The normal tire pressure range for the BYD Song Pro is 2.4-2.5 bar. Due to seasonal factors, the tire pressure can be appropriately increased by 0.2 bar in winter and reduced by 0.1 bar in summer. This data is based on the international GBT2978-2008 standard. The specific method to display the tire pressure values on the BYD Song Pro is as follows: there is a mode button on the right side of the steering wheel. Click the down button to scroll through the content, and the third scroll will display the specific tire pressure values. Generally speaking, a tire pressure exceeding 2.8 bar is considered too high, while a tire pressure below 2.0 bar is considered too low. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; overextends the tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving. Hazards of underinflated tires: Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; makes the steering wheel heavy and prone to deviation, compromising driving safety; increases movement in various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; reduces the functionality of the cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage and excessive friction with the rim, causing damage to the bead area and abnormal wear; multiplies the friction between the tire and the ground, rapidly increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength. High-speed driving may result in a tire blowout. If the tire pressure monitoring indicator light comes on (a yellow symbol with an irregular circle, no seal on top, four small spikes below, and an exclamation mark inside), there are generally three possible reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually triggers an alarm if below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the system still records the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring indicator to light up. Simply perform a tire pressure reset. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation valve, monitors tire pressure. If the sensor is damaged during driving, it will trigger the tire pressure warning light. For sensor damage, the only solution is to replace it with a new one.

I've been driving my BYD Song Pro for over three years now, usually maintaining tire pressure between 2.3 to 2.4 bar, which is the manufacturer's recommended normal range, approximately 34 to 35 PSI. I remember one winter when I didn't pay attention to the tire pressure, it dropped to 2.1 bar, and the car vibrated noticeably more, making the ride uncomfortable, and fuel consumption increased significantly. Since then, I've made it a habit to check the tire pressure gauge every month, keeping it at the standard value makes the ride much smoother. Tire pressure is crucial for both comfort and safety; too high can make the ride bumpy and may increase the risk of a blowout, while too low can wear out tires faster and affect braking distance. I adjust it slightly with each season change, reducing it by about 0.1 bar in hot summer weather and increasing it a bit in cold weather. I recommend Song Pro owners to develop the habit of checking, investing in a good tire pressure gauge to do it themselves—it's simple, saves trouble, and can also save fuel and money.

I pay special attention to fuel efficiency in my daily driving. For the BYD Song Pro, maintaining tire pressure between 34 to 35 PSI is optimal for fuel savings—this is no trivial matter. Low tire pressure increases rolling resistance and burns significantly more fuel. Through several personal tests, I've found that keeping standard tire pressure saves about half a liter per 100 kilometers, which adds up to substantial savings over time. However, don’t focus solely on fuel economy; safety is equally important. Both overinflation and underinflation affect handling, especially reducing traction in rain or snow. I recommend a quick check every two weeks—just use a tire pressure gauge in your garage for a simple measurement. Temperature fluctuations impact tire pressure: avoid letting values spike too high in summer, and top up air in winter to maintain the standard. Regular checks also extend tire lifespan and prevent unexpected costs. If unsure, always refer to the manual or the values on the door label.

The standard tire pressure for the BYD Song Pro should be maintained between 34 and 35 PSI. I always emphasize the importance of driving safety. Too low tire pressure increases the risk of a blowout, while too high pressure makes the vehicle unstable and prone to skidding. Every time I go on a long-distance trip, I make sure to check the tire pressure, keeping it around 2.4 bar for optimal performance. Remember to reduce the pressure slightly in hot weather to avoid overheating and expansion, and be extra cautious during rain or snow. Simply use a tire pressure gauge for regular checks—don’t overlook this. Even tire wear is also crucial for longevity.

Is ETC limited to one card per vehicle?

