The air conditioning can be turned on when the engine is not started. The functions of the air conditioning include the following 3 points: 1. Provide fresh air: It can prevent the car windows from fogging up, ensuring clear visibility for the driver and safe driving; it can supply fresh air to the passenger compartment, preventing occupants from inhaling harmful gases and ensuring driving safety; it can effectively sterilize and deodorize. 2. Ensure safety and hygiene: It can keep the air in the passenger compartment clean and free from bacterial growth, effectively filtering out solid impurities such as dust, core powder, and grinding particles from the air; it can effectively block pollen, ensuring that passengers do not experience allergic reactions that could affect driving safety. 3. Adsorb harmful substances: It can adsorb moisture, soot, ozone, and odors from the air, with strong and durable moisture adsorption capabilities.

Why does the Sagitar Manganese Black turn greener when exposed to sunlight?

The Sagitar Manganese Black is not actually a highly saturated or pure black. In bright lighting conditions, it may appear slightly grayish or greenish. This becomes more evident when compared to the Phantom Black of the Magotan. When strong light is shone on the side, the Manganese Black Sagitar presents a silver-gray hue, while the Phantom Black Magotan remains black. Additional Information: Sagitar Color Comparison: Unlike Mazda or Subaru, which are often associated with red or blue, the Sagitar does not have a strong color preference. Therefore, in the used car market, whether it's white or black does not significantly affect the Sagitar's resale value. However, colors like Storm Blue, Pacific Blue, and Romani Red may have a slight impact on resale value. These colors are more difficult to repair. If the car has no paint chips or aging issues, it's fine; otherwise, used car dealers may find it more troublesome to refurbish, potentially affecting the transaction.

Why Does the Mercedes-Benz Rear Emblem Flip Up?

Behind the emblem, a rearview camera for reversing is installed. Its technical name is the flip-up rear emblem. When the vehicle needs to reverse, the driver simply shifts into reverse gear, and the rear emblem automatically rotates and flips up, allowing the reversing camera to clearly capture the rear view. This seemingly small detail offers a novel experience to many who are unaware of it. Below is some related information: History of Mercedes-Benz: Mercedes-Benz was founded in 1926 by Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler. Its predecessors were the Benz & Cie. and Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft, established in 1886. The two companies merged in 1926 to form Daimler-Benz AG. The Mercedes-Benz Logo: The Mercedes-Benz logo is a three-pointed star, symbolizing the ambition to dominate land, sea, and air. This emblem was created after the merger of Daimler and Benz. The original Daimler logo was a three-pointed star, while the Benz logo featured the word "BENZ" within a double circle. After the merger, the Daimler-Benz logo became a single three-pointed star within a circle. Making the three-pointed star shine globally has been Mercedes-Benz's dream for over a century and remains its relentless pursuit.

Will Wiping the Car with a Towel Damage the Paint?

Whether wiping the car with a wet towel damages the paint depends on the cleanliness of the towel and the surface of the car. Only when both the towel and the car's surface are clean will the paint not be damaged. Therefore, you should pay attention before wiping the car with a wet towel. If the wet towel is dirty, wiping the car will damage the paint. If you use a clean wet towel but the car's surface is dirty with a lot of mud or other impurities, the paint will be damaged regardless of the towel used. In such cases, it's recommended to first rinse off the dirt with a high-pressure water gun before wiping with a towel. It is advisable to use a dedicated car cleaning towel, which is a fabric or leather tool designed for cleaning car surfaces. The main component of car paint is resin, which has relatively large molecular gaps. After coating, small molecular elements such as silicon, silicon dioxide, and nano-inorganic silicon in the coating liquid can fully penetrate into the molecular gaps and micropores of the paint, forming a transparent crystalline layer similar to a smartphone screen protector on the surface. This significantly enhances the hardness and scratch resistance of the paint surface, providing long-term sealing protection and keeping the paint shiny and new for a long time.

Where is the Ford hood release switch located?

Ford Focus's hood release switch is located above the left foot rest pedal. Below is some information about the engine hood: 1. Introduction: The engine hood (also known as the bonnet) is one of the most noticeable body components and a part that car buyers frequently inspect. The main requirements for an engine hood are heat insulation, sound insulation, lightweight construction, and high rigidity. 2. Composition: Structurally, the engine hood is generally composed of an outer panel and inner panel with heat insulation material sandwiched in between. The inner panel serves to enhance rigidity, with its geometric shape selected by manufacturers, typically in a skeletal framework form. 3. Principle: When flipped backward, the engine hood should open to a predetermined angle without contacting the windshield, maintaining a minimum clearance of approximately 10mm. To prevent accidental opening during driving due to vibration, the front end of the engine hood must have a safety lock hook mechanism. The lock release switch is positioned under the dashboard inside the cabin, and the hood should remain locked when the doors are locked.
