Driving with a loss of tire pressure is not advisable as it can cause damage to the tires and even lead to dangerous accidents. Continuing to drive with low tire pressure can result in the following issues: The friction coefficient between the tires and the road surface increases, leading to higher fuel consumption. It makes the steering wheel heavy and prone to veering, which are factors detrimental to driving safety. The movement of various parts of the tire increases, causing abnormal heating due to excessive rolling. The functionality of the cords and rubber deteriorates, leading to delamination or cord breakage, excessive friction with the rim, and damage to the bead area, resulting in abnormal wear. The friction between the tire and the ground multiplies, causing a sharp rise in tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength. High-speed driving under these conditions can lead to a blowout. The tire body deformation increases, making the tire sidewalls prone to cracking, while also causing flexing movements that lead to excessive heat, accelerating rubber aging, fatigue in the cord layers, and cord breakage. It also increases the tire's contact area with the ground, speeding up wear on the tire shoulders.

Where is the AUX interface in Lexus UX?

The AUX interface in Lexus UX is located under the center armrest. Open the armrest to see it. The AUX is an audio input interface. Its basic working principle is that after connecting to the AUX interface, the audio from electronic devices can be transmitted to the car audio system via the headphone jack and AUX interface, allowing playback through the car audio broadcasting facilities. The USB interface can be used to insert a USB drive for audio playback. To use it, connect one end to the AUX interface and the other end to devices like smartphones, MP3 players, or MP4 players. This allows you to listen to songs or niche music anytime, anywhere, without being limited to car music CDs. However, if the playback device runs out of power, the music will stop (the interface is typically a 3.5mm standard headphone jack). Aux, short for Auxiliary, refers to an additional signal line design. In general audio equipment, besides the standard output and input terminals, there are often several terminals labeled Aux, serving as backup connection points. These can be used for special applications, such as additional audio output or input. Such backup terminals or lines, whether for input or output, are collectively referred to as Aux. Function: The AUX port is an asynchronous port, mainly used for remote configuration, dial-up connections, or connecting to a MODEM via a transceiver. It supports hardware flow control. The AUX port and CONSOLE port are usually placed together because they are used in different configuration environments. The AUX interface establishes a command-line connection between the user and the device, enabling operations that are typically impossible in user mode, such as initialization, restoring default settings, or correcting abnormal user modes. It provides a fixed port for the device, which can be used as a standard asynchronous serial port with a maximum speed of 115200bit/s. Using the AUX interface, remote configuration and line backup functions for hardware products can be achieved. Note: When using the AUX interface, ensure you purchase the correct connecting cable and avoid inserting the audio cable into the wrong port. It's best to follow the steps outlined in the product's user manual. If unsure, consult the product's official website or customer service hotline.

Does the Front of the Car Touching the Line During Reverse Parking in Subject 2 Result in Deduction?

Touching the line with the car body is considered as the car body crossing the line, which results in a 100-point deduction, making the test unsuccessful. Other actions that also result in a 100-point deduction include crossing the line with the car body, not completing the parking, stopping midway, not following the prescribed route, not following the sequence, and exceeding the time limit. The total score for both subjects is 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failure, 20-point deduction, 10-point deduction, and 5-point deduction. The rules for the Subject 2 driving test for obtaining a motor vehicle driver's license state that any of the following actions will result in failure: stopping midway during the test, rolling back, not following the voice prompts, wheels crossing the line, or the car body touching the line. Many learners encounter the issue of touching the line during Subject 2 training, and the most common mistake leading to failure is "touching the line." The main reason for wheels touching the line is that learners fail to master the correct timing for steering. Besides missing the right moment to steer, another reason could be that the steering speed does not match the car's speed. Subject 2 Deduction Criteria: Not wearing a seatbelt: 100-point deduction. Starting the engine without the gear in neutral: 100-point deduction. Not using turn signals (including starting, changing lanes, overtaking, turning, and parking); using turn signals for less than three seconds (note that this is easily overlooked!); forgetting to turn off turn signals or using them incorrectly: 10-point deduction. Stalling once: 10-point deduction. Reverse Parking: Not following the prescribed route sequence: 100-point deduction. Car body crossing the line: 100-point deduction. Not completing the parking: 100-point deduction. Before reversing, not ensuring both front wheels pass the control line: 100-point deduction. Exceeding the 210-second time limit for the task: 100-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction each time. Slope Parking and Starting: After stopping, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line and exceeds 50 cm forward or backward: 100-point deduction. After stopping, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line but does not exceed 50 cm forward or backward: 10-point deduction. After stopping, if the starting time exceeds 30 seconds: 100-point deduction. Wheels touching the road edge line while driving: 100-point deduction. Rolling back more than 30 cm when starting: 100-point deduction. After stopping, if the car body is more than 50 cm from the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Not tightening the parking brake after stopping: 10-point deduction per occurrence. After stopping, if the car body is more than 30 cm but less than 50 cm from the road edge line: 10-point deduction per occurrence. Rolling back more than 10 cm but less than 30 cm when starting: 5-point deduction per occurrence. Parallel Parking: After parking, if the car body crosses the line: 100-point deduction. Not using or incorrectly using turn signals when parking: 10-point deduction. Exceeding the 90-second time limit for the task: 100-point deduction. Car body touching the parking space edge line while driving: 10-point deduction per occurrence. Wheels touching the lane edge line while driving: 10-point deduction per occurrence. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction per occurrence. 90-Degree Turn: Wheels touching the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Not using or incorrectly using turn signals during the turn, or not turning off turn signals after the turn: 10-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction per occurrence. Curve Driving: Wheels touching the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 100-point deduction. Not driving in second gear or above: 5-point deduction.

Will the battery run out if the seat heating is left on overnight?

Leaving the seat heating on overnight will not drain the battery, as the power supply is cut off after the car is turned off, preventing the seat heater from continuing to operate. Therefore, it is impossible for the seat heating to remain on all night unless the vehicle is left running. Seat heating works by using electric heating wires inside the seat to warm the interior, transferring heat to the occupant through thermal conduction. This improves comfort in winter when the seat becomes too cold after prolonged parking. The seat heating function only operates when the ignition is turned on. If the vehicle's voltage drops, the seat heating system will automatically shut off to ensure sufficient power supply for the engine control system.
