SOS-NOT-READY indicates that the SOS roadside assistance system is not ready. This prompt will be displayed if you don't start the vehicle, and it will disappear once you start the engine. If the message persists after starting the vehicle, it may be due to poor signal in the current communication environment. As the vehicle moves and captures a signal, the message will automatically clear. If the issue remains unresolved for an extended period, there might be a malfunction in the assistance system. It is recommended to promptly drive to an authorized 4S dealership for inspection and repair.

Do car wraps need to be registered with the vehicle management office?

Transparent car wraps do not require registration. However, color-changing wraps need to be registered with the vehicle management office. According to current motor vehicle registration regulations, if the area of color change does not exceed 30% of the vehicle's surface, no registration is required. If the color change exceeds 30%, it must be registered, and the new color must be one that was originally registered when the vehicle left the factory. Steps for registering a car wrap: 1. Fill out the "Motor Vehicle Modification Registration Application Form" and submit the "Identity Proof of the Vehicle Owner and Driver," "Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate," "Motor Vehicle Driving License," and standard photos of the vehicle for which the modification is being applied. 2. Modifications such as body color, engine, fuel type, and frame number are allowed, but three colors are reserved for special vehicles and cannot be used: red for firefighting, yellow for engineering rescue, and white over blue for national administrative law enforcement. Replacing the front bumper, which alters the vehicle's shape, can be done after approval, but modifications like raising the chassis to enhance off-road performance are not permitted. If any illegal modifications are discovered during the annual inspection, they must be reverted to the original state. 3. Modifications such as widening tires, altering the intake system, or modifying the exhaust system are not allowed. According to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Measures" issued by the Ministry of Public Security, changing tire specifications, intake systems, or exhaust systems are not permitted modifications. Such modifications may alter engine power and affect driving safety. Owners of illegally modified vehicles will be fined 500–1,000 yuan and ordered to restore the vehicle to its original condition.
