In-car dash cams can hear sounds inside the vehicle, provided that the recording function is turned on. Dash cams typically feature an external camera primarily designed to record driving conditions outside the vehicle, but they can also capture sounds inside the car, though they cannot record images of the interior. There are two wiring methods for dash cams as follows: 1. Connecting to the cigarette lighter: This method is simple but somewhat affects aesthetics and occupies a cigarette lighter port. Normally, the cigarette lighter is connected to the ACC, meaning it only has power when the ignition is on. Therefore, dash cams connected to the cigarette lighter cannot provide 24-hour parking surveillance. 2. Connecting to the fuse box: This allows direct connection to the car battery, enabling 24-hour parking surveillance. However, the drawback of connecting to the fuse box is that it is more complicated and usually requires professional installation. The advantage is that there are no exposed wires, resulting in a cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing appearance.

What is the normal range for tire pressure monitoring?

The normal range for tire pressure monitoring is between 2.2 and 2.5 bar. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire, and unstable tire pressure can reduce the tire's lifespan. Hazards of unstable tire pressure: 1. Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; 2. Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; 3. Accelerates uneven wear of the tread pattern in the center of the tire. The method to reset the tire pressure monitoring system is: 1. Ensure the vehicle's tire pressure is within the normal range; 2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and turn off the engine; 3. Power on the vehicle and hold down the tire pressure monitoring button; 4. After 5 seconds, a warning sound will be heard, and releasing the button indicates a successful reset.

What is the method to check the engine oil level?

To check the engine oil level, follow these steps: 1. Park the vehicle on a level surface; 2. After parking for 10 minutes, pull out the dipstick; 3. Hold the dipstick perpendicular to the ground to check the oil level. The standard for adding engine oil is to maintain the oil level between the minimum and maximum marks on the dipstick. The effects of excessive engine oil are: 1. It creates unnecessary resistance to the crankshaft rotation, affecting power output; 2. Reduces engine power; 3. Worsens exhaust emissions and damages the catalytic converter; 4. Causes engine oil leaks. The effects of insufficient engine oil are: 1. Affects the overall lubrication of the engine; 2. Causes damage to internally lubricated components such as the camshaft, crankshaft, cylinder liners, and bearings.

How to Read the Scale on a Torque Wrench?

To read the scale on a torque wrench, follow these steps: Align the pointer at the edge of the handle with the scale to directly read the value. The scale value where the handle is turned to represents the set torque value, which is measured in Newton meters (Nm) or kilogram-force meters (kgf·m). The unit is indicated on the dial. A torque wrench, also known as a torque spanner, moment wrench, or adjustable torque wrench, measures torque as the product of force and distance. It is essential for tightening screws and bolts to ensure they are securely fastened without damaging the threads due to excessive torque. Torque wrenches are categorized into: electric torque wrenches and manual torque wrenches, with the key feature being adjustable torque settings.
