The first letters of the Chinese pinyin for the words 'national', 'provincial', and 'county'—G, S, and X—are used as their respective identifiers, with the identifiers followed by numbers to form the numbering. Numbering of provincial highways: The numbering of provincial highways is compiled within the scope of provincial administrative regions; the numbering of provincial radial highways is also compiled within the scope of provincial administrative regions. Radial lines (starting with 1), vertical lines (starting with 2), horizontal lines (starting with 3), vertical connecting lines (starting with 4), horizontal connecting lines (starting with 5), and ring lines (starting with 6).

What Are the Common Faults When an Angle Grinder Fails to Rotate?

Common faults that may cause an angle grinder to stop rotating include: power disconnection; loose or detached connectors; poor switch contact; lack of contact between the brushes and commutator surface; burnt switch contacts; mechanical jamming. Below is relevant information about angle grinders: Usage Tips: Before use, always check whether the angle grinder has a protective cover, whether the cover is secure, and whether the grinding disc is properly installed. Precautions: It is strictly prohibited to use damaged grinding discs. During cutting, prevent sparks from scattering to avoid harming others and keep away from flammable and explosive materials. Always wear protective goggles and appropriate work clothing. Avoid loose-fitting clothing, do not wear jewelry, and tie back long hair. Never operate the grinder while wearing gloves or with unbuttoned cuffs.

Does Turning on the Heater While the Car is Running Consume More Fuel?

If you turn on the heater immediately after starting the car without allowing it to warm up, it will consume significantly more fuel. However, if you wait until the car has warmed up before turning on the heater, the additional fuel consumption is minimal and can be practically ignored. Here are some relevant details: Does using the heater in winter consume fuel while driving? The interior heating system relies on the car's cooling system, which is independent of the engine's RPM and power output. Therefore, it does not consume extra fuel while driving. However, if you idle the car to enjoy the heater, it will consume fuel. Precautions when using the car heater: Do not press the A/C button. Pressing the A/C button activates the compressor, which turns on the air conditioning. The heater, on the other hand, does not require this, as it simply redirects some of the heat from the engine's cooling system into the cabin. Using the air conditioning alongside the heater will counteract some of the engine's power, leading to increased fuel consumption. Wait until the car has warmed up before turning on the heater. When the car is first started, the engine oil needs time to circulate from the oil pan to all components. Turning on the heater during this period will inevitably increase the engine's workload.

What are the effects of not changing transmission oil for a long time?

Failure to change transmission oil can lead to issues such as oil inefficiency and deterioration, impaired heat dissipation, and damage to components. Therefore, vehicle owners should replace the transmission oil as required. The primary function of engine oil is to lubricate the engine. If not changed for an extended period, the oil can become ineffective and deteriorate, exacerbating engine wear. In severe cases, this can lead to engine cylinder scoring. The cleaning role of engine oil is compromised if the oil is problematic, making it unable to effectively remove impurities (such as carbon deposits and metal particles) generated on the surfaces of working parts. Over time, this can affect heat dissipation and lubrication, and in severe cases, clog oil passages, leading to engine damage or even complete failure. The cooling efficiency of the oil diminishes, adversely affecting certain automotive components, especially those with relatively fragile structures. Prolonged use under such conditions can easily cause damage or even complete burnout. Below are the functions of transmission oil: The main role of transmission oil is to keep the gear system clean and to lubricate the transmission components, thereby extending their lifespan. Transmission oil serves to clean, lubricate, cool, and seal the transmission. Due to the specific operating conditions within the transmission, the quality of the oil has a limited shelf life. Over time, its performance degrades, and it accumulates more impurities, accelerating the wear of transmission components and leading to premature failures or higher failure rates.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Volkswagen Lavida?

The Lavida currently has 11 models on sale or about to be launched. The 2022 Lavida model has a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters. It comes with 2 engine displacements: 1.4T and 1.5L, and offers 3 transmission options: dual-clutch, manual, and automatic. The engine delivers a maximum power of 110.0kW, maximum horsepower of 150PS, and maximum torque of 250.0N·m. The vehicle dimensions are 4670×1806×1474mm (L×W×H). Among them, the 2018 Lavida and 2021 Lavida models both have a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters, while the 2019 Lavida has a slightly larger capacity of 52.8 liters. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, leaving some space from the safe fill level to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with E (Empty) and F (Full). When the pointer is near E, it indicates low fuel, while nearing F means the tank is sufficiently full.
