Due to the system not detecting the key signal or the anti-theft system not being unlocked, the steering wheel is locked, preventing the car from starting. This is an emergency response of the car's active anti-theft security system. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. For cars without keyless start: First, insert the key and press the brake, then turn the steering wheel left and right. Although the steering wheel is in a locked state at this time, it can be slightly rotated a little when turning. While turning the steering wheel, turn the key to complete the steering wheel unlocking procedure. If you are not skilled, the first attempt may not succeed in unlocking. Don't panic; remove the key and repeat the above steps 1-2 times, and it should unlock successfully. 2. For keyless start vehicles: The operation steps are basically the same as those with a key, except for the step of inserting the key. First, press the brake, then turn the steering wheel left and right, and finally press the start button to start the car.

What is 2.5 bar tire pressure in kPa?

Tire pressure of 2.5 bar is 250 kPa. The methods for tire pressure monitoring include: 1. Direct tire pressure monitoring; 2. Indirect tire pressure monitoring; 3. Using a tire intelligent monitoring system for detection. The effects of excessive tire pressure are: 1. Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; 2. Reduces tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; 3. Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern of the tire, affecting its service life; 4. Decreases puncture resistance, making it easier for sharp objects like nails or glass to penetrate the tire, leading to internal cracks or blowouts; 5. Overextends the tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing the load on the car while driving.
