ECO stands for Economic Mode. When the ECO switch is pressed, the air conditioning operates in economic mode, where the set temperature of the car's air conditioning cooling system is relatively higher. This means the compressor operates for shorter durations, reducing the engine load and saving fuel consumption. Here are some details about the ECO mode: 1. Energy-saving principle: The vehicle's computer assesses factors affecting fuel consumption, such as transmission gear position, engine speed, and transmission oil temperature, to rationally control these gears and reduce unnecessary fuel usage. 2. ECO mode may become ineffective under the following conditions: when the vehicle speed exceeds 120km/h; during idle or in N/P gear; or when the car requires significant power to operate.

How to Deal with Slightly Deformed Wheel Hubs?

The method to handle slightly deformed wheel hubs is to perform dynamic balancing for the vehicle. The steps are as follows: 1. Remove and clean the tire, then take off the old balancing weights; 2. Place the tire on the dynamic balancing machine and secure it with clamps; 3. Measure the required values for the dynamic balancing machine; 4. After the tire stops, the dynamic balancing machine will display the deviation value of the tire; 5. Rotate the tire by hand. When the dynamic balancing machine shows full bars on both the inner and outer sides, add balancing weights according to the corresponding values. Dynamic balancing refers to the operation of determining the position and size of the unbalanced amount generated when the rotor rotates and eliminating it. The unbalanced amount can cause lateral vibration of the rotor, subjecting it to unnecessary dynamic loads and adversely affecting its normal operation.
