I operate the dashboard settings on my Lavida XT using the control buttons on the right side of the steering wheel, which is very convenient. First, press the menu button to enter the settings interface, then use the up and down arrow keys to browse options such as brightness adjustment, unit settings, language selection, and trip information display. I prefer to set the brightness to a moderate level—too bright at night can be glaring, while too dim during the day makes it hard to see road conditions, affecting safety. For fuel consumption, I usually set it to display average fuel consumption to monitor driving costs, and I can also reset the trip meter to record data for different road sections. Don’t rush to adjust while driving; wait until you’re safely parked by the roadside. I recommend experimenting a bit—the settings menu is quite intuitive. It might be a bit confusing at first, but after a few tries, you’ll get the hang of it. The user manual also includes illustrated instructions, making it easy to learn. Personally, I adjust the brightness once a week to adapt to changing light conditions, ensuring a comfortable driving experience.

The dashboard settings of the Lavida hatchback are based on the vehicle's computer system and can be controlled via the steering wheel buttons. I usually press the settings button to enter the main menu, then scroll the wheel to adjust the brightness to a comfortable mid-level that doesn't strain the eyes, and change the unit to kilometers per hour for familiarity. It also allows switching display information like instant fuel consumption, which helps cultivate fuel-saving habits. The circuit design is simple and less prone to errors—just take it step by step without rushing. During setup, the screen provides prompt text; simply follow along. I regularly check to avoid misjudging speed due to brightness changes, ensuring driving safety. Beginners should practice in a parked state to avoid distractions while driving. The Lavida hatchback's interface is quite user-friendly, with fast overall response and no worries about lag. Combined with stable battery performance, settings take effect immediately, making it very practical.

Setting up the Lavida's dashboard is quite simple, all done via the steering wheel buttons. Press the menu button to select items, such as adjusting brightness, then use the scroll wheel to turn up or down until the light and dark levels are suitable. You can also set units (metric or imperial), language, display content, and trip reset. I usually set it brighter at night and dimmer during the day. It only takes a few steps to get the hang of it—just try a few more times to memorize the positions, and driving will become smoother.

What Needs to Be Replaced During the First Maintenance?

The first maintenance of a car requires the replacement of engine oil and the oil filter. In addition, it includes checking the vehicle's electrical equipment, lights, horn, and wipers, inspecting the vehicle's shock absorption system, as well as the tire pressure and usage. More information about the first maintenance of a car is as follows: 1. The first maintenance has two indicators: time and mileage, whichever comes first. Exceeding either one will affect the warranty. According to the manufacturer's explicit regulations, the first maintenance is a free service provided by the 4S shop. If the first maintenance date is exceeded, it will be regarded as voluntarily giving up the right to the first maintenance. If the first maintenance is not performed, any future quality issues with the car will not be covered by the warranty. Therefore, it is reminded to all car owners not to miss the first maintenance deadline. When the first maintenance is approaching, it is recommended that the owner must make an appointment in advance by phone to avoid long waiting times. At this time, the owner is reminded to bring the relevant documents; 2. The first maintenance mileage varies for different brands of cars. The difference in the first maintenance mileage is due to the varying technical levels of different car manufacturers. New car engines have a break-in period, and cars of different makes, brands, or even models are equipped with engines of different technical levels. Some engines have better materials and higher precision, resulting in relatively less wear, while others have higher requirements for engine oil, thus leading to inconsistencies in maintenance time and mileage.

Why is there a gasoline smell inside the car?

There are several reasons for a gasoline smell inside the car: 1. Aging rubber pipes in the gasoline purification carbon canister. In older vehicles, rubber components in the engine compartment are prone to aging and leakage into the engine bay, requiring timely replacement of the rubber pipes; 2. Leakage at the gasoline pipe interface. The gasoline smell enters the car through the air conditioning system. This can be identified by opening the engine hood and observing a layer of oily residue on the surface, which requires tightening or repair; 3. Poor sealing after disassembling the gasoline pump. This can be caused by replacing the gasoline pump or failing to clean residual substances after disassembly; 4. Overfilling the fuel tank. If gasoline enters the pipes of the activated carbon canister system, it can cause the car to stall after refueling and eventually fail to start.
