Most models under the Lexus brand feature a foot brake or an electronic handbrake. The foot brake is located below the main driver's steering wheel; pressing it down is equivalent to engaging the handbrake. The operation of the foot brake is similar to that of the handbrake: pressing the foot brake pedal will stop the car. When driving, pressing the foot brake pedal again will allow the car to move forward. Below is more information about the handbrake: 1. To use the handbrake, pull it upwards to stop the car. Lowering the handbrake lever while driving allows the car to move. 2. The electronic handbrake button is usually located behind the gear lever. Cars equipped with an electronic handbrake have handbrake motors on both rear wheels. Pressing the electronic handbrake button causes the motors to clamp the brake pads, preventing the car from rolling. 3. Cars with an electronic handbrake often also come with an autohold function, which is very useful when waiting at traffic lights.

What are the symptoms of a faulty vehicle high-voltage line?

The symptoms of a faulty vehicle high-voltage line are: 1. The spark released by the spark plug will appear dark yellow and lack sufficient energy, making it difficult to effectively ignite the air-fuel mixture; 2. The spark plug electrodes may fail to release sparks, preventing the air-fuel mixture from burning and resulting in engine misfire. Engine misfire leads to reduced power, increased fuel consumption, and noticeable vibration and noise. Prolonged fuel injection without ignition in the engine cylinder can also cause gasoline flooding. Symptoms of ignition coil failure: 1. At idle, the vehicle body shakes noticeably; 2. While driving, when the engine speed is below 2500 RPM, the vehicle body exhibits significant shaking and weak acceleration; the shaking sensation disappears once the speed exceeds 2500 RPM. 3. Upon opening the engine hood and observing the running engine, noticeable engine vibration can be detected.

Can You Step on the Accelerator in the Semi-Engaged State?

The semi-engaged state allows for stepping on the accelerator. The working states of clutch usage include: 1. Fully engaged state, where the driving technique involves not depressing the clutch; 2. Disengaged state, where the driving technique involves fully depressing the clutch; 3. Semi-engaged state, where the driving technique involves partially depressing the clutch. The correct method to depress the clutch: use the ball of your foot to press the clutch with the heel as the pivot point, which allows for better control of the clutch and a more precise grasp of the semi-engaged state. The key points of using the car clutch are: press quickly, release slowly, and engage. Quickly depress the clutch, release it slowly during the process, and the third step is to maintain the semi-engaged state while stepping on the accelerator during startup, making it easier to start the car and avoid stalling.
