When driving at night, pay attention to the following: 1. Prepare before departure: Get adequate rest before driving to ensure you are well-rested and energetic; perform necessary checks and maintenance, including inspecting all vehicle lights and electrical equipment, checking oil, water, and tire pressure, examining cargo loading and securing, and troubleshooting any parts or components that may affect driving safety to eliminate hazards and ensure all components function reliably; carry essential tools, common spare parts, and a work light for emergencies. 2. Approaching intersections: When encountering a continuously flashing yellow warning signal at an intersection while driving at night, reduce speed, stay alert, and proceed only after confirming safety. Drivers must remain vigilant and avoid cutting into lanes. 3. Slow down in poor road conditions: If you encounter construction signal lights while driving, slow down. In hazardous or unclear road conditions, stop to assess the situation before proceeding. 4. Avoid tailgating: When driving at night, visibility is often worse than during the day, and drivers frequently encounter dangerous or emergency situations. Therefore, drivers must be prepared to stop at any time. To avoid hazards, maintain a safe following distance to prevent rear-end collisions.

How to Remove Odors and Formaldehyde from a New Car?

Methods to remove odors and formaldehyde from a new car: 1. Use bamboo charcoal bags, which have strong odor-absorbing capabilities. They can effectively and directly eliminate odors inside the car, with long-lasting effects and quick results. 2. Car owners, especially those with new cars, should develop the habit of opening doors and windows before driving to allow circulating air to dilute and disperse toxic gases inside the vehicle. It's also advisable to keep windows open as much as possible while driving. 3. Fruit peels can also help with odor removal, such as those from pomelos and lemons. Pomelos function similarly to bamboo charcoal bags, both having odor-absorbing properties. Lemons, on the other hand, are effective due to their fresh and long-lasting fragrance, delivering excellent results.

What does the yellow exclamation mark on the car mean?

The appearance of an exclamation mark on the car dashboard indicates an abnormality or malfunction in the corresponding system. There are many indicator lights on the car dashboard with exclamation marks, such as the tire pressure indicator, lighting fault indicator, steering system fault indicator, brake system fault light, transmission fault indicator, and wiper fault indicator. Below is a detailed introduction to the exclamation mark warning lights: General faults: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a fault in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Main issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, engine oil pressure sensor failure, etc. It is necessary to go to a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic transmission fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a malfunction in the transmission or transmission lubricant level below the normal range. The transmission oil should be replaced promptly. Brake system fault: A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle. This represents a brake system warning, mainly indicating a brake system malfunction or low brake fluid level. The brake system should be inspected immediately to avoid accidents. Abnormal tire pressure: A horizontal line with parentheses and an exclamation mark below. This represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which lights up when the car's tire pressure is too low. Check the car's tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. This is the lighting fault indicator, indicating a fault in the car lights. Solution: Go to a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or check by yourself, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights, to identify the problem. In addition, during daily use of the vehicle, the warning lights displayed on the dashboard are divided into two different colors: yellow and red: Yellow indicates a fault in the corresponding system, but the problem is not very serious. Reduce speed and proceed to the corresponding repair point for maintenance to eliminate potential hazards in time. Red indicates a very serious problem in the corresponding system. In this case, do not continue driving. Pull over immediately and call for professional help to prevent unpredictable dangers to the vehicle and personal safety caused by forced driving. It should be noted that when the car is started, all lights will turn on, and the system will perform an automatic check. After the check is completed, the lights will turn off automatically. If a light does not turn on when the ignition is turned on, stays on without turning off, or lights up while driving, it indicates a fault in the related system. In such cases, seek professional help promptly for car inspection to eliminate potential hazards.

How Many Kilometers for the Break-in Period of a Power-Assisted Bicycle?

Generally, the first oil change is at 500 kilometers, and the second at 1300 kilometers. Maintenance is crucial for power-assisted bicycles. Oil Change for Fuel-Powered Bicycles: The engine oil of fuel-powered bicycles must be changed regularly, with the interval adjusted based on driving conditions and vehicle status, usually determined by various factors. For new vehicles, due to the higher amount of metal shavings during the break-in period, the first maintenance must be done within three months (1000 kilometers), including changing the fuel and oil filter. Subsequently, depending on various working conditions, the fuel and oil filter should generally be replaced every 2000–3000 kilometers.

Where is the car fuel tank generally located

For sedans, the fuel tank is typically located in the middle-rear section of the vehicle. However, depending on the car model, some fuel tanks are positioned on the right side while others are on the left. This applies to most vehicles, though there are exceptions. For example, the Honda Fit hatchback has its fuel tank in the central part of the car, basically beneath the driver's seat, to maximize rear passenger space. Considerations for body weight balance. Automakers like German and Japanese manufacturers place high importance on technology, particularly concerning weight distribution. The front of the vehicle already carries the heavy engine and steering system, so the fuel tank is usually placed under the rear seats. Combined with the driver's weight, this creates a diagonal balance between the fuel tank and the driver to maintain overall vehicle weight equilibrium. Driving direction also plays a role. The placement of the fuel tank is also designed for convenience during refueling. In some European countries where driving is on the right side of the road, the fuel tank is positioned on the right. Some may wonder why Korean cars, which also drive on the right, have fuel tank openings on the left. One explanation is that Korean manufacturers copied Japanese car designs without adapting the fuel tank position to their own driving habits. Safety considerations for refueling. The location of the fuel tank opening must account not only for convenience but also for safety. In the past, when cars were refueled using portable gas cans, having the fuel tank opening on the same side as the driver could lead to collisions during refueling. Therefore, positioning the fuel tank opening diagonally opposite the driver—toward the roadside—is safer. If you can't remember which side your fuel tank is on, check the fuel gauge on your dashboard; the small arrow indicates the location. For vehicles with a single exhaust pipe, the exhaust pipe is usually on the opposite side of the fuel tank.
