The correct method for parking on the highway is: 1. If a malfunction occurs, promptly pull over to the right and stop in a safe location. After stopping, turn on the hazard warning lights and place a warning triangle in the direction of oncoming traffic. For more serious malfunctions, it is essential to call for emergency repairs immediately; 2. In cases of heavy fog, rain, or snow, parking is not allowed unless absolutely necessary. If visibility is low or driving becomes difficult under such conditions, exit at the nearest station instead of forcing your way through; 3. If there is a traffic jam on the main highway, follow the car in front and park in the driving lane in sequence. After stopping, always turn on the hazard warning lights. If cars behind you also stop in sequence, there is no need to place a warning triangle. However, if no cars stop behind you immediately, be sure to place a warning triangle in the direction of oncoming traffic.

What does the TC slash on the car dashboard mean?

The TC slash displayed on the car dashboard indicates that the traction control system is active. The traction control system, also known as the track control system, relies on electronic sensors to detect when the driven wheels' speed is lower than that of the driving wheels. It then sends signals to adjust ignition timing, reduce throttle opening, decrease fuel supply, downshift, or brake the wheels to prevent wheel slippage. The reasons for the TC light illuminating on the car dashboard include: 1. Solenoid valve malfunction; 2. Dirty oil clogging the solenoid valve filter; 3. Wear of the actuator gear and impeller causing oil pressure leakage, triggering an alarm; 4. Dirty throttle body with an opening reaching 20%, leading the engine computer to mistakenly diagnose a TC fault.

Must the ETC owner be the vehicle owner?

It is possible to apply for ETC even if you are not the vehicle owner. According to the "Implementation Plan for Accelerating the Application of Electronic Non-stop Toll Collection on Expressways" issued by the Ministry of Transport, the following documents are required: the original valid ID card of the vehicle owner, the original and a copy of the vehicle registration certificate (with the page showing the latest annual inspection stamp). If applying on behalf of someone else, the original valid ID card of the agent is also required. If applying for ETC through major bank branches, a debit card or credit card from the corresponding bank must be prepared. Some banks only support ETC binding with credit cards, while others may require freezing a portion of the amount as a security deposit when binding ETC with a debit card. Documents required for company vehicles: An introduction letter from the vehicle owner (with official seal); a copy of the organization code certificate or business license (with official seal); the original ID card of the agent; the original vehicle registration certificate; the vehicle for which ETC is to be applied. ETC billing principle: There will be one or more ETC lanes on expressways. Through dedicated short-range microwave communication between the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station, and using computer networking technology for backend settlement with the bank, the purpose of paying tolls without stopping at the toll station is achieved. All of this is based on the principle of "pass first, deduct later". Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and environmentally friendly: reduces noise and exhaust emissions by eliminating the need for vehicles to stop at toll stations; Reduces wear and tear: saves costs by reducing the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, thereby lowering wear and fuel consumption; Improves efficiency: the theoretical efficiency of ETC lanes can be increased by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC updates faster and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the interoperability of transportation cards in key urban clusters will be basically achieved, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will be significantly increased." It also explicitly set the goal of "achieving a 50% ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles by 2020" in the main indicators of the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development. More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and the usage rate of ETC passenger vehicles, efforts will also be made to promote the use of ETC by trucks in the future. There will be exploration of deep integration between the ETC system and smart transportation development directions such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination, providing comprehensive travel services for vehicle owners. This means more application scenarios will support ETC applications. ETC usage precautions: The ETC transaction sensing area is 8 meters. When encountering a vehicle in front that has stopped, to prevent the ETC device of the vehicle in front from malfunctioning or not having an ETC device at all, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle in front to avoid automatic sensing and paying for the vehicle in front. The recognition speed for ETC lane passage is 20 km/h. If the speed is too fast, the vehicle device information cannot be read, which will also lead to billing failure. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or detachment or loosening of the ETC electronic tag, will cause the electronic tag to fail. It can be sent to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the expressway service office for testing. If the loosening or detachment is not caused by human factors, it only needs to be reactivated. When using a debit card bound to ETC, insufficient balance will also cause billing failure. Follow the guidance of on-site staff to use the manual MTC lane and pass by cash or card. Excessive thickness of the car windshield may cause poor sensing. This is especially important for vehicles that have had their windshields replaced after accidents or for those who have modified their front windshields.

What is the AFL light?

AFL light refers to the Automatic Headlight System. The following are the functions of the AFL light: Expanding the illumination range: This system is an active steering headlight with several variation modes. When driving at low speeds in residential areas or congested road sections, this system can increase the illumination range of the lights, allowing the driver to clearly see the conditions on both sides of the vehicle and improving safety. Accurately adjusting the illumination height: When driving on urban main roads or well-conditioned national highways, this system can increase the illumination distance of the right headlight and control the illumination height of the left headlight to ensure it does not affect the vision of oncoming drivers.

How long does it take for chassis armor to be road-ready?

After applying chassis armor to a car, it generally takes one day before the vehicle can be driven. Below is relevant knowledge about automotive chassis armor: Drying time for chassis armor: In terms of process, there is natural air drying after spraying, as well as accelerated drying with the aid of fans to increase air circulation. Generally, fan-assisted drying saves more time compared to natural drying, but it may have adverse effects on the uniformity of the paint film. Chassis armor protective paint: The quality and performance of protective paints vary significantly. Some paints can dry rapidly in about 2 hours, while others may require nearly a week. During continuous rainy weather, the drying process will take even longer. Precautions for chassis armor: Before spraying chassis armor, the car must be lifted with a jack and the chassis cleaned to remove dirt and rust layers, then dried. During spraying, special attention must be paid to avoid spraying on the exhaust system, suspension, and brakes of the car chassis.
