When making a U-turn, the maximum speed should not exceed 30 kilometers per hour, and the left turn signal must be activated in advance to avoid obstructing other normally moving vehicles and pedestrians. Permissible situations for making a U-turn: Intersections with U-turn signs: If there is a clear U-turn sign at the intersection, a U-turn can be made. If there is a U-turn traffic light, follow its instructions. If there is no traffic light, make the U-turn based on the specific situation without hindering other vehicles or pedestrians. Intersections without explicit prohibition of U-turns or left turns: If there is no explicit sign prohibiting U-turns, a U-turn can be made. 'No explicit prohibition' means the absence of 'No U-turn' signs, 'No Left Turn' signs, or solid center lines, allowing a confident U-turn. Yellow grid lines also permit U-turns: Yellow grid lines are no-parking zones, typically marked at intersections prone to congestion due to temporary stops, entrances of important institutions, or other necessary locations. Parking (including waiting at traffic lights) on these lines is a violation. Although stopping is prohibited, U-turns are allowed in yellow grid line areas unless there is a central barrier, making them equivalent to 'U-turn permitted.' Intersections with U-turn traffic lights: This is straightforward—if there is a U-turn traffic light, proceed only when it is green. Simultaneous 'No Left Turn' and 'U-turn permitted' signs: U-turns are allowed even if left turns are prohibited, but 'No U-turn' is not the same as 'No Left Turn.' Points to note when making a U-turn at an intersection: Observe road markings. If they are solid lines, U-turns are prohibited under any circumstances. Continue driving to find a suitable spot. If there is a 'No Left Turn' sign, even without a 'No U-turn' sign, U-turns are not allowed at that intersection because U-turns inherently involve a left turn. U-turns must be made from the innermost left-turn lane. If in the second left-turn lane, U-turns are not permitted at that intersection. Always yield to straight-moving vehicles. Only proceed with a U-turn if it does not interfere with their normal movement, or you will bear full responsibility for any accidents. Near intersection stop lines, lanes usually have guiding arrows. The leftmost lane may not always have a left-turn arrow; if it has a straight arrow, U-turns are prohibited even without explicit 'No U-turn' signs.

How Many Kilometers Can a Car Run When the Fuel Gauge Shows Empty?

When the fuel gauge shows empty, a car can typically run for about 30 kilometers, but the exact distance depends on driving conditions. Below are methods to extend the driving range and precautions regarding engine oil: Methods to Extend Driving Range: Maintain a steady speed and drive smoothly; turn off in-car electronics; close windows to reduce wind resistance; use mobile navigation to avoid congested routes. Precautions Regarding Engine Oil: Ensure the engine oil level is not too high—do not exceed the upper limit on the dipstick. Excessive oil can increase engine load, reduce power, and over time, damage the engine's ventilation system, increase carbon buildup, and even lead to oil burning.

What is the normal temperature range for engine oil?

Engine oil normally operates within a temperature range of 70-90 degrees Celsius. The effects of excessively high oil temperature are as follows: Causes component wear: If the oil temperature is too high, it can affect certain automotive components, especially those located far from the radiator in the coolant circulation path or with structurally weak designs. Prolonged exposure can easily lead to damage or even complete burnout. Affects oil viscosity: This not only results in severe wear of some engine components (due to oil film breakdown), but in serious cases can also cause cylinder scuffing and bearing seizure. Reduced vehicle power: Excessively high oil temperature can also cause premature combustion of fuel injected into the cylinders, leading to insufficient compression force and decreased power output. This has significant negative impacts on both fuel consumption and overall vehicle performance.

What does SCR urea system failure mean?

Engine SCR warning light indicates a malfunction in the corresponding component functions. Substandard quality of diesel exhaust fluid (DEF): Low-priced inferior DEF solutions in the market contain excessive insoluble substances and impurities that can cause nozzle clogging and damage. Residual DEF solution after injection: After engine shutdown, crystallized urea residue in the nozzle pipelines can cause blockages in both the pipelines and nozzles. Prolonged SCR system inactivity: The urea nozzle is located in the exhaust pipe and constantly exposed to high temperatures. It relies on DEF circulation for cooling during operation. Without this cooling effect, the urea nozzle becomes prone to damage. Extended SCR system dormancy leads to crystallized DEF residue blocking pipes and nozzles, while prolonged lack of liquid immersion reduces the lifespan or causes damage to SCR system components.

Should the AC button be turned off when using the car heater?

When using the car heater, the AC button should be turned off. The AC button is used for air conditioning adjustment. It can be turned on in summer when using the cold air to start the air conditioning compressor for cooling. However, it should be turned off in winter when using the heater. The AC button does not operate the air conditioning compressor for heating, and the heater does not rely on the compressor for heating. Instead, it transfers the engine's heat to the interior of the car, so there is no need to turn on the AC button when using the heater. The car air conditioning system is designed to regulate the temperature and humidity inside the car, providing a comfortable environment for passengers. The AC button is the cooling switch for the air conditioning system, controlling the operation of the compressor. The cooling function of the car air conditioning relies on the operation of the compressor.
