the driver presses both the brake and the clutch simultaneously, the car may suddenly accelerate due to the disconnection of the engine's resistance. This means the driver needs to press the brake harder to control the speed.

Can a newly purchased car with temporary license plates drive on highways?

Since temporary license plates are the only legal permit for driving before the official plates are issued, as long as the car is equipped with temporary plates, it can drive normally on both highways and local roads. However, it's important to note that temporary plates usually come with regional restrictions, and the car cannot be driven beyond the designated area; otherwise, heavy penalties may apply if caught. Below are the relevant details: 1. Passing through toll stations with temporary plates: When entering a highway toll station, simply use the manual lane to take a card (or an automatic card dispenser). Upon exiting the highway, return the card to the staff and pay the fee. The toll card contains an electronic chip that calculates the time, distance, and toll rate for the highway journey. 2. Can temporary plates be used in other regions? Only the specific "cross-administrative district temporary license plates" are allowed for inter-province travel. Temporary plates have time and area limitations. For regular car owners, temporary plates can be divided into the following two categories: (1) Administrative district temporary plates (sky blue background with black characters and black borders), also known as city temporary plates. Vehicles with these plates are only permitted to drive within the designated administrative district and are not allowed to leave the province. The validity period is 15 days. (2) Cross-administrative district temporary plates (brown-yellow background with black characters and black borders), also known as national temporary plates. Only vehicles with these plates are allowed to travel across provinces. The validity period is 30 days.

Why Does the Antifreeze in a Car Decrease?

The decrease in antifreeze in a car is due to three main reasons: natural consumption, coolant leakage, and antifreeze entering the combustion chamber and participating in combustion. How to Choose Antifreeze: The basic indicators of antifreeze are its freezing point and boiling point. On the market, antifreeze comes in several specifications with freezing points such as -15°C, -25°C, -30°C, and -40°C. Generally, it is advisable to choose an antifreeze with a freezing point at least 10°C lower than the lowest temperature in your region. Can Different Antifreeze Brands Be Mixed? It is necessary to use the same brand of antifreeze. Different brands of antifreeze may have varying production formulas. If mixed, the various additives may undergo chemical reactions, rendering them ineffective. Antifreeze Replacement Cycle: For vehicles that run for long periods, such as taxis, high-quality antifreeze should generally be replaced once a year. For vehicles with shorter running times, replacement can be done every two years or every 30,000 kilometers. To prevent excessive foam formation, which can reduce the heat exchange efficiency between the antifreeze and engine components, ensure the product is within its validity period when adding it. Long-lasting antifreeze can have a validity period of up to three years. If suspended matter, sediment, or signs of deterioration or discoloration are found in the antifreeze, it should be replaced promptly, and the system should be cleaned.
