Generally, cars should undergo maintenance every 5,000 kilometers. Below are relevant details: 1. Maintenance content: The basic service includes engine oil and filter replacement. The oil change interval varies depending on the oil type selected by the owner. Typically, conventional mineral oil requires replacement every six months or 5,000 km, semi-synthetic oil every eight months or 7,500 km, while full synthetic oil can last one year or 10,000 km. 2. Precautions: Vehicle maintenance isn't limited to oil changes. It also involves replacing filters or other components identified during inspection, such as air filters, cabin air filters, spark plugs, etc. These items should follow recommended replacement cycles and shouldn't be affected by extended oil change intervals.

How to Park with Automatic Electronic Parking Brake?

Parking steps for automatic electronic parking brake: After braking, the driver shifts to N gear, pulls the electronic handbrake after shifting, then shifts to P gear after releasing the brake, and finally turns off the engine. Automatic parking is an automatic braking function that simplifies operations, especially in heavy traffic conditions. Automatic parking must rely on an intelligent braking system, such as the ESP braking control system. When activated and the vehicle comes to a complete stop with the indicator light appearing on the dashboard, the driver can release the brake pedal. When the accelerator is pressed, the automatic parking will be automatically released. The electronic handbrake and the automatic parking system are not the same thing; they are two separate systems. Automatic parking is not achieved through the electronic handbrake.
