Car waxing can protect the car's paint surface, while polishing can damage the paint. Here are some precautions for waxing: 1. New cars should not be waxed. The paint layer of a new car already has a protective wax coating. Waxing too early will remove the original wax on the new car's surface, causing unnecessary waste. 2. Control the frequency of waxing. Depending on the driving environment and parking location of the vehicle, the interval between waxing should vary. 3. Before waxing, wash the car body with water to remove dirt and dust, but avoid blindly using dish soap or soapy water. 4. Wax the car in a shaded area to ensure the car body does not overheat.

What is the reason why the tire pressure light goes off after pressing the reset button?

The reason why the tire pressure light goes off after pressing the reset button is that the tire temperature is too high during driving, causing the tire pressure to approach the upper limit. If the tire pressure does not continue to increase at this time, the light may come on briefly and then go off. Tire pressure reset method: First, turn on the ignition switch, press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "beep" sound, then release it. The tire pressure monitoring system will store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the original data, and finally the fault light on the dashboard will go off, completing the tire pressure reset. Hazards of excessive tire pressure: The friction and adhesion of the tire will decrease, affecting braking performance; it can cause steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; it accelerates the wear of the central tread pattern, shortening the tire's lifespan; it increases body vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; it causes excessive stretching and deformation of the tire cords, reducing the tire's elasticity and increasing the load on the car during driving; puncture resistance decreases. When encountering sharp objects such as nails or glass on the road, they can easily penetrate the tire, and impacts can cause internal cracks and blowouts, leading to tire bursts.

Where is the battery located in a NIO car?

Next to the engine. NIO cars use CATL's ternary lithium-ion batteries. Most electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles generally use ternary lithium-ion batteries. Ternary lithium-ion batteries have higher energy density and are lighter in weight. The cathode of such batteries is made from ternary materials. Some ternary lithium-ion batteries use nickel, cobalt, and manganese for the cathode, while others use nickel, cobalt, and aluminum. Below is an introduction to the NIO brand: Brand History: NIO was founded in 2014, with its headquarters in Shanghai. The founders include Li Bin and a group of internet entrepreneurs, with Li Bin serving as the chairman. NIO is a globally oriented startup brand, with research and development, design, production, and business operations in 13 locations including San Jose, Munich, London, and Shanghai, bringing together thousands of top-tier talents in the automotive, software, and user experience industries. Models: In addition to the debut EP9 electric car, NIO has also launched the 7-seater SUV NIO ES6. Here, 'E' stands for pure electric, 'S' for SUV, and '6' for the performance level. In China, where the demand for SUVs is the highest, the choices for pure electric SUVs are very limited, so NIO has introduced another pure electric SUV, the NIO ES8.

How much fuel does a car consume in one hour of idling?

A car consumes approximately 2L of gasoline during one hour of idling. During idling, the intake pressure is low and the airflow is weak, requiring the engine to inject more fuel to maintain a higher air-fuel mixture concentration to keep the engine running, which also increases fuel consumption. Reasons for increased idling fuel consumption: The reason idling leads to higher fuel consumption is that the engine is operating in an abnormal state. During idling, the engine speed is very low, the intake swirl weakens, and fuel atomization is poor, resulting in incomplete combustion. The prolonged fuel burning time and increased cylinder heat dissipation losses also contribute to higher engine fuel consumption. For naturally aspirated engines, the low intake pressure and weak airflow during idling necessitate the engine to inject more fuel to maintain a higher air-fuel mixture concentration for operation, further increasing fuel consumption. Idling performance: When the engine is running and the accelerator pedal is completely released, the engine enters an idling state. When adjusting the idle speed, the RPM should not fluctuate abruptly, as this can cause premature wear to the engine. It is best to have the idle speed adjusted at an automotive repair facility. The idle speed can be adjusted by modifying the throttle opening and idle fuel supply. Generally, the optimal idle speed is the lowest RPM at which the engine does not shake within the idling range and maintains good acceleration performance.
