Fire extinguishers generally do not explode in a car. The specific requirements for storing a vehicle fire extinguisher are as follows: 1. Storage environment: Vehicle fire extinguishers are mostly dry powder extinguishers, and the storage temperature for such extinguishers is within the range of -20°C to 55°C, so under normal circumstances, they will not explode. However, it should be noted that excessively high temperatures can cause some parts of the extinguisher to age, which can easily lead to leakage. Therefore, the storage location should avoid direct sunlight and be kept in a cool place. 2. Storage position: Store it in a readily accessible location, as this allows for quick access to the extinguisher in case of a car fire. Vehicle fire extinguishers are usually quite small, so they can be placed directly in the glove compartment or the passenger-side luggage compartment, or even under the seat. However, they should not be placed in the trunk, as in the event of a rear-end collision or a fire causing electrical failure, retrieving the extinguisher from the trunk can be very difficult.

How to Drive a Manual-Automatic Transmission Car Up a Steep Slope?

When climbing a slope with a manual-automatic transmission, you can switch to manual mode and select first or second gear to maintain the engine speed above 3,000 RPM, effectively preventing the automatic transmission from frequently shifting. Below are some key methods for driving a manual-automatic transmission car up a steep slope: 1. At startup, shift the gear lever to the manual position and start in first gear. After starting, you can shift to second gear, then to third gear at around 30 km/h, and fourth gear at approximately 50 km/h. 2. While driving in automatic mode, you can shift the gear lever to the manual position at any time to enter manual mode, automatically switching to the current gear. 3. The transmission will downshift automatically during braking or deceleration without manual intervention. To force a downshift, pull the gear lever back once. In manual mode, the transmission will only downshift automatically—most cars will not upshift automatically. During normal driving, the transmission will downshift based on speed. 4. There is no need to release the throttle when shifting gears. 5. If the required speed or RPM is not reached, the gear lever cannot be used to upshift.

What does the AC on the car's air conditioner mean?

AC is the abbreviation of air condition, which can be understood as air control or air regulation. Its function in a car can be understood as the air conditioning cooling switch. When the A/C light is on, it means the air conditioning compressor is activated, increasing the engine load and fuel consumption. The following is relevant information about AC: 1. When cooling is needed, press the AC button and adjust the temperature selection switch to the blue part, then turn on the fan switch to get cold air. If it is an automatic air conditioner, you can also press the AUTO button at the same time, and the automatic air conditioner will adjust the interior temperature automatically. 2. When heating is needed in winter, adjust the temperature selection switch to the red part and turn on the fan switch to get warm air, without pressing the AC button again.
