What does the Chinese translation of 'econ' mean?

ECON in cars is the abbreviation for low-carbon and eco-friendly driving mode. This button can turn the energy-saving mode on or off. Nowadays, cars generally offer three driving modes to choose from: energy-saving mode, comfort mode, and sport mode. Below is information about these three modes: Energy-saving mode: When the car is in this mode, fuel consumption is relatively low. The throttle pedal sensitivity decreases, and the transmission shifts up more aggressively. Comfort mode: This mode can be considered a normal operating mode for the car. In this mode, the throttle pedal response is more sensitive than in energy-saving mode. Sport mode: Sport mode can be used during aggressive driving. When sport mode is activated, the throttle pedal response becomes very sensitive, and the transmission delays shifting. The transmission will only upshift when the engine speed reaches the redline. After switching to sport mode, the engine speed will remain around 3,000 RPM, providing better power response during acceleration. When the car enters ECON mode, it can achieve reduced fuel consumption and energy savings, but the car's power will weaken. ECON can be understood as the abbreviation for 'economy.' In most cases, it is recommended to keep ECON mode on. It should only be turned off when high torque output is needed (e.g., climbing a hill) or when the car is traveling at very high speeds. After pressing the ECON button, the car enters the low-carbon and eco-friendly driving mode. The ECU, engine, and transmission then intelligently execute the driver's intentions in the most fuel-efficient manner, achieving optimal fuel economy through rapid upshifts and smooth acceleration. When the driver presses the throttle pedal deeply, the ECON system effectively controls the opening and closing of the intake valves to ensure smooth engine operation and energy savings. Although ECON mode is simple and effective to operate, it may not work under certain conditions: When the vehicle speed exceeds 120 km/h, priority is given to speed, and the energy-saving mode automatically deactivates. This means that if the car exceeds the economical speed range (typically between 60-90 km/h), ECON mode will not save fuel. The key to ECON mode is the use of computer-controlled independent operation while the car is in motion to make it effective. Therefore, ECON does not work during idle parking or when in N, P, or manual mode.

How to Replace the Coolant in a Magotan?

The recommended interval for replacing the coolant in a Magotan is every two years. Method for replacing the coolant: Before performing a complete coolant replacement, conduct a thorough inspection to check for any signs of leakage or cracks in the pipes, with particular attention to the five-way hose. This hose is named for its five connections to various parts of the vehicle, as the coolant flows through it to be distributed to different sections of the car. If there is any sign of coolant leakage in this area, replace the hose or re-secure the connections as necessary. Drain the old coolant, then flush the liquid channels with clean water. Add clean water to the coolant reservoir, then continue adding water until it flows continuously through the engine cooling system. Start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. Initially, the water draining from the reservoir may have a faint pink tint. Continue adding clean water until the outflow is clear. Remember to disconnect the heater hose to drain all water from the heater core. After draining for about an hour, add the new coolant through the radiator hose, which allows the coolant to flow quickly into the radiator. Then, add another container of coolant to the reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. During this time, the coolant level will drop slightly as air is purged from the system. Top up the coolant to the maximum mark "MAXT" on the reservoir.
