Quickly pull over to the right side of the road to prevent safety hazards from stopping in the middle of the road. If the vehicle automatically switches to fuel-driven mode, you can continue driving. For CNG vehicles converted to dual-fuel (gasoline/CNG) systems, you can switch to gasoline mode to start the engine after running out of CNG. The fuel-driven mode can easily take you to the nearest CNG station. Consider finding another vehicle to rent a mini CNG tank from the station. After filling it, bring it back to your vehicle to add natural gas, which should be enough to reach the nearest CNG station. If none of the above methods are feasible, contact a tow truck to bring your vehicle to the nearest CNG station.

What Do the Blue and Red Colors Represent in Car Air Conditioning?

In car air conditioning, blue represents cooling, while red represents heating. Here is some extended information: 1. Air Conditioning Zoning Switch: Keeping the upper and lower vents blowing the same temperature of warm air for a long time can dry out your face and even cause discomfort. During long drives, you might experience uncomfortably hot air blowing on your face. This is where the air conditioning zoning switch comes into play. Simply adjust the position of the red-blue switch manually to change the temperature of the upper and lower vents, making it very practical. 2. Proper Use of Recirculation Mode: Recirculation mode blocks the hot air from outside, creating a sealed space inside the car. This allows the interior air to circulate quickly under the air conditioning's effect, achieving rapid cooling. Once the interior temperature has dropped, switch to fresh air mode every 30 minutes to purify the air inside the car, then switch back to recirculation mode after 5 minutes.

How Deep Water Can New Energy Vehicles Pass Through?

Vehicles can pass through water areas with a depth of 70cm at low speed. The following is the relevant introduction about new energy vehicles wading through water: 1. Design: Nowadays, pure electric vehicles are generally designed with a closed front face, unlike traditional fuel vehicles that have various designs. The main reason is that new energy vehicles are driven by electricity and do not require an air intake to assist combustion like fuel vehicles. Additionally, exhaust holes are generally not designed, which effectively avoids the problem of water ingress in new energy vehicles. 2. Waterproof standard: Currently, the waterproof standard of new energy vehicles on the market has reached IP67 level. Under normal circumstances, electric vehicles that meet this standard can park on roads with one meter of accumulated water for up to half an hour without water ingress. The IP67 level is the highest civilian level available now, commonly used in devices like mobile phones and computers, indicating that under normal circumstances, the shell can be briefly submerged in one meter of water without causing harmful effects.

Why does the car's air conditioning have no wind in gears 1-3 but has wind in gear 4?

The reason why the car's heater switch only has wind in the fourth gear is due to the burnout of the heater speed control resistor. Below is a related introduction to the car air conditioning system: 1. Introduction to car air conditioning: The car air conditioning system consists of a compressor, condenser, throttle element, evaporator, fan, and necessary control components. It is used to regulate the temperature and humidity inside the car, providing a comfortable environment for the driver. 2. Working principle: When the compressor is working, it sucks in low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant from the evaporator. After compression, the temperature and pressure of the refrigerant increase, and it is sent to the condenser. Inside the condenser, the high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant transfers heat to the outside air passing through the condenser and liquefies, turning into a liquid. When the liquid refrigerant flows through the throttle device, its temperature and pressure decrease, and it enters the evaporator. Inside the evaporator, the low-temperature and low-pressure liquid refrigerant absorbs heat from the air passing through the evaporator and evaporates, turning into a gas. The gas is then sucked into the compressor again for the next cycle.

Can vehicles undergo annual inspection in other regions?

Currently, the traffic management authorities have fully implemented cross-provincial inspection services for small cars, trucks, and medium-sized buses. Applicants can directly undergo inspection in provinces other than the vehicle's registration location and obtain the inspection qualification mark without needing to apply for an entrusted inspection procedure. However, large passenger buses and school buses cannot be inspected in other regions and must return to the vehicle's registered location for inspection. Annual inspection process: Check whether the engine, chassis, body, and their auxiliary equipment are clean, complete, and effective; whether the paint surface is uniform and aesthetically pleasing; whether the main assemblies have been replaced and match the initial inspection records; whether the vehicle's braking performance, steering control, lights, exhaust, and other safety performance meet the requirements of the "Technical Conditions for Safe Operation of Motor Vehicles". Check whether the vehicle has been modified, remodeled, or transformed; whether the driving license, license plate, and all vehicle file registrations match the actual condition of the vehicle and whether any changes have been made; whether approval and change procedures have been completed. Check whether the license plate, driving license, and the enlarged license plate print on the vehicle are damaged, altered, or unclear, and whether replacement is needed. For large vehicles, check whether the unit name or the name of the street, township, or town where the vehicle is located and the maximum number of passengers allowed in the driver's cabin are printed in Chinese imitation Song font on both sides of the door as required. For trucks, check whether the rear fender (including the trailer's rear fender) has the vehicle number printed in 2~3 times larger size as required; for individual or joint-operation vehicles, check whether the word "individual" is printed on both sides of the door. The print must be clear, and printing unit codes or other patterns is not allowed (special cases require approval from the vehicle management office).
