Because vehicles are stored and transported outdoors during the process, accumulating dust on the body. Cleaning the car before delivery is also a service provided by 4S stores. 1. Precautions: New cars come with a layer of wax from the factory. The first wash should be done at a professional car beauty shop, where you can also polish, seal the glaze, and apply anti-explosion film. There are many types of films, so it's important to choose a high-quality one, as inferior films can easily peel off or crack. 2. Correct washing method: For the first wash of a new car, it's best to go to a dust-free manual car wash facility. Use a neutral and mild detergent to thoroughly remove sand particles and dirt from the car's paint surface. Some contaminants are not visible to the naked eye, such as overspray, tree sap, alkali, acid, and other chemical pollutants. These must be completely removed, as a simple detergent won't suffice. Special clay bars should be used to gently wipe them away.

What is the speed limit on ramps?

Generally, the speed limit on ramps is 40km/h, and it increases to 60km/h in sections where the ramp approaches the main highway. While driving on ramps, motor vehicles are not allowed to overtake or exceed the speed limit. Pay attention to oncoming traffic when entering or exiting ramps. Ramps, also known as access roads, are typically short adjacent auxiliary roads that provide access to main highways. Their length is determined based on factors such as traffic volume and speed on the main highway, usually ranging between 150-200 meters. They are a key component of highway interchanges. Before entering a highway ramp, drivers should reduce speed in advance and observe the speed limit signs posted alongside the ramp. Overtaking is prohibited on ramps. When approaching the junction of the ramp, do not immediately merge into the main highway, as this may result in penalties. Instead, enter the acceleration lane first to increase speed to the required level before safely merging into the main highway lane. When exiting the main highway onto a ramp, reduce speed in advance, follow ramp signage, and avoid crossing the guide lines to prevent missing the ramp exit. Once missed, drivers cannot make a U-turn and must proceed to the next exit to leave the highway.

Where is the front side airbag located?

Front side airbags are located on the outer side of the front seats. Their function is to mitigate the impact from side collisions. By deploying, they directly reduce the impact between the body and the door panel, effectively protecting the safety of front-seat passengers. Most high-end vehicles are equipped with this type of airbag, which is mainly installed on the side near the windows. Typically, more than seven sensors are installed in the vehicle. When an impact is detected, these airbags will automatically deploy. The system primarily consists of sensors, a microprocessor, a gas generator, and the airbag itself. The sensors and microprocessor determine the severity of the collision. Through signal transmission and processing, an ignition operation is triggered, using solid fuel to inflate the airbag, causing it to rapidly expand to meet standard specifications.

What to Do When the Honda Accord Steering Wheel Locks Up?

Solution for a locked steering wheel in a Honda Accord: Gently turn the key with your right hand while lightly rotating the steering wheel with your left hand. Try this a few times, and the steering wheel will naturally unlock. Avoid using excessive force during the unlocking process to prevent damage to internal components. Press the brake pedal, then turn the steering wheel left and right, and finally press the start button to start the car. After turning off the engine, try not to touch the steering wheel. If you need to straighten the steering wheel, start the engine first before doing so. In terms of body dimensions, the Honda Accord measures 4893mm in length, 1862mm in width, and 1449mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2830mm. The body type is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan.

What is the maximum wading depth of the Lavida?

The maximum wading depth of the Volkswagen Lavida is 300mm. The wading depth of the Volkswagen Lavida is determined by the height of the vehicle's chassis, which is the ground clearance listed in the model's parameter configuration table. Generally, the greater the ground clearance, the higher the chassis, and the higher the safety factor when driving through waterlogged roads. Therefore, in terms of safe wading depth, the advantages of off-road vehicles and SUVs are obvious. However, for most compact and small cars with low chassis, the position of the vehicle's air intake should be used as a reference when passing through waterlogged roads. If the air intake of the Volkswagen Lavida is below the water level while wading, water will be sucked into the engine's cylinders. Since water cannot be compressed like air, it will cause severe damage to the engine's mechanical components (such as connecting rods, pistons, crankshafts, etc.). Therefore, the wading depth should not exceed the height of the engine's air intake. The height of the air intake, and thus the maximum wading depth, can also be increased by installing a snorkel. If wading is unavoidable, the following safe and correct operations should be performed: Before the vehicle enters the water, always turn off the auto start-stop function to prevent the engine from automatically restarting if the vehicle stalls in the water, which could cause severe damage due to water entering the engine. Assess the underwater road conditions based on the passage of vehicles ahead and choose an appropriate entry point. Observe the path taken by other vehicles and follow their tracks at a low speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration. On roads prone to water accumulation, observe warning water level markers, trees, and other reference points like the wheels and doors of other vehicles to estimate the water depth before deciding whether to proceed. Be aware of your vehicle's safe wading depth. If the water depth exceeds half the height of the tires or the engine's air intake, do not proceed recklessly. Instead, choose an alternative route.

When Should a Car Be Refueled?

Car should be refueled when the fuel gauge indicates one quarter of fuel remaining. Generally, when the fuel light comes on, it means the fuel level has dropped below the fuel pump, and the fuel in the tank is almost exhausted. When the fuel level is too low, the sediment at the bottom of the tank will be drawn into the fuel supply, which can easily cause fuel line blockage or fuel pump obstruction. Engine oil, motor oil, or engine lubricant is a substance enhanced with additives in base oil, mainly containing anti-wear additives, detergents, dispersants, and multi-grade oil viscosity index improvers. Engine oil is used for lubricating internal combustion engines. The main functions of engine oil are to reduce friction and wear of moving parts, and to remove sludge (one of the functions of dispersants) and varnish (cleaners) from the engine.

What is the installation direction of the air conditioning filter?

The installation direction of the air conditioning filter is to have the side with two clips facing outward and the side with three clips facing inward. The function of the air conditioning filter is to block and absorb various harmful substances in the air, reducing allergic irritation to passengers inside the vehicle. If the air conditioning filter is not replaced regularly, bacteria can easily breed and be discharged into the car interior through the ducts, which is harmful to human health. The replacement cycle of the car air conditioning filter depends on individual driving conditions, external environment, and seasonal climate. Generally, for urban household cars, it should be replaced every 10,000 to 20,000 kilometers or about once a year. If the driving environment is poor with more dust, the air conditioning filter tends to get dirty faster, and the replacement cycle should be appropriately shortened. Additionally, the frequency of air conditioning use varies in different seasons, so the replacement cycle also differs. In summer and autumn, when air conditioning is used less frequently, the replacement cycle can be slightly longer.
