The reasons for the ABS and anti-skid yellow lights to come on are as follows: Issues with the anti-skid system: For example, driving on icy or snowy roads can cause differences in braking between the front and rear wheels due to varying rotation speeds, especially when braking is applied. This may trigger the ABS light. In such cases, pressing the brake pedal several times can often turn off the ABS light. Damaged ABS sensor on the wheel: Check if the handbrake light is also on. If both the ABS and handbrake lights are illuminated, it may indicate a serious fault in the vehicle's braking system. In this situation, you should not continue driving. Immediately slow down, pull over to the side of the road, and contact a repair station for assistance.

How to Use the Electric Sunroof?

Press the electric sunroof button, and the sunroof will automatically open or close. Precautions for using the electric sunroof include: 1. Avoid opening the sunroof when driving on uneven roads, as excessive vibration between the sunroof and the slide rails may cause deformation of related components or even damage the motor. 2. Before opening the sunroof, make sure to open the shade panel first to prevent overloading the sunroof motor, which could lead to malfunctions. 3. In winter, low temperatures can harden the sunroof's sealing strip. Opening the sunroof immediately in such conditions may cause the rubber seal to crack, overloading and damaging the motor. The correct method is to turn on the heater after entering the car and wait for the ice to melt before opening the sunroof. 4. When using a high-pressure water gun to wash the car, avoid directing the water jet at the sealing ring, as the strong pressure may deform the seal, allowing water to seep in and damage it. 5. In dusty or sandy weather, it's advisable to clean the sunroof's tracks monthly to prevent excessive sand accumulation, which increases friction and wears down components. 6. Perform a thorough cleaning and lubrication of the sunroof every three months to extend its lifespan.

How to Properly Start a Manual Transmission Car?

Manual transmission starting and ignition correct steps: 1. Before starting, ensure the gear is in neutral and the handbrake is engaged. This step serves to secure the car on the ground, preventing it from rolling during startup. 2. Simultaneously press the brake and clutch pedals. For safety reasons, the engine will only allow startup when the driver presses the brake pedal. 3. Insert the key into the ignition switch and turn it right through two positions. The first position is the "ON" position, where the car's electrical system is powered but the engine does not start; the second is the "START" position (ignition position). Hold the ignition position for two seconds until the vehicle starts. To prevent rolling, keep both feet on the clutch and brake pedals even after startup. Notes: 1. When starting, it's not necessary to fully release the clutch. During the starting process, only lift the clutch to the semi-engaged state. 2. In the semi-engaged state, observe the vehicle's RPM. When the tachometer shows the RPM approaching around 1000, the right foot can release the brake and gently press the accelerator to accelerate the car. During acceleration, the clutch can be gradually released completely.

What type of fuel should be used for the Mercedes-Benz E300?

The Mercedes-Benz E300 should use 95-octane gasoline, as officially announced by the manufacturer. In addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the vehicle's user manual, you can also find it on the fuel tank cap, which will be clearly marked. Typically, the fuel grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92-octane gasoline, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95-octane gasoline. If the compression ratio is higher, 98-octane gasoline is recommended. However, with the application of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the appropriate gasoline grade. High compression ratio engines can also be tuned to use lower-octane gasoline because, besides the compression ratio, other factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Higher gasoline grades have higher octane ratings and better anti-knock properties. 92-octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95-octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. If the Mercedes-Benz E300 occasionally uses the wrong gasoline grade, simply switch back to the correct grade after the current tank is used up. However, long-term use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles designed for lower-octane gasoline, using a higher-octane grade will not cause damage, but the increased octane rating can alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This results in reduced engine power and thermal efficiency, with the practical effect being poorer performance. For vehicles designed for higher-octane gasoline, using a lower-octane grade can cause engine knocking. Because the octane rating is too low, the gasoline's ignition point decreases, causing it to ignite prematurely during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug fires during the compression stroke, resistance will develop during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. If the knocking is mild, it may only increase noise without significant engine damage. However, noticeable knocking indicates severe engine conditions, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, and in severe cases, cylinder scoring.
