General pressure for adding refrigerant to a car's air conditioning system: High pressure 1.3-1.7MPA; Low pressure 0.1-0.25MPA. The introduction to air conditioning refrigerant pressure is as follows: 1. If the pressure is higher or lower than the above range, it indicates abnormal expansion valve adjustment. Compressor issues are not included in this category. 2. When measuring the pressure of the air conditioning system, the engine should be idling, and the measurement should be taken at an ambient temperature of 35℃. 3. When the engine throttle is increased, the measured low pressure should decrease with the engine speed. The faster the speed, the greater the pressure drop, indicating good compressor performance. Conversely, it indicates a compressor malfunction.

What to Do When the ETC Card is Pulled Out?

After the ETC card is pulled out, it should be reinserted gently into the ETC sensor's card slot with the side containing the chip facing forward. Once the sensor detects the ETC express card, the sensor's display will light up and show the message "Start Billing," indicating that the connection between the sensor and the express card is intact. The installation position for ETC is as follows: The height should be no lower than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters. The installation angle N should be between 30 and 90 degrees (the angle between the surface of the electronic tag and the horizontal plane). For small vehicles such as cars and minivans, the OBU device should be installed in the upper-middle part of the front windshield. For large vehicles like trucks and buses, the installation position should be in the middle-lower part. If the vehicle has anti-explosion film or if it is applied later, since the film contains metal ions that may interfere with the signal transmission of the microwave communication link, the ETC should be installed in the "microwave window" area or a rectangular area of 8cm x 10cm should be cut out in the anti-explosion film.

The Fastest Tips for Beginners to Learn Reversing a Car

Tips for beginners to reverse a car are introduced as follows: 1. Ensure safety: For beginners, the first step is to confirm whether the rear of the car is safe. If you are not sure about the safety while in the car, you can get off and check. Prepare to reverse only after confirming safety. If there is someone nearby, it's best to ask for help. 2. Correct posture: A good driving posture is crucial for safe driving, and the posture must be correct when reversing. When looking at the rear window, hold the upper part of the steering wheel with your left hand and turn your body to get a wide rearview angle. If you are reversing while looking sideways, hold the steering wheel with your right hand and slightly extend your head. 3. Slow speed: The speed when reversing must be well controlled, and the accelerator pedal must not be pressed. For beginners, the left foot can control the clutch to maintain a semi-clutch state, while the right foot is placed on the brake pedal, ready to brake at any time. 4. Determine distance: An important point for reversing is to confirm the distance, which should be judged through the left and right rearview mirrors and the rearview mirror respectively. If necessary, turn your head to observe the distance of obstacles.

How to Reapply for a Lost ETC Card?

ETC card reapplication method: The vehicle owner should bring their ID card, the original and a copy of the vehicle registration certificate to the bank counter to handle the card replacement or reissuance. The installation process for the ETC device is as follows: Upon receiving the device, first check if the ETC card and the electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU; a red light will briefly illuminate, and the OLED screen will display "Tag Invalid" or "Please Insert Card," indicating the device is functioning normally. Clean the front windshield, ensuring the surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then, peel off the adhesive backing of the OBU and attach it to the installation position. Press firmly for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front facing the driver and the back facing the windshield, ensuring the chip is inserted into the OBU device. ETC device activation method: Insert and remove the ETC card twice in succession until the electronic tag screen displays "Bluetooth On." If "Tag Invalid" appears when inserting and removing the card twice without attaching the electronic tag, it is a normal phenomenon and does not affect activation. Alternatively, press the button on the top of the electronic tag to enable Bluetooth directly. Turn on the phone's Bluetooth and open the corresponding mobile app (usually a download QR code is provided on the electronic tag), then navigate to the device activation interface. Click on "Device Connection" and wait patiently for the "Connection Successful" prompt. Once connected, upload a photo of the vehicle's front to complete the activation.

Does purchasing a used car count towards GDP?

Purchasing a used car does not count towards the GDP of the current year. Here is more relevant information: 1. GDP: GDP refers to the total market value of all final goods and services produced within a country during a certain period. It is important to note that GDP measures production within a certain period, not the value of newly sold goods. Used cars are generally not considered newly produced, meaning the value of a second-hand car was already included in GDP when the new car was originally sold. Therefore, purchasing a used car does not count towards the GDP of the current year. 2. Actual accounting: In actual accounting, the three manifestations of GDP are reflected through three calculation methods, namely the production approach, the income approach, and the expenditure approach. These three methods reflect GDP and its composition from different perspectives. The results calculated using the production approach, income approach, and expenditure approach are called production-based GDP, income-based GDP or distribution-based GDP, and expenditure-based GDP, respectively.

Where are the brake and accelerator pedals located in a manual transmission car?

In a manual transmission car, the pedals are arranged from left to right as follows: clutch, brake, and accelerator. Here are the detailed explanations: 1. Clutch function: The clutch pedal can be pressed or released as needed to temporarily disconnect or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the engine's power to the gearbox. 2. Brake function: Used to decelerate, either to reduce speed or bring the vehicle to a complete stop. 3. Accelerator function: Controls the throttle opening of the engine via a controller, regulating the air intake while the computer controls the fuel supply, thus managing the engine's speed.
