To turn off the headlights of a Mercedes-Benz: 1. Start the vehicle and locate the light adjustment button on the lower left side of the steering wheel; 2. Rotate the light button to 'auto' to turn off the headlights. Taking the 2021 Mercedes-Benz E260L as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5078mm, width 1860mm, height 1484mm, wheelbase 3079mm, and fuel tank capacity 66L. The 2021 Mercedes-Benz E260L features a multi-link independent suspension at the front and rear, and is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 184PS, maximum power of 135kW, and maximum torque of 280Nm.

Turning off the headlights on a Mercedes-Benz is actually quite simple. From my driving experience, the light control is located on the small lever to the left of the steering wheel—usually, you rotate or push it to operate. If you're using automatic mode, the headlights will turn on and off based on the ambient light, so there's no need to worry. But if you want to turn them off manually, just gently rotate the lever to the "0" position. Remember to check if you accidentally left the lights on during the day, wasting battery, or forgot to turn them off at night, which could drain the battery. Different models like the C-Class or S-Class have similar positions, making the operation very convenient. It's best not to leave the parking lights on for too long in a parking lot to avoid draining the battery. Make it a habit to confirm the lights are off before shutting off the engine—this protects the electrical system, saves money, and avoids frequent trips to the repair shop.

What is the power consumption per 100 kilometers for pure electric vehicles?

Different models of pure electric vehicles have varying power consumption. Taking the Tesla Model 3 as an example, its power consumption per 100 kilometers is 12.6KW. Advantages of electric vehicles: They do not emit harmful gases that pollute the atmosphere. Even when the power consumption is converted into emissions from power plants, pollutants other than sulfur and particulates are significantly reduced. Since most power plants are located far from densely populated cities, the harm to humans is minimized. Additionally, electricity can be generated from various primary energy sources such as coal, nuclear power, and hydro power, alleviating concerns about the depletion of petroleum resources. Requirements for pure electric vehicles: According to regulations from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China, starting from 2016, passenger vehicle manufacturers must provide an 8-year or 120,000-kilometer warranty for core components such as batteries and motors, which is sufficient to meet the needs of ordinary household vehicles.

Can I Pass the Driving Test If I Don't Practice Well?

As long as you take it seriously, there is a high probability of passing the driving test even if you don't practice well. Students who don't perform well during practice often struggle to fully grasp the driving techniques taught by their instructors. These students usually receive extra attention from the coach. Whenever the coach notices any mistakes, they will point them out bluntly or even scold the student directly. In fact, this approach is beneficial for the students. Reasons for poor practice performance include: Operational Thinking Errors: Acting before thinking. Subject 2 training is relatively standardized, with each exercise having predefined operational steps. After repeated practice, students develop a fixed sequence of actions in their minds. Through continuous training, they become very familiar with the operational steps of driving. Inconsistent Methods: During daily training, the coach will adjust observation points and operational techniques based on each student's habits and other influencing factors. For example, if a student drives slightly slower, the coach may suggest turning the steering wheel more slowly; if a student drives slightly faster, the coach may recommend turning the steering wheel more quickly. These are minor adjustments tailored to individual differences.

What to Do After Completing Straight-Line Driving?

After completing straight-line driving, steer the car toward the middle of the road. Do not accelerate hastily when entering; adjust the direction moderately left and right to straighten the vehicle body, then accelerate inward. If you feel the car drifting to the right halfway, gently press the steering wheel with your left thumb. Below are the key points about straight-line driving: Key Points of Straight-Line Driving: When driving straight, avoid gripping the steering wheel too tightly. Instead, relax your entire body, keep your shoulders loose, hold the steering wheel lightly with both hands, and focus your gaze far ahead. Stay calm and maintain a good mindset and posture. Reference Points for Straight-Line Driving: Use objects 150 meters away, such as trees or double yellow lines on the road, as reference points. Align your eyes, the highest point of the steering wheel, and the reference object to form a three-point line.

Should I Refuel When the Remaining Range is 140 Kilometers?

You should refuel when the remaining range is 140 kilometers. The mileage indication on the fuel gauge is not always accurate. While you can typically drive a few dozen kilometers after the low fuel warning, it's best to fill up the tank. Here are some details about driving range: Driving Range: Driving range, also referred to as endurance, is the total distance a vehicle such as a car or ship can travel continuously with its maximum fuel reserve. For electric vehicles, the driving range is the distance traveled from a fully charged state until the test conditions specified by the standard are met. It is an important economic indicator for electric vehicles. New Energy Vehicle Driving Range: This refers to the distance a vehicle can travel on a single full charge under ideal road conditions, wind speed, temperature, etc., at a constant speed. Hybrid vehicles and lead-acid battery vehicles (low-speed vehicles) generally have a shorter driving range.

Where Can I Get My Car Repaired?

Car repairs can be done at service stations or 4S shops. Car Repair: Car repair is a general term for car maintenance and repair. It refers to the process of troubleshooting faulty cars through technical means, identifying the cause of the fault, and taking certain measures to eliminate the fault and restore the car to certain performance and safety standards. Classification of Car Repair: Car repair includes major repairs and minor repairs. Major car repair refers to restorative repairs that use methods such as repairing or replacing any car parts (including basic components) to restore the car's sound technical condition and fully (or nearly fully) restore its lifespan. Minor car repair refers to operational repairs that use methods such as replacing or repairing individual parts to ensure or restore the car's working capability.

Do American Cars Burn Engine Oil?

American cars are less prone to burning engine oil. Unlike European cars, which focus heavily on fuel efficiency, American cars are not tuned to extreme limits in some aspects, resulting in relatively more stable performance and less likelihood of burning engine oil—though it's worth noting that small-displacement turbocharged American cars are specifically produced by U.S. automakers for the Eurasian market, as they don't sell well domestically. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: Avoid prolonged engine idling: Engine fuel consumption is much higher when idling than during normal driving. Therefore, if the vehicle remains stationary for an extended period, such as when waiting for someone, it's best to turn off the engine. During cold starts, warming up the engine should not exceed one minute—just a few minutes of low-speed driving is sufficient. Maintain good driving habits: Smooth and gentle driving is the most fuel-efficient. During acceleration, avoid stomping on the throttle. The correct approach is to accelerate smoothly and maintain a steady speed once a certain velocity is reached. In congested areas, pay attention to road conditions ahead to avoid sudden braking.