ETC is one card per vehicle, and one card can be bound to multiple vehicles. According to the "Rules for the Use of Non-Stop Rapid Passage Systems," when applying for an ETC card, you need to fill out the "ETC Service Deduction Authorization Form." When specifying the vehicles for payment binding, multiple vehicles can be listed. In other words, there is no limit to the number of vehicles that can be bound to a single ETC card for payment purposes. ETC is an electronic toll collection system, also known as an automatic road toll system. It is a road toll method specifically designed for toll roads, commonly found on highways, bridges or tunnels with toll policies, and certain sections of urban centers to alleviate traffic congestion. ETC Deduction Principles: Highways have one or more ETC lanes. Through dedicated short-range microwave communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station, the system uses computer networking technology to perform backend settlement with banks. This allows vehicles to pay tolls without stopping at toll stations, all based on the principle of "pass first, deduct later." Benefits of Installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in queues; Green and eco-friendly: Low-carbon, as vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions and minimizing pollution; Reduced wear and tear: Saves costs by decreasing the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, thereby reducing wear and fuel consumption; Improved efficiency: Theoretically, ETC lanes can increase vehicle passage efficiency by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC more updated, faster, and higher-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council explicitly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, intercity transportation smart cards will be basically realized in key city clusters, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will significantly increase." It also set a target in the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development indicators: "By 2020, the ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles will reach 50%." More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and the ETC adoption rate for passenger vehicles, future efforts will include promoting ETC use for trucks and exploring deeper integration of the ETC system with smart transportation directions such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination. This will provide comprehensive travel services for vehicle owners, meaning more application scenarios will support ETC usage.

Which has priority, right turn or going straight?

Going straight has priority. According to Article 51 of the Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, at intersections with designated lanes, vehicles must enter the appropriate lane based on their intended direction of travel. When making a right turn, if the vehicle ahead in the same lane is waiting for the traffic signal, the following vehicle must stop and wait in turn. Relevant information about traffic lights is as follows: Introduction: Traffic lights are signals that direct traffic flow, typically consisting of red, green, and yellow lights. A red light indicates prohibition of passage, a green light indicates permission to proceed, and a yellow light serves as a warning. Control methods: The most basic control method is fixed-time control at a single intersection. Line control and area control can also use fixed-time control methods, also known as static line control systems and static area control systems.

What are the requirements for opening a charging station?

Opening a charging station requires two basic conditions: a fixed parking space and a power supply. The following is an introduction to charging stations: Procedures for opening a charging station: First, submit a letter of intent to the local government's development and reform commission planning department and wait for approval. Then, apply for the geographical location from the Land and Resources Bureau, and simultaneously submit a feasibility report to the Urban Planning Bureau of the Construction Committee, also waiting for approval. Once these departments agree to the plan and provide approval, the next steps involve the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, Taxation Bureau, Quality Inspection Bureau, Environmental Protection Bureau, Fire Department, and, most crucially, the Power Bureau. Once all these approvals are obtained, after the construction of the electric vehicle charging station is completed, an acceptance application can be submitted to the power supply company. Upon passing the acceptance inspection, the power supply company will complete the installation of meters and power connection, after which the station can naturally begin operations. Functions of a charging station: The charging pile (socket) can achieve timed charging, electricity metering, and amount calculation, serving as a terminal for citizens to purchase electricity. At the same time, to improve the efficiency and practicality of public charging piles (sockets), functions such as multi-charging from a single pile (socket) and charging for electric bicycles will be gradually added in the future.

What is Fatigue Driving Warning?

Fatigue driving warning is a driver fatigue monitoring and early warning product based on the physiological response characteristics of the driver. Below is a detailed introduction to the relevant content: Warning System: The commonly equipped fatigue monitoring system is called the "Fatigue Driving Warning System". It is based on the driver's physiological image response and consists of two main modules, the ECU and a camera. The system uses the driver's facial features, eye signals, head movements, etc., to infer the driver's fatigue state and provides alarm warnings and takes corresponding measures. It offers active and intelligent safety protection for drivers and passengers. Safety Warning System: Additionally, some fatigue monitoring systems are referred to as "Driver Safety Warning Systems". This system is activated when the vehicle enters environments that are prone to making the driver relaxed, such as straight and flat roads, or situations that may cause the driver to become distracted or doze off. It also activates when the vehicle speed exceeds 65 km/h. The Driver Safety Warning System consists of a camera, several sensors, and a control unit. The camera is installed between the windshield and the rearview mirror inside the car and continuously measures the distance between the car and the lane markings. It monitors the vehicle's driving route through signals from the digital camera and data from the steering wheel movements.
