When using keyless ignition, you need to press the foot brake and press the start-stop button to ignite the car. Introduction to the keyless ignition system: The keyless ignition system allows you to start the vehicle without inserting or turning a key. As long as the smart key is inside the car, pressing the START button can directly ignite or turn off the engine. The keyless ignition system is a more advanced configuration than the keyless entry system. Vehicles equipped with the keyless ignition system also have the keyless entry system, but vehicles with the keyless entry system may not necessarily have the keyless ignition system. Keyless ignition steps: First, after the driver sits in the driver's seat, without pressing the brake, press the start button once—the ACC light will turn on. Next, the driver presses the brake and presses the one-touch start button to ignite the engine. Then, release the foot brake; you can choose to warm up the car in place. Press the foot brake again, shift into D gear, release the handbrake, and finally, slowly release the foot brake while gently pressing the accelerator to complete the start.

After driving cars with one-button start for so many years, I've summarized the correct sequence: Before starting the engine, you must firmly press the brake pedal, then press the start button to get the engine running; When stopping, first make sure the vehicle is completely stationary, shift into P gear (automatic transmission) or N gear (manual transmission), then press the button to turn off the engine. The system is designed with a brake sensor to prevent accidental starts and a gear position sensor to confirm a safe shutdown position, avoiding vehicle slippage or unintended movement. If you press the button without stepping on the brake, it may only activate the power supply and enter accessory mode, without starting the engine, which drains the battery and is impractical. Forgetting to shift into P gear when stopping may trigger an alarm. I always remind my novice friends to practice more, as this sequence can protect the starter motor and transmission, extending the lifespan of the components.

What are the features of the Haval H6?

Here is a detailed explanation of the Haval H6 features: Electronic Parking Brake: Fasten the seatbelt, start in D gear without releasing the handbrake, and no need to engage the handbrake when turning off the engine. However, it is not recommended to do this on slopes. When parking, first shift to neutral, turn off the engine, shift to neutral again, and then push to P gear. Steering Wheel Gear Shift: You can directly switch gears using the paddle shifters. Upshift can be done around 1800 RPM. Cruise Control: Fasten the seatbelt when using it. Press the cruise control button, and when the speed reaches about 45 km/h, press the minus button to set the speed. The cruise control will automatically cancel if the speed drops below 40 km/h. You can also cancel it by braking or pressing the cruise control button.

How to Determine the Distance of the Rear Vehicle for Overtaking Using Side Mirrors?

When observing the side mirrors, they should be divided into inner and outer sections. If the rear vehicle is closer to you, the visible area of the vehicle will be smaller, and it will appear closer to the outer edge of the mirror, approximately 25 meters away. Conversely, if the rear vehicle is farther away, the visible area will be more complete, and it will appear closer to the inner edge of the mirror. The closer the distance, the smaller the visible area in the mirror: If the rear vehicle is closer to you, the visible area will be smaller, and it will appear closer to the outer edge of the mirror. If the rear vehicle is farther away, the visible area will be more complete, and it will appear closer to the inner edge. Generally, if the rear vehicle is at the intersection of the inner and outer sections of the mirror, it is approximately 25 meters away. Estimating distance using the interior rearview mirror: Additionally, you can estimate the distance between your vehicle and the rear vehicle using the interior rearview mirror. If you can only see the rear vehicle's hood and not its windshield, the distance is about 3 meters. If you can see the rear vehicle's windshield, the distance is approximately 8 meters. If you can fully see the rear vehicle's wheels, the distance is more than 20 meters.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Chery Tiggo 8?

The fuel tank capacity of the Chery Tiggo 8 is 51 liters. The vehicle is equipped with three types of engines: a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine, a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, and a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine. The transmission options include a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, a 6-speed manual transmission, and a 6-speed dry dual-clutch transmission. All models of the vehicle feature front-engine, front-wheel-drive configuration. Among vehicles in the same class, the Tiggo 8 PLUS 2022 model has a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters, the Trumpchi GS4 2022 model has a 55-liter tank, and the Roewe RX5 2022 model also has a 55-liter tank. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, and there is additional space from the safe fill level to the tank opening. This space is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to temperature increases, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with E and F. When the needle is close to E, it indicates low fuel, and when it is near F, it means the fuel level is sufficient.
