Method to activate the lock sound on Lavida: 1. Press the brake pedal of the Lavida, place the gear lever in P position, release the brake pedal, and press the one-touch start button of the SAIC Lavida twice consecutively, then close all four doors. 2. Hold down the lock button on the driver's door for more than 10 seconds to complete the setting for the lock horn sound. 3. Extension: The horn is the audio signal device of the car. During driving, the driver can emit necessary audio signals as needed and regulations to warn pedestrians and attract the attention of other vehicles, ensuring traffic safety. It is also used for urging and transmitting signals.

I've been driving a 2017 Lavida for several years, and the locking confirmation sound is very practical. Normally in parking lots or crowded places, I use the remote key fob: simultaneously press and hold both the lock and unlock buttons without releasing, maintain for about 3 to 5 seconds until you hear a confirmation beep indicating the function is activated. If this method doesn't work, try entering the vehicle, turning on the ignition (without starting the engine), then using the steering wheel buttons to access the settings menu. Select either the sound options or vehicle security settings to find and enable the confirmation tone switch. In some cases, a dealership may need to activate it through computer programming - I recommend checking your owner's manual for specific procedures. Once enabled, you'll hear an audible confirmation every time you lock the vehicle, which helps verify security in noisy environments. This feature might be disabled by default, so regular checks ensure your anti-theft system remains reliable - especially useful when traveling or returning late at night, as it reduces the risk of accidental lockouts.

As a car enthusiast, let me detail how to enable the lock sound on the 2017 Lavida: The key is using the remote key fob—press and hold both the lock and unlock buttons simultaneously for 3-5 seconds until you hear a response. Alternatively, access the vehicle settings menu to locate and modify the sound control options. If there's no response, it might be due to unsupported software versions or battery issues, requiring professional tools for initialization. Enabling the sound enhances security monitoring, preventing car thieves from exploiting vulnerabilities, especially in dimly lit garages. After activating the feature, test it several times to ensure proper functionality. During regular maintenance, remind technicians to check system settings for performance optimization.

Can You Still Drive When the Oil Life is 0?

When the oil life reaches 0, it is not recommended to continue driving. Here is some extended information about oil life: 1. The vehicle's computer alerts you about oil life based on preset mileage. 2. If the oil life displays as 0, check whether it is due to a data error caused by not resetting after an oil change or prolonged disuse of the oil. 3. Engine oil has a shelf life and cannot be used indefinitely. The shelf life of oil depends on its condition. Unopened engine oil can last up to five years; leftover oil after a car service, being opened, has a shortened shelf life of about one year; oil already poured into the engine has the shortest shelf life, approximately six months. 4. While checking the car's oil, you can use an oil inspection filter paper to test if the oil has deteriorated. By dripping oil onto the filter paper, three important ring-shaped areas can be observed: the deposit ring, the diffusion ring, and the outer oil ring, which indicate the oil's contamination level, the dispersing ability of additives against contaminants, and the oil's oxidation level.

What are the causes of brake noise after vehicle startup?

Vehicle startup after the brake noise causes are: 1, too slow to release the brake caused; 2, the new replacement of the brake pads running-in is not in place; 3, sand particles into the middle of the brake pads and brake discs; 4, the brake disc fixing screws are lost or damaged; 5, the brake system failure. The brake maintenance methods are: 1, high temperature protection, to prevent the brake system corrosion, to prevent the brake pads due to high temperature surface bite, to eliminate the brake pads scream; 2, regular replacement of brake oil; 3, clean the brake discs, brake drums and any parts of the oil stains, dirt and friction dust, to maintain the brake disc heat dissipation good; 4, regular inspection of the thickness of the brake pads or brake shoes.

What Causes the Brake Pedal to Be Hard to Press and the Car Unable to Start?

Here are the reasons why the brake pedal is hard to press and the car cannot start: 1. Vacuum booster pump leakage: If the car's vacuum booster pump leaks or malfunctions, the force required to press the brake pedal increases because the brake booster is not functioning properly. If it fails, the brake loses its power assistance, making it difficult to press. 2. Normal phenomenon: The inability to press the brake pedal after the engine is turned off is related to the brake booster pump. The brake booster pump only continuously generates vacuum when the engine is running. When the engine is off, it relies on the remaining vacuum assistance, but this will restore once the engine starts, and it is not a malfunction. Additional info: In driving, to prevent unexpected situations like sudden movement or rolling when starting the car, automatic transmission models are designed to require pressing the brake pedal to start. If the brake pedal is not pressed, the car will not start successfully. Moreover, the gear must be in P (Park) or N (Neutral) when starting an automatic transmission car. If started in N without the handbrake engaged, the car may roll. Therefore, the "press brake to start" design is entirely for safety considerations.

Is Brake Maintenance Necessary?

Brake maintenance is necessary. Only by timely servicing the components of the brake system and cleaning and lubricating the safety parts can the accuracy and safety of the brakes be ensured. Below are the phenomena that may occur if the brake system is not maintained for a long time: 1. Abnormal noise: The dust from normal wear of the brake pads accumulates near the brake calipers, and if not cleaned for a long time, it can cause abnormal noise; the sound-damping and vibration-damping plates of the brake pads, if not cleaned and lubricated for a long time, can also cause brake noise. 2. Abnormal wear: When driving on gravel roads, some particles may splash between the brake pads and brake discs, causing noise or abnormal wear. 3. Brake deviation: If the dust cover of the sliding shaft of the caliper is damaged, driving through water or mud puddles can cause the caliper shaft to rust and seize, the caliper to not return to position, reduced braking force, and brake deviation.
