Dash cam time setting method: Different brands and models of dash cams have different setting methods. Usually, you just need to click the menu on the dash cam, find the settings option, select the date and time settings, and adjust the time to the current accurate time. A dash cam is an instrument that records images, sounds, and other related information during vehicle travel. After installing a dash cam, it can record the entire driving process of the car, including video images and sounds, which can provide evidence for traffic accidents. It can also serve as a parking monitor in daily use. After installing a dash cam, the video data should not be edited. If edited, it may not be able to provide assistance in the event of a liability accident.

I just helped a friend adjust the time on their dashcam a few days ago, and found that the basic operations are quite similar. First, locate the menu button on the side of the dashcam, press and hold it for 3 seconds to enter the system settings. At this point, the time and date options will appear on the screen, and you can use the directional keys to adjust to the correct numbers. Be aware that some models differentiate between 12-hour and 24-hour formats—selecting the wrong one will cause the time to jump around. Remember to save and exit after adjusting, otherwise, it will revert to the default settings when powered off. I recommend choosing a model with GPS automatic time synchronization; just drive around the block to sync with satellite time, which is especially convenient. If you really can't figure it out, check the manual, as the setup paths can vary significantly between brands.

The regular maintenance schedule in the Haval F7 manual states that maintenance should be performed every six months or every 5,000 kilometers. If the driving environment is harsh, maintenance can be performed earlier.

How Does Light Illumination Change When Encountering Curves?

Below is an introduction to how headlight illumination changes when encountering curves ahead during nighttime driving: Light changes: The illumination will shift from the center of the road to the side; on straight roads, the light distance remains unchanged; when encountering a typical curve, the light follows the turn, moving from the center to the side. When going uphill: The light moves from high to low as the vehicle ascends or descends; when encountering sharp curves or large potholes, the light may leave the road surface due to vehicle jolts. When approaching an intersection: Reduce speed 50 to 100 meters before the intersection, switch from high beam to low beam, and activate the turn signal to indicate the direction of travel. When an oncoming vehicle is within 150 meters: Switch from high beam to low beam to avoid obstructing the other driver's vision.
