E-Class vehicles are equipped with an automatic downward tilt function for the right rearview mirror when reversing, allowing for a better view of the lower right rear area (the left rearview mirror does not have this function). After shifting into R gear, the right rearview mirror button on the driver's side door usually lights up automatically (in red), at which point the right rearview mirror will tilt downward automatically.

Which Button to Press for Foggy Windows on Rainy Days?

Press the defogging button, turn on the air conditioning cooling (A/C) switch, set the temperature to the lowest, and activate the external circulation to remove fog. Both cold and warm air can be used to defog car windows, but warm air is slower than cold air. The most effective method is to use cold air, which blows dry cold air directly onto the glass, preventing water vapor from condensing on the glass and achieving defogging. The method for using warm air to defog is the same as using cold air, but it's important to note that warm air should not be used for defogging on rainy days, as it can initially worsen the fog. Always use external circulation when defogging car windows. The reason for foggy car windows: There is a certain temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car. If the temperatures inside and outside the car are different, the surface with the lower temperature will have a lower saturated vapor pressure than the surrounding environment, causing water vapor to gather on the glass surface and form tiny water droplets, resulting in fog.

How often should the Elantra's spark plugs be replaced?

The Elantra's spark plugs should be replaced every 100,000 kilometers. Methods to determine if spark plugs are damaged: Remove the spark plugs and observe them. The condition of the spark plugs can be judged based on their appearance and color. Normal spark plugs have an insulator skirt and electrodes that appear gray-white, gray-yellow, or light brown. A properly functioning spark plug has an insulator skirt that is reddish-brown, with an electrode gap between 0.8-0.9mm and no signs of electrode burning. If the spark plugs are covered in oil or deposits but are not damaged, they can continue to be used after cleaning off the oil and deposits. If the spark plugs are severely damaged, with signs such as blistering at the top, black streaks, cracks, or melted electrodes, the cause of the damage should be identified. After troubleshooting, replace the spark plugs with new ones. Additionally, if the spark plugs appear black as if smoked, it indicates that the wrong heat range was selected for the spark plugs, the air-fuel mixture is too rich, or there is oil leakage.

Does Applying Side Decals Affect Vehicle Inspection?

If the decals cover more than 10% of the vehicle's body area, you only need to file for a record at the relevant authorities, which will not affect the annual inspection. However, if you fail to file for a record, it will affect the annual inspection. Additional Information: 1. You need to file for a record at the local vehicle management office and then update the photo on your vehicle registration certificate. This will ensure that the annual inspection is not affected. If you do not file for a record, it will impact the inspection, and you may also face penalties from traffic police while driving. 2. The annual inspection includes a check of the vehicle's exterior. If the exterior has been modified, it may not pass the inspection. During the inspection, the vehicle must go through a testing line equipped with professional devices and staff. 3. The annual inspection involves checking the vehicle's exterior, exhaust emissions, lighting system, braking system, and chassis. Components such as brake lights, turn signals, and reverse lights are prone to malfunction.
