If you directly shift into P Park and stop the car on a slope, the vehicle may roll. For safety reasons, always engage the parking brake when parking. Below is relevant information about the parking brake: 1. Principle: The professional term for the parking brake is auxiliary brake. Unlike the main braking system, the parking brake uses a steel cable connected to the rear brake shoes to stop the car. Prolonged use of the parking brake can cause the steel cable to undergo plastic deformation. Since this deformation is irreversible, long-term use will reduce its effectiveness and increase the parking brake's travel distance. 2. Supporting Tool: A return spring is used in conjunction with the parking brake. When the parking brake is engaged, the spring stretches; when released, the spring returns to its original length. With prolonged use, the spring will also undergo corresponding deformation.

Is shifting from second to third gear diagonally upward?

Shifting from second to third gear is diagonally upward, but it involves passing through neutral. When shifting from second to third gear, with the clutch pedal depressed, push the gear lever forward. Manual transmission cars use a manual shift mechanical transmission to adjust the vehicle speed, meaning that moving the gear lever changes the gear engagement position inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed variation. The clutch must be depressed to move the gear lever. The corresponding speeds for manual transmission gears are: 1st and 2nd gears correspond to speeds of 5 to 20 kilometers per hour; 2nd and 3rd gears correspond to speeds of 20 to 40 kilometers per hour; 3rd and 4th gears correspond to speeds of 40 to 60 kilometers per hour; and 4th and 5th gears correspond to speeds of 60 to 100 kilometers per hour.

Is it necessary to inflate tires at 2.1 bar pressure?

A tire pressure of 2.1 bar requires inflation, and car owners should maintain tire pressure around 2.5 bar. Tires are the only components of a car that come into contact with the ground, and they are crucial for driving stability and safety. Tire pressure is extremely important—it should neither be too high nor too low. The hazards of low tire pressure include: 1. Shortening the tire's service life; 2. Increasing the friction coefficient with the road surface; 3. Creating unsafe driving conditions by making the vehicle prone to veering off course; 4. Increasing the movement of various parts of the tire, leading to excessive rolling and abnormal heat generation; 5. Multiplying the friction between the tire and the ground, causing a sharp rise in tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength; 6. Accelerating rubber aging, breaking the cords, and hastening wear on the tire shoulders.
