Car refrigerators cool through semiconductor refrigeration. Here is extended knowledge about car refrigerators: 1. Function introduction: Car mini refrigerators cool through semiconductor refrigeration. They are small in size, lightweight, noiseless, easy to carry, can lower the temperature to about -4 degrees Celsius, and are generally only suitable for refrigeration. If the power supply is reversed, they can heat. The cooling effect of car refrigerators is usually not obvious, and the cooling speed is slow. They are typically used to store items that have been refrigerated or frozen in household refrigerators. 2. Types: (1) Insulated box: Made with an insulated material shell, it uses an energy storage box for cooling and heating to maintain the temperature of items. (2) Semiconductor car refrigerator: Cools through electronic chips. It uses special semiconductor materials to form a P-N junction, creating a thermocouple pair and generating the Peltier effect. This is a new refrigeration method that cools through direct current. The cooling temperature range is -5 to 65 degrees. (3) Compressor car refrigerator: The compressor is the traditional technology of conventional refrigerators, with a low cooling temperature of -18 to 10 degrees. It has high cooling efficiency and a large size, making it the mainstream direction for the future development of car refrigerators. (4) Electronic ice-making refrigerator: Based on dual electronic synchronous refrigeration and a special internal body structure, it achieves electronic ice-making. It can reach -3 degrees for cooling and 65 degrees for heating, with adjustable cooling temperatures.

How to start a Volkswagen Tiguan with a dead battery?

Push-starting is the most familiar and effective emergency starting method, but it should not be used frequently. Use a tow rope of appropriate length and secure both ends firmly. Before towing, the drivers of both vehicles should agree on communication signals. Bring the two vehicles close enough until the jumper cables can connect the positive and negative terminals of both batteries.

What is the turning radius of a 4-meter-wide fire lane?

Generally, the minimum width is 4 meters, and the minimum turning radius is basically 9m. Additional information: Detailed introduction: The turning radius of a fire lane is calculated based on the fire trucks. The turning radius of a standard fire truck is 9m, while that of an aerial ladder truck is 12m. Some special vehicles have a turning radius of 16-20m. Turning tips: Develop the habit of slowing down when turning (especially when intersecting with non-motorized lanes or sidewalks). Observe the conditions of non-motorized lanes and sidewalks, and pass through slowly. This applies both in urban and suburban areas. Actively yield to electric bikes on non-motorized lanes and pedestrians on sidewalks. When making a right turn in urban areas, give way to pedestrians and electric bikes on crosswalks, and proceed slowly only after confirming there will be no accidents.

How to turn on/off the rear wiper of Volkswagen Touran?

Pull the lever backward to activate the front wiper washer fluid spray. The default position is the intermittent mode, where the wipers automatically operate when the vehicle detects increased rainfall. Push the lever upward to gradually increase the wiper operation frequency. The OFF position is the switch-off mode. Turn to this position when not using the wipers. When the lever is moved to this position, it will automatically spring back, and the wiper will operate once.

How Many Seats Does a Sedan Have?

Generally, a sedan has five seats, while some luxury sedans have four seats. The front row of a sedan can accommodate two people, and the rear row usually seats three. However, the middle seat in the rear row is less comfortable and is more suitable for short trips. Sedans can be categorized by length as follows: 1. Microcars: These typically refer to models with a wheelbase under 2400mm, such as the Chery QQ3, Chang'an Benben, and Geely Panda, which have a wheelbase of around 2340mm. Smaller examples include the Smart Fortwo, with a wheelbase of only 1867mm. 2. Subcompact cars: These usually refer to models with a wheelbase between 2400-2550mm, such as the Honda Fit, Toyota Vios, and Ford Fiesta. 3. Compact cars: These typically refer to models with a wheelbase between 2550-2700mm. This category represents the mainstream of family sedans, including models like the Volkswagen Sagitar, Toyota Corolla, Ford Focus, and Honda Civic. 4. Mid-size cars: These usually refer to models with a wheelbase between 2700-2850mm. This category often serves both family and business purposes, with examples like the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Volkswagen Magotan, and Mazda6 Atenza.
