Car 'on' refers to turning on. By rotating the key to the 'on' position, the car's electrical system is powered up. If you continue to turn it to the 'start' position, the engine can be started. The car's one-button start is a part of the smart car system, which is a button device designed to simplify the ignition process and can also be used to turn off the engine. The one-button start can be installed by modifying the original car key slot or as an independent panel. The functions of the one-button start intelligent system include automatic unlocking, automatic locking, automatic window closing, automatic anti-theft, one-button start, one-button shutdown, automatic locking before driving, automatic unlocking when parking and turning off the engine, and opening the trunk.

What brand is the engine of the Geely Boyue?

The engine of the Geely Boyue is produced by Geely Auto itself, utilizing technology from Volvo, making it a domestically manufactured engine. The engine model of the Geely Boyue is JLE-4G18TDC, a 1.8T version with a maximum power of 135kw/5500rpm and a maximum torque of 285Nm/1500-4000rpm. The 2.0L version has a maximum power of 104kw/6000rpm and a maximum torque of 178Nm/4000-4500rpm. For daily maintenance of the Geely Boyue's engine, the following methods can be applied: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, ensuring the standard meets or exceeds the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the oil and filter. The quality of any lubricating oil will degrade over use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, leading to various engine issues. To prevent malfunctions, change the oil periodically based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. As oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through, it may rupture the filter or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Periodically use a radiator cleaner to flush the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

Can Blue and Green Antifreeze Be Mixed?

Blue and green car antifreeze should not be mixed. Different manufacturers use different additives, which may lead to incompatibility and potential chemical reactions. Therefore, it is best to avoid mixing them. The antifreeze properties come from components like glycerin or isopropanol in the antifreeze. Precautions for using car antifreeze: Use the same brand of antifreeze. Different brands may have varying production formulas, and mixing them could cause chemical reactions between additives, rendering them ineffective. Replace antifreeze regularly—every two years or every 40,000 kilometers. Taxis should replace it more frequently. When replacing, drain the old fluid completely, clean the cooling system thoroughly, and then add new fluid. Avoid diluting with water. Traditional inorganic antifreeze should not be diluted with water, as it may cause precipitation and severely impair its functionality. Organic antifreeze can be diluted with water, but excessive dilution should be avoided. Some antifreeze may develop small flocculent precipitates after storage for a year. This is usually caused by additive separation and does not mean the antifreeze should be discarded. However, if large particle precipitates appear, the antifreeze has deteriorated and should no longer be used. Maintenance precautions for antifreeze: Do not directly pour concentrated antifreeze. Some drivers and mechanics may mistakenly believe that purer antifreeze is better or that higher ethylene glycol concentration is preferable. Directly adding concentrated antifreeze not only fails to meet the required freezing point but can also lead to unexpected issues, such as antifreeze deterioration, increased low-temperature viscosity, and higher engine temperatures. Regularly check antifreeze during use. Antifreeze has a shelf life of two years, so continuity is important. To minimize waste, avoid unnecessary replacement after adding antifreeze.
