The mileage for the first maintenance is not enough. After the due date, you can apply for a deferred maintenance by explaining the condition of the car. Subsequent maintenance should be done every 5,000 kilometers. The most important part of car maintenance is changing the engine oil and oil filter. The most frequently checked parts during car maintenance are the tire surface and pressure, oil level, coolant level, and brake fluid level. Information about the first maintenance is as follows: 1. The first maintenance time has two indicators: mileage and time, whichever comes first. Exceeding either one will affect the warranty. 2. The first maintenance time is calculated based on the date of car delivery. 3. It is better to drive at high speeds after the first maintenance. Because driving at high speeds actually means increasing the engine speed, which increases mechanical wear. The first batch of engine oil contains the most metal debris and impurities. Using this oil with a large amount of debris for high-speed driving will greatly increase engine wear.

What Kind of Xenon Lights Should You Choose for Your Car?

For your car, you should choose xenon lights that can reach a stable luminous flux of 25% within 1 second of startup. Here is some knowledge about xenon lights: 1. Hot start time: After the xenon headlights are turned off when operating stably within 15 seconds, some boosters can allow the bulb to reach 80% of maximum brightness within 1 second of being powered on, with almost no noticeable delay. However, other boosters may require a delay of 3-5 seconds for the bulb to reach 80% of maximum brightness. Naturally, boosters with shorter delays are of better quality. When both the booster and bulb are functioning normally, they can handle repeated on-off actions. 2. Types of boosters: The boosters available on the market generally come in two types—dual-unit and single-unit. It's easy to see that single-unit boosters are more convenient to install compared to dual-unit ones.

What is Kinergy tire?

Kinergy is a brand under Hankook. The tire size is 235/65R17. Hankook was established in 1941 as Korea's first tire company. Hankook supplies radial tires for light trucks, SUVs, trucks, buses, and special racing vehicles. With five R&D centers worldwide and three regional headquarters (China, Europe, and the Americas), Hankook tires are distributed in 180 countries globally. When using Kinergy tires in daily driving, pay attention to the following points: Regularly inspect the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to driving wear, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread pattern wears flat, it will lose its drainage and anti-skid functions, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Small cracks may also pose hidden dangers of tire blowouts during high-speed driving. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles lodged in the grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that may deteriorate rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool down overheated tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires are prone to overheating, and tire pressure may increase. In such cases, park to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this may cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the road surface.

Does It Matter If a Piece of the Tire Is Missing?

Tire missing a piece of rubber is a concern as it may pose safety hazards. If the sidewall of the tire is peeling, it is recommended to replace the tire, as the sidewall rubber is the weakest part and prone to blowouts from the damaged area. If the depth and width of the damage are less than 3 millimeters, it can be used as a spare tire. Additional information: 1. Impact of tire peeling: The thickness of tires is designed with specific requirements. If a piece of the tire is missing, it can affect tire pressure, potentially causing issues with increased tire pressure in summer. It can also create safety hazards during high-speed driving. If a piece of the tire is missing, it is advisable to have it inspected at a repair shop to assess the extent of wear. 2. Importance of tires: Car tires are one of the critical components of a vehicle, bearing the weight of the car and directly contacting the road surface. Together with the car suspension, they help absorb shocks during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smooth driving. Any damage to the tire should be taken seriously, as tires bear all the weight of the vehicle, and a blowout can be extremely dangerous.

What is the small light below the car headlight called?

The small light below the car headlight is called the fog light. Here is an introduction to fog lights: 1. Turning on fog lights: After turning on the parking lights, you can then turn on the fog lights. The front fog lights can be turned on individually, while the rear fog lights can only be turned on together with the front fog lights and cannot be activated separately. There are two main styles of fog light switches: button-type and rotary-type. Different car manufacturers have their preferred methods for turning on fog lights. 2. Function of fog lights: In conditions of poor visibility such as foggy or rainy weather, fog lights help other vehicles see your car. Therefore, fog light sources need to have strong penetration. Most vehicles use halogen fog lights, while more advanced models may feature LED fog lights. Fog lights must be installed below the bumper, at the position closest to the ground on the car body, to ensure their effectiveness. If installed too high, the light cannot penetrate the rain or fog to illuminate the road (as fog is generally thinner below 1 meter in height), which could easily lead to dangerous situations.
