Here are the methods to adjust the rearview mirror of a Volkswagen: 1. When adjusting the rearview mirror angle, you can use the electric buttons inside the car, which are located on the left side of the steering wheel, to adjust the left and right rearview mirrors. 2. Adjust the center rearview mirror. Adjust the left and right positions so that the left edge of the mirror just cuts to the right ear of your reflection in the mirror, and the up and down positions should place the distant horizon in the center of the mirror. Key points for adjusting the center rearview mirror: place the horizon in the middle and your ear on the left. Position the distant horizon along the center line of the center rearview mirror, then move it left or right so that the image of your right ear is just at the left edge of the mirror. 3. Adjust the left rearview mirror. For the up and down positions, place the distant horizon in the center, and for the left and right positions, adjust so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the mirror's area. Key points for adjusting the left rearview mirror: place the horizon along the center line of the mirror, then adjust the edge of the car body to occupy 1/4 of the mirror's reflection. 4. Adjust the right rearview mirror. Since the driver's seat is on the left, it is not easy for the driver to grasp the situation on the right side of the car. Additionally, due to the need for roadside parking sometimes, the right rearview mirror should leave a larger ground area when adjusting the up and down positions, about 2/3 of the mirror. As for the left and right positions, adjust so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the mirror's area. Key points for adjusting the right rearview mirror: place the horizon at the 2/3 position of the mirror, then adjust the edge of the car body to occupy 1/4 of the mirror's reflection.

Release the Clutch or Brake First After Braking?

After braking, you should release the brake before the clutch. There are three types of braking systems: 1. Foot brake: The most commonly used brake while driving is operated by the foot, hence also called the foot brake. When the driver presses the brake pedal, the braking force is transmitted mechanically or hydraulically to the wheel's braking device, creating friction. 2. Parking brake: Also known as the handbrake, it prevents the vehicle from slipping when parked. There are generally two types: the intermediate brake mounted on the driveshaft and the direct rear-wheel brake control. 3. Anti-lock braking system (ABS): When driving on slippery or icy low-friction roads, excessive braking can cause the wheels to lock up and lose traction, leading to a loss of steering control. To enable effective directional control on such hazardous surfaces, the ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) was developed.
