AOFF button stands for the Auto Start-Stop function. The Auto Start-Stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (such as at a red light) during driving. When it's time to move again, the system automatically restarts the engine. Additional information: Main types of engine start-stop technology: 1. Separate starter motor: This type of start-stop system uses independently designed starter and generator. The starter provides the power needed for engine startup, while the generator supplies electrical power to the starter. 2. Integrated starter-generator: The integrated starter/generator is a synchronous motor excited by permanent magnet inner rotor and single-tooth stator, which can integrate the drive unit into the hybrid powertrain system.

What does AVG mean on a Nissan car?

AVG is the abbreviation for average. The AVG on the car dashboard refers to the average fuel consumption. Calculation of average fuel consumption: Fill up the fuel tank and reset the odometer to zero. Drive more than 100 kilometers on your usual route, such as commuting to work. Then, refuel at the same gas station—you don't need to empty the tank, just fill it up again. Record the amount of fuel added in liters, denoted as A, and check the odometer for the distance traveled, denoted as B. The actual fuel consumption per kilometer can be calculated using the following formula: Actual fuel consumption per kilometer = A/B × 100. For example, if you travel 150 km and consume 14 liters of fuel, the result is 9.3 liters per 100 kilometers (L/100km).

What are the reasons for high fuel consumption?

There are several main reasons for high fuel consumption in cars: poor driving techniques, engine usage conditions, and lack of maintenance during vehicle use. Below are specific situations that lead to high fuel consumption: Causes of high fuel consumption in cars: Abnormal tire pressure or switching to oversized tires: Underinflated tires can affect fuel consumption. When tire pressure is too low, the contact area between the tires and the road increases, leading to greater driving resistance, which naturally results in higher fuel consumption. Long idling without turning off the engine or frequent ignition: During prolonged waits when the vehicle doesn't need to move, it's recommended to turn off the engine. Every time the engine starts, the computer-controlled fuel injection volume is higher, so frequent engine starts within a short period will definitely increase the vehicle's fuel consumption. Aggressive acceleration and frequent braking while driving: Unless absolutely necessary, avoid frequent overtaking on the road. Maintaining a steady speed helps reduce fuel consumption. Additionally, maintaining a proper following distance and minimizing unnecessary braking can also save fuel. Driving at low gear with high speed or high gear with low speed: This situation is more common among new drivers. Often, the vehicle's speed is already high, but the driver fails to upshift accordingly, leading to increasingly higher engine RPM and a surge in fuel consumption. Another scenario is driving at very low speeds while staying in a high gear, which is most noticeably characterized by engine and body vibrations, with the risk of stalling at any moment. Fully open windows in summer or using air conditioning in traffic jams: Turning on the air conditioning in summer increases engine load, leading to higher fuel consumption. Poor route planning, driving on congested roads, or frequent lane changes: For this issue, it's recommended to plan the route in advance, check local traffic information and road conditions, and avoid congested sections.

Should Turning Vehicles Yield to Straight-going Vehicles or Vice Versa?

Turning vehicles should yield to straight-going vehicles. However, turning vehicles are not required to yield to straight-going vehicles in all situations. There are two scenarios where straight-going vehicles must yield to turning vehicles; otherwise, it constitutes a traffic violation. Yielding on Auxiliary Roads: Vehicles going straight on auxiliary roads must yield to vehicles turning in from the main road. Roads are divided into main roads and auxiliary roads. Regardless of direction, vehicles on auxiliary roads must yield to vehicles on the main road. Some intersections may also have yield signs, so it's crucial to slow down and not force your way through. Yield Signs: When encountering an inverted triangle yield sign on the road, drivers must slow down and yield, allowing other vehicles to pass before proceeding. Forcing your way through could lead to accidents for which you would bear full responsibility. Even straight-going vehicles must yield to turning vehicles in such cases.

How long is the validity period of driving school insurance?

Vehicle insurance is divided into compulsory traffic insurance, commonly referred to as compulsory insurance, and commercial insurance, which includes third-party insurance and vehicle damage insurance. Generally, the insurance period is one year. Introduction one: The full name of the driver's license is the motor vehicle driver's license, also known as the "driver's license". It is a certificate required by law for motor vehicle drivers. Introduction two: Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills. Without these skills, driving a motor vehicle at will may lead to traffic accidents. Generally, people cannot drive on the road without a license, but for those who have mastered safe driving skills, the document that allows them to drive on the road is the "driver's license". This indicates that a driver's license is a "permit".

Is the Subject 2 Exam Acceptance Status the Same as Application Status?

No. Detailed Explanation: Application acceptance refers to the status where you have selected an examination venue but are still awaiting results, which is displayed as 'Application in Progress.' If it remains as 'Acceptance in Progress,' it may indicate an unsuccessful booking attempt, often due to high demand in certain areas. If acceptance is not confirmed within five working days, you need to reapply. A persistent 'Application in Progress' status means the booking hasn't succeeded yet and is still under processing, requiring patience. Additional Tips: Book as early as possible within the system's available time slots; avoid peak booking periods, i.e., times showing high exam congestion; prioritize booking examination slots with higher availability rankings.

Can a fragrance system be installed as an aftermarket accessory?

Fragrance systems can be installed as aftermarket accessories. Here's an introduction to fragrance systems: Advantages: The fragrance dispenser is part of the vehicle air conditioning components, differing from any traditional form of car perfume. The fragrance dispensing device absorbs fragrance through a micropump, then circulates the scent through the vehicle's ventilation ducts to distribute fragrance throughout the cabin. It eliminates the pungent sensation associated with traditional car perfumes, delivering fragrance at just the right rhythm—like bathing in the fresh air of nature, rich yet pleasantly comfortable. Features: The fragrance spray generator can adjust the interior scent according to personal preferences. It doesn't permanently alter the vehicle's interior odor, and fragrance molecules won't deposit on fabric surfaces or passengers' clothing.
