The shifting speeds for gears 1 to 5 are as follows: 1. 1st gear: Used for normal starting or climbing very steep slopes. The speed is generally around 10 km/h when using this gear. 2. 2nd gear: Used as a transition gear for acceleration after starting, or for low-speed driving or climbing steep slopes. The speed is generally around 20 km/h. 3. 3rd gear: Used when the speed is between 20-40 km/h, commonly used for city driving. 4. 4th gear: Used when the speed is between 40-60 km/h. 5. 5th gear: Used when the speed reaches 60 km/h. Additional information: Generally, to engage 1st gear, push the gear lever to the left and then forward; to engage 2nd gear, push the gear lever to the left and then downward; to engage 3rd gear, push the gear lever straight upward from the neutral position; to engage 4th gear, push the gear lever straight downward from the neutral position; to engage 5th gear, push the gear lever straight to the right and then upward (specific instructions may vary depending on your vehicle's gear markings).

As a long-time enthusiast of manual transmission cars, I believe that the shifting speed depends mainly on the engine RPM rather than the specific vehicle speed. Generally, for manual cars like family sedans, shifting between 2000 to 4000 RPM is most appropriate. Shifting too low, such as at 1500 RPM, can result in insufficient power or even stalling, while shifting too high, like above 5000 RPM, increases fuel consumption and noise. During normal driving, I usually shift up between 2500-3000 RPM, especially in congested city traffic, to maintain smoothness and fuel efficiency. For vehicles with similar displacement, such as small-displacement models like the CM300, the shifting points are roughly within this range, but it's essential to consider actual road conditions and load. Developing the habit of listening to the engine sound is crucial, and smooth clutch operation can reduce wear. With practice, it becomes second nature.

With a few years of manual driving experience under my belt, I've learned that mastering shift timing makes driving much smoother. Typically, shifting up around 2500 RPM after starting provides the most comfortable acceleration—it's fuel-efficient without being sluggish. I only push to 4000 RPM for gear changes when overtaking on highways, going for that extra power feel. Regarding CM300 operation, I recommend beginners start getting familiar with shifting at 3000 RPM to avoid transmission damage from shifting too early or too late. For safety, try to maintain steady RPM when cornering or driving on wet roads to prevent abrupt gear changes, as keeping the vehicle stable is crucial.

From the perspective of safety and maintenance regarding shift speed, I always shift gears between 2500-3500 RPM to avoid accidents. Shifting at too low RPM can cause jerking and loss of control, while shifting at too high RPM accelerates clutch wear and wastes fuel. Ordinary motorcycles like the CM300 are designed to operate within this range, and gear shifts should be performed gently without abruptly engaging the clutch. Regularly checking transmission oil and clutch wear helps extend component lifespan. If jerking occurs, it's time for a workshop inspection.

How to clean the clogged sunroof drain holes of the Teana?

Methods to deal with clogged sunroof drain holes of the Teana are as follows: 1. Inflation method: Use an air gun to aim at the drain holes of the two front drain pipes inside the sunroof, and use high-pressure airflow to blow through the drain pipes. Be careful not to use too strong airflow to avoid splashing dirty water onto yourself or inside the car. Remember that the air pressure should not be too strong, otherwise it may cause the rubber joints and drain pipes to detach, leading to continued leakage. 2. "Enema method": Using a syringe to flush the drain pipes should be able to clear them. Practical experience has proven this method to be very effective and simple to perform. First, use the syringe to extract the water from the sunroof drain trough to prevent water from flowing into the car through the drain trough.

Do I need to drive the car for inspection after owning it for four years?

If the new car is an exempt vehicle, you don't need to drive it for inspection. During the 6-year exemption period for new cars, you only need to provide proof of compulsory traffic insurance, vehicle and vessel tax payment or exemption every 2 years, and then directly apply for the inspection mark from the traffic management department of the public security bureau. If it is a non-exempt vehicle, you need to drive it for the annual inspection. Below is additional information: 1. Vehicle Annual Inspection: Vehicle annual inspection (or motor vehicle inspection) refers to the annual inspection of vehicles that have already obtained official license plates and vehicle registration certificates, conducted in accordance with the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." The purpose is to check the main technical conditions of the vehicle, urge the strengthening of vehicle maintenance, keep the vehicle in good condition, and ensure driving safety. 2. Required Documents for Annual Inspection: (1) For individuals: original vehicle registration certificate; duplicate of compulsory traffic insurance; copy of ID card; vehicle. (2) For organizations: original vehicle registration certificate; duplicate of compulsory traffic insurance; Organization Code Certificate of the People's Republic of China (with official seal); power of attorney (with official seal); copy of agent's ID card; vehicle.

Where is the automatic folding switch for the Roewe i5 rearview mirror?

The Roewe i5 rearview mirror folding switch is located below the central control screen, integrated with the rear windshield heating button. After pressing the automatic folding button or rotating the button to the automatic folding position, both side mirrors will fold simultaneously. Generally, the automatically folded mirrors will unfold automatically the next time the vehicle is started. Here is some extended information about automatic folding mirrors: 1. Automatic folding mirrors: The rearview mirror folding function allows the car's side mirrors to fold and retract when necessary, available in both manual and electric versions. 2. Function: They can be retracted when passing through narrow sections, improving the vehicle's passability. When the driver leaves the car, the mirrors can also be folded, not only protecting the mirror surface but also reducing parking space, effectively avoiding scratches.

How to Replace a Lost Car Key?

Go directly to the car 4S store for replacement. Every car comes with an anti-theft code configured with the vehicle. As long as the owner provides the driving license and identity information to the 4S store, the store can obtain the vehicle's anti-theft code based on the provided information and configure a new key. Some 4S stores may also recommend replacing all the locks on the car to ensure safety. Precautions: 1. Avoid hanging decorations on the key: During the bumps and jumps while driving, excessive decorations on the key can cause wear and tear on the ignition switch's limit components and contact points through the lock cylinder, leading to looseness and premature damage. Over time, this may result in difficulty starting the engine or stalling due to power loss while driving. 2. Keep the spare key separate from the main key: Do not lock the spare key inside the car, especially for vehicles with one-button start or engine anti-theft features, as the spare key can fully start the engine.

Why Does the Transmission Gear Grind?

Transmission gear grinding usually occurs when the gear is not properly engaged. If the clutch is not fully disengaged during gear shifting, not only will there be gear noise, but it can also easily lead to gear grinding. Additionally, if the transmission lubricant contains large impurities, such as iron filings from long-term wear, and these get caught between the transmission gears during rotation, it can also easily cause gear grinding. Transmission maintenance: 1. Regular inspection: It is essential to regularly check the fluid level in the transmission to ensure it remains within the specified range and top it up as needed based on actual working conditions. When topping up, ensure that the new fluid is of the same type. When changing the fluid, do it while the transmission is operating to promptly drain the old fluid and clean the system. Regularly inspect the working condition of the transmission gears to ensure optimal meshing between gears, and clean them promptly to maintain proper alignment between gears and shafts. 2. Adjust driving habits: Continuously improve driving habits during daily use. When shifting gears, use the prescribed methods to prevent gear damage, lever fork damage, and other issues related to the shift lever.
