The coolant is located in the coolant reservoir on the right side of the engine compartment. The coolant reservoir has MAX and MIN level marks on the side. When the engine is cold, if the coolant level is below the MIN mark, it should be topped up. The amount to add should be based on the marks on the reservoir, ensuring it stays between the MAX and MIN levels. Below are the functions of automotive antifreeze: 1. Antifreeze: Coolant mixed with ethylene glycol can be used in temperatures as low as -70°C. The freezing point ranges between -20°C and -45°C, allowing for appropriate selection based on regional needs. 2. Boil prevention: The higher the concentration of ethylene glycol, the higher the boiling point of the coolant. 3. Corrosion prevention: The primary function of coolant is to prevent corrosion.

What to Do When the Rearview Mirror Has Water Droplets and Is Unclear on Rainy Days?

Here are the solutions for unclear rearview mirrors due to water droplets on rainy days: 1. Rain Guards + Rearview Mirror: Installing rain guards on the rearview mirror is a cost-effective solution. These guards are typically attached to the door window glass and work quite well. The installation process is very simple and can be completed in just a few minutes. However, their effectiveness is limited during heavy rain, though they perform well in light rain. 2. Soap Water, Detergent, or Shampoo + Rearview Mirror: Applying a layer of soap water on the rearview mirror works very effectively, keeping the mirror clear for 2-3 hours even in heavy rain. Shampoo and similar products yield similar results. 3. Water Repellent: Water repellents prevent water from adhering to the rearview mirror surface. There are two types of glass water repellents available on the market: those that are applied by wiping and those that are sprayed. Between the two, the wipe-on type provides more even coverage on the glass surface. When water repellent is applied to the glass, rainwater forms into small round droplets, which quickly roll off on an inclined glass surface.

How to Operate One-Button Start in a Manual Transmission Car?

Here is how to use the one-button start in a manual transmission car: 1. Open the car door and enter the vehicle, then adjust the seat and fasten the seatbelt; 2. Check if the gear is in neutral. If not, shift the gear back to neutral first; 3. Press the clutch pedal all the way down and press the one-button start. Here is some related information about manual transmission: 1. The gearshift lever must be manually moved to change the gear meshing device inside the transmission, thereby altering the gear ratio to achieve shifting. 2. The principle is that the power input shaft is connected to the clutch. The power transmitted from the clutch is directly passed to the gear set through the input shaft. The gear set consists of gears with different diameters, and different gear ratios result in completely different power transmission effects. The gear shifting during normal driving refers to changing the gear ratio.

Under what circumstances are motor vehicles not allowed to make a U-turn at an intersection?

Article 49 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates: Motor vehicles are not allowed to make a U-turn at locations with signs or markings prohibiting U-turns or left turns, as well as at railway crossings, pedestrian crossings, bridges, sharp curves, steep slopes, tunnels, or sections prone to danger. Motor vehicles can make a U-turn at locations without signs or markings prohibiting U-turns or left turns, but they must not obstruct the normal passage of other vehicles and pedestrians. Here are several situations where U-turns are not allowed: 1. Presence of a "No U-turn" sign The following is the most intuitive "No U-turn" sign. If you see this sign, U-turns are strictly prohibited at this location. 2. "Composite" No U-turn signs, such as the one below. As long as we clearly understand the content, we can drive accordingly. 3. Presence of a "No Left Turn" sign Some intersections have signs prohibiting left turns. If you see this sign, it means U-turns are also prohibited here. Since making a U-turn requires a left turn first, prohibiting left turns inherently prohibits U-turns. 4. The leftmost lane has only a straight arrow If the leftmost lane has only a straight arrow, even if there is no "No U-turn" sign, U-turns are not allowed. 5. On pedestrian crossings Motor vehicles are not allowed to make U-turns on pedestrian crossings. If a U-turn is permitted at the intersection, it should be made after crossing the pedestrian crossing. 6. Sections with solid center lines U-turns are not allowed at locations with solid lines. You must wait for the green light and cross the stop line before making a U-turn. Otherwise, making a U-turn over a solid line will result in penalties. 7. When the left turn signal is red A red left turn signal not only prohibits left turns but also prohibits U-turns. 8. On highways U-turns are strictly prohibited on highways. Making a U-turn on a highway will result in a 12-point penalty and a fine.
