The time on the Trumpchi GS4 instrument panel is automatic and does not require setting. For the luxury version, you can set the time by clicking into the settings, selecting the date, and then choosing the time to adjust it. The GAC Trumpchi GS4 is positioned as an "International New Generation SUV" and was officially launched on April 18, 2015. Below is an introduction to related content: 1. The instrument panel of the Trumpchi GS4 adopts a combination of traditional mechanical dials and a multifunctional LCD display. Compared to older models, it looks more streamlined, and the two mechanical dials feature additional blue light strips around the outer edges, which illuminate when powered on, creating an ambient lighting effect. The central display screen can show information such as tire pressure, tire temperature, fuel consumption, and driving range. 2. Beneath the surface of modern car instrument panels, various indicator or warning lights are installed, such as coolant level warning lights, fuel level indicators, washer fluid level indicators, charging indicators, high/low beam indicators, transmission gear indicators, ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) indicators, traction control indicators, and SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) warning lights.

From a professional perspective, adjusting the dashboard clock on the GAC Trumpchi GS4 is a simple trick and not difficult to operate. First, start the car's ignition to ensure the engine is running properly—this is crucial because settings may not save in the shutdown state. Then, locate the menu button on the right side of the steering wheel, usually marked with a "Menu" or similar icon, and press it to enter the system menu. Next, use the up and down buttons on the steering wheel to scroll through the options until you find "Settings" or "System Settings." Enter this menu to access the clock adjustment function. Once selected, use the left and right buttons to adjust the hours and minutes, then press the confirm button to save and exit. If the screen doesn’t respond during the process, it might be due to low battery voltage or button contact issues—checking the battery health can prevent minor troubles. Accurate settings improve parking fee calculations and navigation precision, making this a practical feature. Regular maintenance of the vehicle's electrical system helps these settings last longer.

As an average car owner, I also struggled with setting the time when I first bought my Trumpchi GS4. The method is actually straightforward: First, sit in the driver's seat, start the car, but don't rush to drive. On the right side of the steering wheel, there's a small button labeled 'Menu' or with a gear icon—press it. A list will pop up on the screen; scroll down to find the system settings option, which includes the date and time menu. Select the time adjustment section, and you can use the directional buttons to adjust the hours and minutes up, down, left, or right. Press the confirm button to lock in the settings. Once done, exit back to the main screen. Don’t panic—just follow the steps one by one, and if you make a mistake, you can always try again. This feature is crucial for daily driving, like knowing the exact time when you're running late, so mastering it makes driving more hassle-free. Also, keep the car buttons clean to avoid affecting usability—dusting them off is simple.

I've driven the Trumpchi GS4 for several years and would like to share some tips on adjusting the instrument panel time. First, start the vehicle, then press the menu entry button on the right-hand steering wheel control. Navigate to the settings interface and select clock adjustment to make changes. Remember to save before exiting. A quick tip: for newer models with touchscreens, simply tapping the clock icon on the screen is faster. Setting the correct time helps avoid getting lost when using navigation, which is particularly useful for long trips. To prevent time reset issues, check if the battery is aging. Overall, the GS4's design is quite user-friendly without complicated technical barriers.

What is the wading depth of the Trumpchi GS4?

The wading depth of the Trumpchi GS4 is 400mm. The wading depth of the Trumpchi GS4 is determined by the height of the vehicle's chassis, which is the ground clearance listed in the model's parameter configuration table. Generally, the greater the ground clearance, the higher the chassis, and the higher the safety factor when passing through waterlogged roads. Therefore, in terms of safe wading depth, off-road vehicles and SUVs have obvious advantages. However, for most compact cars and small cars with low chassis, the position of the vehicle's air intake should be used as a benchmark when passing through waterlogged roads. If the air intake of the Trumpchi GS4 is below the water level during wading, water will be sucked into the engine's cylinders. Since water cannot be compressed like air, it will cause severe damage to the engine's mechanical structure (connecting rods, pistons, crankshaft, etc.). Therefore, the wading depth must not exceed the height of the engine's air intake. The height of the engine's air intake, and thus the maximum wading depth, can also be increased by installing a snorkel. If wading is unavoidable, the following safe and correct operations should be performed: Before the vehicle enters the water, the auto start-stop function must be turned off to prevent the vehicle from automatically restarting after stalling in the water, which could cause severe damage if water enters the engine. Judge the underwater road conditions based on the passage of the vehicle ahead and choose a suitable entry point. Observe the path taken by other vehicles and follow their tracks at low speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration. On roads prone to water accumulation, observe warning water level markers, trees, and other reference points such as the wheels and doors of other vehicles to estimate the water depth before deciding whether to proceed. Know your vehicle's safe wading depth. If the water depth exceeds half the height of the tires or the engine's air intake, do not enter the water recklessly; choose an alternative route instead.

However, for most compact and small cars with low chassis, the position of the vehicle's air intake should be used as a benchmark when passing through waterlogged roads. If the air intake is below the water level when the Magotan is wading, water will be sucked into the engine's cylinders. Since water cannot be compressed like air, it will cause severe damage to the engine's mechanical components (such as connecting rods, pistons, crankshafts, etc.). Therefore, the wading depth should not exceed the height of the engine's air intake. The height of the air intake, and thus the maximum wading depth, can also be increased by installing a snorkel. If wading is unavoidable, the following safe and correct operations should be performed: Before the vehicle enters the water, the auto start-stop function must be turned off to prevent the engine from automatically restarting after stalling in the water, which could cause severe damage due to water ingestion. Based on the passage of vehicles ahead, assess the underwater road conditions and choose an appropriate entry point.

How to Check for Positive Short Circuit in Car Electrical Circuits?

The car's electrical circuit has many branches, each with its own fuse. A short circuit will cause a positive to ground (negative) connection, which can often be observed with the naked eye. To check with a multimeter, measure the resistance between the top end and the fuse. Insert one end of the test light into the battery's positive terminal and the other end between the top end and the fuse. In the circuit, if the current does not flow through the electrical appliance but directly connects the two poles of the power supply, it is called a short circuit (Short-circuit).

Is Insurance Valid for Unlicensed Vehicles?

Insurance for unlicensed vehicles is valid, as there is no direct correlation between license plates and insurance validity. Insurance companies typically consider that motor vehicles should be legally licensed before being driven on the road, as explicitly stipulated in the commercial third-party liability insurance and motor vehicle loss insurance clauses. Therefore, in the case of unlicensed new vehicles involved in accidents, if the insured vehicle is not displaying a license plate at the time of the incident, the insurance company will not be liable for compensation. License plates, commonly referred to as vehicle tags, are plates affixed to the front and rear of a vehicle, usually made of aluminum, sheet metal, plastic, or paper, displaying the vehicle's registration number, registration region, or other relevant information.
