Methods for handling airbag malfunction: Continue driving the vehicle steadily to the nearest 4S shop or repair shop for inspection. If the airbag warning light continues to flash or remains steadily lit for 6 to 8 seconds after starting the vehicle, or if the airbag warning light flashes for 5 seconds and then stays lit while the vehicle is in operation, these two situations indicate that the airbag may be malfunctioning. The airbag system generally consists of sensors, a microprocessor, an electronic control unit, an airbag cover and support ring, the airbag itself, and an airbag module, among other components. The reason the airbag warning light is on may be due to damage to one of these components. The airbag is a type of vehicle occupant restraint system, with the airbag designed to inflate quickly during a collision and then deflate rapidly, aiming to provide a soft cushion and restraint for the occupants in the event of a collision.

Where is the Mercedes-Benz E mirror heating button?

Turning on the rear windshield heating also activates the exterior mirror heating. The button in front of the seat heating on the driver's door panel is used to switch control of the front passenger seat. Here are more related introductions: 1. Mirror heating: Mirror heating can help the driver observe the road conditions at the rear of the vehicle while driving. If the mirror becomes blurred and unclear, it can affect the driver's safety. 2. How heated mirrors work: The principle of heated mirrors is actually very simple, and the cost is not very high. It involves installing an electric heating element (heating film) inside the mirror lenses on both sides. In rainy or snowy weather, when the driver turns on the mirror heating function, the heating element quickly heats up to a fixed temperature within a few minutes, usually between 35-60 degrees Celsius, thereby heating the mirror to remove fog and frost.
