Interior:• Restraints (seat Belt, Airbags, Belt Tensioner)

Air Bags:One of the major safety development is the fitting of the air bags as part of the equipment of new vehicles. Inflated airbags protect the driver and the front seat passenger from striking, respectively, the steering wheel and dashboard.

In an impact above 25km/hr, inertia sensors send a signal to the electronic control unit, which triggers the igniter unit. Pellets that create a gas when burnt are then ignited, and the airbags inflates. As the body of the occupant sinks into the airbag the gas is forced out of the vent hole.

Steering Wheel

A steering wheel (also called a driving wheel or hand wheel) is a type of steering control in vehicles and vessels (ships and boats).Steering wheels are used in most modern land vehicles, including all mass-production automobiles as well as light and heavy trucks. The steering wheel is the part of the steering system that is manipulated by the driver

Driver Controls

Accelerator, Clutch and Brake Pedals

An automobile may have two to four foot pedals. The arrangement is the same for both right- and left-hand traffic. From left to right:normally operated by the left foot:

clutch pedal, not in the case of automatic transmission brake pedal, which is sometimes wide and elevated above the car floorthrottle (known as the 'accelerator' or 'gas pedal'), controls fuel and air supply to the automobile's engine. It is usually narrow and close to the car floor allowing the driver's heel to rest on the car floor. It has a fail-safe design in that it automatically returns to the idle position when not depressed by the driver.

Accelerator, Clutch and Brake Pedals

Driver Controls

Hand Brake Lever

In cars, the hand brake (emergency brake, e-brake, parking brake) is a latching brake usually used to keep the car stationary

The mechanism is often a hand-operated lever (hence the hand brake name), on the floor on either side of the driver, or a pull handle located below and near the steering wheel column, or a (foot-operated) pedal located far apart from the other pedals.

Driver Controls

Gear Lever

A gear stick (also known as gearstick, gear lever, selection lever, shift stick and gear shifter) is the lever used to change gear in a vehicle, such as an automobile, with manual transmission or several common forms of automatic transmission.

Unit2 Chassis System 12.4a)Identify the reasons for carrying out regular or special vehicle inspections and adjustments

Reasons for carrying out regular Automobile Maintenance

Auto maintenance describes the act of inspecting or testing the condition of car subsystems (e.g., engine) and servicing or replacing parts and fluids.

Regular maintenance is critical to ensure the safety, reliability, drivability, comfort and longevity of a car.

During preventive maintenance, a number of parts are replaced to avoid major damage or for safety reasons, e.g. timing belt replacement.

The actual schedule of car maintenance varies depending on the year, make, and model of a car, its driving conditions and driver behavior.

Car makers recommend the so-called extreme or the ideal service schedule based on impact parameters such as

number of trips and distance traveled per trip per dayextreme hot or cold climate conditionsmountainous, dusty or de-iced roadsheavy stop-and-go vs. long-distance cruising towing a trailer or other heavy load

Auto maintenance describes the act of inspecting or testing the condition of car subsystems (e.g., engine) and servicing or replacing parts and fluids.

Regular maintenance is critical to ensure the safety, reliability, drivability, comfort and longevity of a car.

During preventive maintenance, a number of parts are replaced to avoid major damage or for safety reasons, e.g. timing belt replacement.

Common car maintenance tasks include:Car wash check/replace the engine oil and replace oil filters check/replace fuel filters inspect or replace windshield wipers check or refill windshield washer fluid inspect tires for pressure and wearTire balancingTire rotationWheel alignmentcheck, clean or replace battery terminals and top up battery fluidinspect or replace brake pads

PDI( Pre Delivery Inspection)

A pre-delivery service is performed on a new vehicle before it is delivered to the customer.

It is performed to check that the vehicle is in correct working order and is operating as the manufacturer intended.

It is also the time to check that the required options are installed and dealer fitted accessories are in order.

First Service

A first service is usually performed at around 1000 miles (m) or 1500 kilometers (km).

The function is to check the general condition of the vehicle, change the engine oil and make any minor adjustments.

The owner may also require some early warranty repairs.

Distance Based Service (Miles/ Kilometer):

Distance based services are used to maintain the vehicle at its optimum condition after a set amount of use.

The distance between the services varies and can range from 3000 m or 5000 km upward depending on the manufacturer.

Minor services are performed at shorter intervals, and major services performed at longer intervals.

A major service includes the items performed at a minor service, but also includes other service items that need to be performed less frequently.

At service, lubricants can be changed, items such as spark plugs and filters replaced and adjustments and checks performed on components that wear out, such as brake pads and tires.

Time Based (Months):

Time based services protect a vehicle from deterioration over time rather than from the usage, which is measured by the distance travelled.

These are performed when a vehicle is less used very much and travels only a small distance over a period of time.

Minor services are performed at 6-month intervals. Major services are performed every 12 months.

Lubricants and fluids have a service life and should be changed even if the vehicle has covered only a few miles or kilometers since the last service.

Time based services are also performed on a seasonal basis, to prepare the vehicle for the onset of summer or winter.

Computer Controlled ( On- Board Vehicle Computer)

A trip computer is an onboard computer device fitted to cars which can generally record distance travelled, average speed, average fuel consumption, and display real time fuel consumption information. This computer can be found in various vehicles

Sometimes the trip computer display will be incorporated into the gauge cluster, into the dashboard or navigation system screen, or in an overhead console.

Some vehicles will convey maintenance information to the driver to inform them of scheduled maintenance

Computer Controlled ( On- Board Vehicle Computer)

Safety Checks

Fluid Levels: oil, wipers, coolant, power steering, brake and transmission;

Brakes: for firmness;

Tire Pressure: and treads - keep an eye out for uneven wear;

Light Bulbs: in the trunk, under the hood and in the glove compartment;

All Lights: front, high and low beam, brake lights, directional and interior lights;

Belts, hoses and wires for wear, loosening or dislocation;

Spare tire and access to it.

Contents of First Aid and Car Safety Kit: update and replenish as necessary.

Warranty

In business and legal transactions, a warranty is an assurance by one party to the other party that specific facts or conditions are true or will happen;

the other party is permitted to rely on that assurance and seek some type of remedy if it is not true or followed.
