How to Open the Bonnet of the Binyue?
3 Answers
There is an unlock button in the control area on the left side of the steering wheel. Press it to pop up the bonnet, then reach in and pull the latch to open it. Below are the specific functions of the bonnet: 1. Airflow guidance. For objects moving at high speed in the air, the air resistance and turbulence generated by the airflow around the moving object directly affect its trajectory and speed. The shape of the bonnet can effectively adjust the direction of the airflow relative to the car's movement and the resistance force, reducing the impact of airflow on the car. 2. Protection for the engine and surrounding components. Under the bonnet are crucial parts of the car, including the engine, electrical circuits, fuel lines, braking system, and transmission system, all of which are vital to the vehicle. By enhancing the strength and structure of the bonnet, it can effectively prevent adverse effects such as impacts, corrosion, rain, and electrical interference, ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle. 3. Aesthetics. The exterior design of a vehicle is a direct reflection of its value. As an important part of the overall appearance, the bonnet plays a critical role in enhancing visual appeal and embodying the concept of the entire car. 4. Assisting driver visibility. During driving, the driver's ability to correctly judge road conditions and the situation ahead heavily relies on the reflection of natural light and the view ahead. The shape of the bonnet can effectively adjust the direction and form of reflected light, thereby reducing the impact of light on the driver.
Opening the Bonnet of the Bin Yue is actually quite simple. I’ve been driving this car for two years and handle the maintenance myself every time. First, sit in the driver’s seat and locate a small lever below the left side of the steering wheel, which has a bonnet icon or is labeled in English. Gently pull it, and you’ll hear a click, indicating the bonnet is unlocked. Then, step out and walk to the front of the car. There’s a safety latch slightly to the left of the center of the bonnet, usually yellow or red. Reach in and pull it upward or move it sideways, and the bonnet will fully open. Beginners should ensure the car is parked and turned off, avoiding slopes. If the latch gets rusty, a bit of lubricant will fix it. Regularly check the lever for looseness to prevent it from failing when needed. My advice is to clean the engine bay every six months and polish the latch area to keep it functioning smoothly.
When driving my Bin Yue, I noticed the hood release button is located at the lower left corner of the cabin. The pull handle feels like a small lever - a gentle tug makes the front end pop up slightly. Then quickly move to the front of the car where there's a hidden metal hook beneath the center of the hood. You need to locate it precisely by reaching through the middle gap to flip it open before lifting the hood. Honestly, the position is quite concealed - first-timers might struggle to find it. Remember to wear gloves to avoid scratching your hands. The design is quite clever - the lever connects via cable to control the front locking mechanism. So if the lever gets stuck, don't force it; first check the cable or apply some lubricant. I regularly clean engine compartment dust to extend component lifespan, because safe driving is what truly matters.
