Vehicle spontaneous combustion is not covered under the auto damage insurance, as it does not include spontaneous combustion. Below is extended information regarding spontaneous combustion within the first three years of a new vehicle: 1. Manufacturer liability for new vehicle spontaneous combustion: Firmly seek assistance from the local consumer protection committee. Upon the committee's request, after investigation by the local public security bureau's fire brigade, it is confirmed that the vehicle's spontaneous combustion "can exclude human factors." The fundamental principle of the law is the accountability system. Consumers who have been cleared of human factors and are without fault should not bear the loss. If there are no human factors in the vehicle's spontaneous combustion, the only remaining cause is the product's quality issue. Therefore, the manufacturer should compensate for all resulting losses. 2. Consumers do not need to purchase vehicle spontaneous combustion insurance during the "Three Guarantees" period: Within the validity period of the "Three Guarantees," any vehicle accidents caused by quality issues, provided that consumer-caused human factors are excluded, the dealer should be responsible for compensation. As long as it is within the validity period of the "Three Guarantees" or the manufacturer's promised warranty, the manufacturer should be accountable for the vehicle's quality. Spontaneous combustion insurance is a type of insurance designed for the vehicle's own quality issues. Hence, consumers do not need to purchase vehicle spontaneous combustion insurance during the vehicle's warranty period.

Where is the Mercedes-Benz reversing camera switch?

Shift the gear lever into R gear to automatically switch to the reversing camera. There is no physical button; the image appears when reverse gear is engaged. The following steps show how to operate the Mercedes-Benz reversing camera: 1. To activate the reversing camera, first shift the manual or automatic transmission into the reverse gear. 2. Wait for a second or two, and the rear area of the vehicle will be displayed on the COMAND-APS screen in the car. The reversing camera is only a parking aid and cannot comprehensively eliminate obstacles. Therefore, the following points should also be noted when using it: 1. Objects too close to the rear bumper cannot be displayed. 2. Objects below the rear bumper cannot be displayed. 3. The scarf area above the trunk handle/trunk lid handle groove cannot be displayed. 4. While reversing, in addition to paying attention to the rear area, also use auxiliary tools such as rearview mirrors and side mirrors to observe the surroundings of the vehicle. 5. When the trunk is open, or during heavy rain, snow, fog, or in very dark or nighttime conditions, the reversing camera's performance may be affected. Therefore, drivers should try to use rearview mirrors and side mirrors to observe while reversing in these situations.

What are the precautions for a new motorcycle?

Precautions for using a new motorcycle include properly transitioning through the break-in period according to the user manual and performing timely maintenance and care. Break-in period transition: The motorcycle should be fully warmed up, and the engine should be sufficiently warmed before starting. Begin by driving in low gear for 1-2 kilometers before shifting to higher gears. Strictly adhere to the speed limits specified in the user manual during the break-in period. The load should be kept below half of the maximum capacity, and it is best to avoid carrying passengers or cargo while driving on flat roads. During the break-in period, frequently vary the engine speed and ensure all gears are properly broken in. Avoid keeping the throttle at a fixed speed for prolonged periods to ensure balanced load distribution among components, but do not exceed the specified maximum RPM. Pay attention to engine cooling; during the break-in period, control driving time appropriately to avoid prolonged operation. Generally, after every 30 minutes of driving, turn off the engine and let it rest for a while to aid in cooling and heat dissipation. Timely maintenance and care: Follow the manual to promptly change the engine oil and air filter, and regularly inspect components such as the chain, brakes, and lights. Before reaching 1,000 kilometers, all mandatory inspection items for the first maintenance must be completed to extend the motorcycle's service life.

What is the difference between D gear and S gear in an automatic transmission car?

The differences between D gear and S gear are as follows: 1. S gear is more responsive than D gear: After shifting into S gear, upshifting is delayed. During driving, when the accelerator is suddenly pressed, S gear responds quickly, while D gear takes a bit longer. When the accelerator is pressed, the driving experience with S gear is more direct, whereas D gear feels relatively smoother. 2. S gear consumes more fuel than D gear: While pursuing speed advantages, S gear also maximizes power output. Long-term use of S gear increases fuel consumption compared to D gear due to higher air intake. However, the driving pleasure of S gear cannot be experienced in D gear. 3. S gear provides more power when climbing hills: When climbing a hill without switching to S gear, the car's engine may produce some unusual noises. This occurs because the engine cannot provide sufficient power at low RPMs, so using S gear is recommended for uphill driving.

How to Adjust the Rearview Mirror of the Teana?

Teana has an adjustment button on the door panel. The toggle adjustment lever is located at the upper right of the door, and you can adjust the rearview mirror by toggling this lever. Rearview mirrors can be classified into two types based on their adjustment methods: external adjustment and internal adjustment. 1. External adjustment involves manually adjusting the position of the mirror frame or mirror surface while the vehicle is parked to achieve the desired viewing angle. This method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, making it difficult to complete conveniently in one go. The driver needs to reach out of the window to adjust the mirror while seated, which is inconvenient during driving or rainy conditions. Generally, large vehicles, trucks, and low-end buses adopt this external adjustment method to reduce costs. 2. Internal adjustment allows the driver to adjust the rearview mirror while driving, providing more convenient conditions for observing the rear view. Most mid-range and high-end cars use internal adjustment. This method is further divided into manual adjustment (using a wire cable transmission or a handle) and electric adjustment.
