Vehicle fire extinguishers use dry powder or water-based types, and their storage environment temperature should be within the range of -10 to 45 degrees Celsius. The placement location should be kept dry and ventilated to prevent the fire extinguisher from becoming damp and corroding. Fire extinguishers are divided into: 1. Aerosol fire extinguishers; 2. Dry powder fire extinguishers; 3. Ultra-fine dry powder fire extinguishers; 4. Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers; 5. Water-based fire extinguishers. The method of using a fire extinguisher is: 1. Bring the fire extinguisher to a location near the fire and stand on the upwind side of the fire; 2. Pull out the safety pin; 3. Hold the spray nozzle firmly with one hand; 4. Squeeze the handle tightly with the other hand; 5. Aim the nozzle at the base of the flames and sweep.

Should You Turn Off the Engine or Shift to P Gear First When Parking an Automatic Transmission Car?

When parking an automatic transmission car, you should shift to P gear first and then turn off the engine. This is for safety reasons, to prevent the driver from forgetting to shift to P gear. In fact, P gear is similar to N gear, but when shifting to P gear, a pawl in the transmission locks the output shaft, preventing the vehicle from moving. If you park on a slope and forget to shift to P gear before turning off the engine, the vehicle may move due to inertia, which can be dangerous. It's important to note that you must engage the handbrake before shifting to P gear. Only the handbrake can truly prevent the car from moving. The function of P gear is similar to shifting to first gear in a manual transmission car to prevent rolling.

Why is there still sound from the engine after the car is turned off?

The reasons why there is still sound from the engine after the car is turned off: 1. When the engine temperature is too high, even if the car is turned off and the key is removed, the cooling system will automatically start to cool the engine system, resulting in a whooshing sound, which is the sound of the electronic fan rotating at high speed; 2. After the engine system temperature drops, the cooling system will automatically stop working. This situation may last for three to five minutes. Modern cars are designed with a delayed cooling function to prevent the engine or turbocharger from overheating, which better protects the engine and turbocharger and extends their service life.
