Regardless of the type of vehicle, both the brake and accelerator are controlled by the same foot, which should be the right foot. This design is based on safety considerations, as it helps improve safety in emergency situations when people tend to panic. Below is additional information: 1. Automatic transmission vehicles do not require manual gear shifting, as the car shifts gears automatically. There is no clutch pedal, only the accelerator and brake, both controlled by the right foot. During driving, the left foot should not be placed on the brake pedal. 2. For manual transmission vehicles, the left foot is used to press the clutch pedal when shifting gears, but it should not remain on the pedal while driving. Both the brake and accelerator are controlled by the right foot.

Where is the handbrake in Geely cars?

Geely's handbrake is located on the left side of the gear shift. Here is more information about the handbrake: 1. Function: The car handbrake is used to keep the vehicle stationary when pulled up during parking, preventing the car from rolling downhill. When driving, pulling up the handbrake during a turn can create a drifting effect. However, the handbrake should not be used as a brake in emergency situations. 2. Concept: The parking brake, also known as the handbrake or the parking gear in automatic transmissions, locks the drive shaft or rear wheels. The parking brake provides much less force compared to the service brake and is only meant to prevent the car from rolling on slopes. 3. Types: There are different types of parking brakes, such as mechanical systems operated by hand or foot. Additionally, high-end vehicles are increasingly adopting electronically controlled parking systems, commonly known as electronic handbrakes.

Difference Between Scratches and Cracks on Car Glass?

The difference between scratches and cracks on car glass is that scratches exhibit obvious surface damage that can be felt by touch, while cracks appear as irregular lines or spider-web-like patterns radiating from the center. Below are methods for repairing car glass scratches: 1. DIY Repair: (1) Purchase specialized products designed for glass scratch repair. (2) Use a wool polishing pad to apply ferric oxide for repair. 2. Professional Repair: For larger scratches, entrust the repair to professional technicians at vehicle repair shops or auto beauty shops.

What is the difference between dual CVTC and ECVT?

The differences between dual CVTC and ECVT are as follows: 1. Dual CVTC: Dual CVTC is a variable valve timing system, which is a technology used in automotive piston engines. The variable valve timing system consists of solenoid valves and variable camshaft phase adjusters. By adjusting the camshaft phase of the engine, the intake volume can change with the engine speed, thereby achieving optimal combustion efficiency and improving fuel economy. The variable valve timing system can not only change the opening and closing times of the intake and exhaust valves but also enhance power output to some extent. Its principle involves using hydraulic action to alter the angle between the camshaft synchronous timing belt pulley and the end of the camshaft, thus changing the valve timing angle. 2. ECVT: ECVT can only be used in motor-driven or hybrid vehicles and is not applicable to gasoline engines. It adjusts speed through the motor, features an all-gear structure, can withstand greater torque, and offers higher efficiency and faster speed.

What are the reasons for the abnormal noise in the rear brake of the UY125?

The reasons for the abnormal noise in the rear brake of the UY125 are as follows: 1. Break-in period for new vehicles: New vehicles or recently replaced brake discs and pads will have a break-in period, during which some abnormal noises are unavoidable. These noises typically disappear after driving a few hundred kilometers. 2. Normal activation of the ABS system: During emergency braking, the brake pedal may produce a continuous "thudding" sound, sometimes accompanied by a pulsating sensation. This indicates that the ABS system is activated, which is normal. In such cases, firmly press the brake pedal all the way down, but this applies only to vehicles equipped with an ABS system. 3. Metal hard spots on the brake pads: Brake pads may contain small metal particles, which can produce sharp, screeching noises when lightly braking. This issue can be resolved by forcefully applying the brakes several times, removing and regrinding the brake pads, or replacing them with higher-quality ones. 4. Severe wear on the brake disc: Wear on the brake disc can create deep grooves around its circumference. Friction between the brake pads and the edges of these grooves can cause abnormal noises. If the grooves are not too deep, grinding the edges of the brake pads to avoid contact with the groove edges may solve the problem. If the grooves are very deep, replacing the brake disc is necessary. Generally, it is recommended to replace the brake disc every two brake pad replacements.
