When preparing to drive, start the car by pressing the brake pedal, ensure the gear lever is in the D (Drive) position of the automatic transmission, fully release the handbrake, and then gently press the accelerator. When ascending an incline, shift to 3rd or 2nd gear to obtain greater power output. For parking on a slope or for extended periods, use the P (Park) position to ensure the vehicle is completely stationary. Note: Engage the P position only after turning off the engine. Always ensure correct operation. Since the D (Drive) position in an automatic transmission does not provide engine braking, avoid keeping the car in D position continuously.

What to Do If the Dash Cam Blocks the Rearview Mirror?

If the dash cam blocks the rearview mirror, you can switch to a camera-style model, which is usually installed on the windshield in front of the rearview mirror and won't obstruct it. The dash cam should be installed in the upper central position of the front windshield, near the interior rearview mirror. The placement should not only be centered but also utilize the small gap behind the right side of the rearview mirror for installation. Then, adjust the angle from the driver's seat. Dash cams are mainly divided into two categories: portable dash cams and aftermarket in-dash DVD dash cams. Portable dash cams can be further categorized into rearview mirror dash cams and data dash cams.

What are the functions of front windshield film?

The functions of front windshield film include: 1. Sun protection and UV protection: The front windshield has a large heating area and is exposed to more UV radiation. The film can effectively block UV rays, protecting the health of the driver and passengers; 2. Heat insulation: The film can block a portion of the heat; 3. Anti-glare: During the day, the bright sunlight can cause glare, and at night, the strong headlights of oncoming vehicles can also produce dazzling glare, especially when driving on rainy nights when the lights are more chaotic. Front windshield film can effectively reduce this glaring light; 4. Anti-explosion function: Since the front windshield is made of tempered safety glass, if the glass shatters, the film can prevent the fragments from flying, thereby protecting the safety of the driver.
