To adjust the date on a Nissan Sylphy, follow these steps: 1. Power on the vehicle, and you will find buttons at the lower left and right corners of the instrument panel; 2. The left button is the selection key—press it once to adjust the hour; 3. The right button is the adjustment key—press it once to increase the value; 4. Press the left button on the instrument panel twice to adjust the minutes. After adjustment, the process is complete. The Nissan Sylphy has a body size of 4631mm in length, 1760mm in width, and 1503mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm.

I've been driving a Sylphy for almost three years and have encountered the date adjustment issue several times. First, power on the car without starting the engine so the dashboard becomes operational. Then look at the row of buttons on the left side of the steering wheel, find the menu button and press it - this will bring up the settings interface on the small central dashboard screen. Use the up/down arrow keys to navigate to the 'Settings' option, press confirm to enter, then locate 'Time & Date'. Here you'll find the date settings where left/right keys switch between year/month/day and up/down keys adjust the specific numbers. Remember to save after adjustment, then press the back button to exit. When I adjusted the date before Spring Festival last time, I found it kept reverting - turned out to be poor battery contact causing memory failure, so it's best to observe for a couple days after adjustment. Also, never do this while driving as it's dangerously distracting - find a parking lot to operate slowly and safely.

What does it mean when the EPB is automatically applied?

The meaning of 'EPB is automatically applied' is that the vehicle's automatic parking system has been activated. Automatic parking is a function that automatically applies the brakes. After activating the automatic parking mode, if the vehicle is in D gear but does not move for a period of time, the electronic parking brake will engage on its own. Below is a detailed introduction: Working Principle: The electronic parking brake (EPB) is a technology that achieves parking braking through electronic control. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, both relying on the friction generated between the brake disc and brake pads to control parking braking. The control method has changed from the traditional mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. Advantages: The automatic parking function can automatically activate four-wheel braking when the vehicle is stopped at a traffic light or on a slope. Even in D gear or N gear, there is no need to keep the foot on the brake or use the handbrake, as the car remains stationary. To release the stationary state, simply lightly press the accelerator to disengage the brake, thereby improving the vehicle's safety performance.

What are the reasons why the automatic parking cannot continue to be used?

The reasons why the automatic parking cannot continue to be used include abnormal noise from the parking brake and the parking brake lever not being able to lock in place. Abnormal noise from the parking brake: Stop the vehicle and inspect it. Manually move the parking brake to check if the fixing screws are loose, the lever is deformed, the fixing pins are loose, or the lever spring is damaged. If any of these issues are found, they should be repaired and adjusted promptly. If no problems are found, check whether the dust shield is colliding with the brake drum due to deformation or improper fixation. Parking brake lever not locking in place: When using the parking brake to stop the vehicle, pull the parking brake lever to the braking position and release it, noting that it cannot stay in the braking position. During inspection, first press and release the lever head, then grip and release the lever handle, moving it up and down to test whether the lever is bent, stuck, or if the spring is broken.

What does it mean when the vehicle body touches the parking space boundary line while driving?

When the vehicle body touches the parking space boundary line while driving, it refers to the phenomenon of the wheels crossing the line during the parking maneuver, which results in test failure and requires retaking the exam. Below is more information about parallel parking: 1. Introduction: Parallel parking is one of the test items in the second subject of the driver's license exam. It has become increasingly common in urban areas, where many streets have designated parking spaces marked along the sides, known as 'parallel parking spaces.' 2. Requirements: The driver must maneuver the vehicle into the right-side parking space without the wheels touching the lane boundary lines or the parking space boundary lines. 3. Test criteria: If the vehicle body extends beyond the line after parking, 100 points are deducted. If the wheels touch the lane boundary lines during the maneuver, 10 points are deducted. Failure to park within the space results in a 100-point deduction. Not activating the left turn signal when starting results in a 10-point deduction. Stopping midway results in a 100-point deduction.

Can an automatic parking system be retrofitted?

An automatic parking system can be retrofitted, but if it is not an original factory option, it is not recommended to install it, as modifications may lead to the manufacturer and 4S stores refusing warranty coverage. Automatic parking refers to the car parking itself without manual control. Below are the specific details: Automatic Parking: Automatic parking is an automated driving technology in cars equipped with an automatic parking system, enabling the car to park itself or park unmanned into a designated parking space. It helps drivers park the car faster, automatically, and more accurately. Precautions for Using the Automatic Parking Function: When using the automatic parking feature, keep your foot on the brake pedal to prevent sudden loss of control or failure to recognize obstacles. On icy or snowy roads, the automatic parking system may fail to recognize the parking lines on the ground, making automatic parking impossible. In such cases, manual parking is required. If parking in areas with heavy pedestrian traffic, it is not recommended to use automatic parking.
