How to Make Daytime Running Lights Flash in a Wave Pattern?

Daytime running lights cannot flash in a wave pattern. Daytime running lights are designed to indicate the presence of a vehicle to oncoming traffic during daylight hours. They are installed on both sides of the front end and serve the following purposes: 1. To enhance the vehicle's visibility; 2. To reduce the likelihood of accidents and lower the probability of fatal crashes. The method to turn on daytime running lights is as follows: 1. Push the light lever upward and hold it; 2. Pull the lever toward you and hold it, while simultaneously pressing the start button with your right hand; 3. Keep the dashboard illuminated for about 3 to 5 seconds until you hear a beep, then release your hand—the daytime running lights will be successfully activated. Precautions for installing daytime running lights include: 1. Choose an installation location that avoids high-temperature areas and places prone to water accumulation; 2. During wiring installation, ensure that the harness connector and the daytime running light connector are correctly aligned to avoid incorrect connections.

What is the Chinese equivalent of Euro III standard?

Euro III emission standard is equivalent to China's National III emission standard. Here is an extended introduction: 1. Introduction to National III: Most private cars manufactured between 2005-2010 were set with Euro III or National III emission standards for tailpipe emissions. The National III standard mainly applies to light gasoline and diesel vehicles under 3.5 tons, equivalent to the Euro III standard. Its nationwide implementation date was July 1, 2007. 2. Introduction to Euro III: The EU's emission standards are implemented through the emission regulations of the European Economic Commission (ECE) and the emission directives of the European Economic Community (EEC), where EEC is now the EU (European Union). ECE emission regulations are voluntarily recognized by participating countries, while EEC/EU emission directives are mandatory for member states.

What do the manufacturer's suggested retail price and the on-the-road price mean when buying a car?

Here is the introduction to the manufacturer's suggested retail price and the on-the-road price when buying a car: 1. On-the-road price: The on-the-road price refers to the total cost required to purchase a car. On-the-road price = ex-factory price + purchase tax (generally ex-factory price x 8.55%) + car insurance cost + vehicle and vessel usage tax (approximately 400 RMB, a tax levied since 2007) + inspection and license plate fee. Simplified, it is ex-factory price + ex-factory price x 8.55% + 4200. 2. Manufacturer's suggested retail price: The current vehicle sales model involves many steps. Generally, cars are sold through 4S stores or agents rather than directly from the manufacturer to consumers. However, the manufacturer provides a suggested retail price for the car, which is derived from a comprehensive analysis of the car's cost, positioning, etc. This is the manufacturer's suggested retail price often seen, which is the price announced by the manufacturer when a new car is launched.

Where to install the ETC?

The installation position for small car ETC is generally in the upper middle part of the front windshield, while for large vehicles such as trucks and buses, it is installed in the lower middle part. The suitable installation position should be no lower than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 to 90 degrees. For vehicles with factory-installed or aftermarket explosion-proof film, which may affect microwave communication signal transmission, the ETC should be installed in the microwave window strip. ETC stands for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply for ETC, you need to provide the original and photocopies of the vehicle owner's valid ID and vehicle registration certificate. If the application is not processed by the owner, the agent's valid ID is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle registration certificate should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. A bank card for deducting highway tolls is also required, and the vehicle must be registered under the name of an individual aged between 18 and 60. Here are some precautions for installing ETC: Do not block the driver's view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a steeply inclined windshield, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. If ETC is installed without considering this, it may increase the driver's blind spots. Installing it behind the rearview mirror on the right side can help avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement because it has a solar panel on the back for self-charging. Therefore, during installation, avoid the black areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Do not remove it arbitrarily once installed: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever connected to a switch. After installation, the windshield will press the anti-removal lever in. If the tag is removed arbitrarily, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. In such cases, you will need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This mechanism is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. When using ETC, note the following: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To avoid paying for the vehicle in front due to its faulty ETC device, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle ahead. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 kilometers per hour; driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information and cause payment failure. If using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance will also lead to payment failure.

What Kind of Xenon Lights Should You Choose for Your Car?

For your car, you should choose xenon lights that can reach a stable luminous flux of 25% within 1 second of startup. Here is some knowledge about xenon lights: 1. Hot start time: After the xenon headlights are turned off when operating stably within 15 seconds, some boosters can allow the bulb to reach 80% of maximum brightness within 1 second of being powered on, with almost no noticeable delay. However, other boosters may require a delay of 3-5 seconds for the bulb to reach 80% of maximum brightness. Naturally, boosters with shorter delays are of better quality. When both the booster and bulb are functioning normally, they can handle repeated on-off actions. 2. Types of boosters: The boosters available on the market generally come in two types—dual-unit and single-unit. It's easy to see that single-unit boosters are more convenient to install compared to dual-unit ones.

What is Kinergy tire?

Kinergy is a brand under Hankook. The tire size is 235/65R17. Hankook was established in 1941 as Korea's first tire company. Hankook supplies radial tires for light trucks, SUVs, trucks, buses, and special racing vehicles. With five R&D centers worldwide and three regional headquarters (China, Europe, and the Americas), Hankook tires are distributed in 180 countries globally. When using Kinergy tires in daily driving, pay attention to the following points: Regularly inspect the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to driving wear, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread pattern wears flat, it will lose its drainage and anti-skid functions, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Small cracks may also pose hidden dangers of tire blowouts during high-speed driving. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles lodged in the grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that may deteriorate rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool down overheated tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires are prone to overheating, and tire pressure may increase. In such cases, park to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this may cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the road surface.
