Tesla owners inside the car can turn off the screen by tapping Controls, then selecting Safety & Security, and tapping Power Off to perform the shutdown operation. Here are some details about Tesla: 1. Operation Guide: Currently, Tesla's large screen does not support an independent shutdown function, but you can use the Screen Clean Mode to temporarily turn off the display. Tap Maintenance - Screen Clean Mode, and the screen will automatically turn off. To reactivate it, press and hold the restore button for 3 seconds to relight the screen. 2. Central Console Configuration: The central console is equipped with traditional USB wired connection options as well as simple and fast Bluetooth connectivity. Once connected to a mobile device, it enables sharing of contacts, music, and other information.

As an ordinary Tesla owner, when I encounter a screen that's too bright, I think about turning it off, especially when driving at night as it feels glaring. The method is actually quite simple: after sitting in the car and starting it, tap the car icon in the upper left corner of the screen to enter the settings menu, then scroll to the display section and find the option to turn off the display. Tap it, and the screen instantly goes black. But remember not to turn it off while driving, otherwise, you'll lose navigation and speed information, which is dangerous. It's safe to do so only when parked. Another method is to perform a soft reboot of the system: press and hold both the left and right scroll wheel buttons on the steering wheel for more than five seconds. The screen will turn off and then restart, solving any lag issues. The screen cannot be physically turned off because it's the core part of the smart system; any operation will automatically turn it back on. Lowering the brightness is better than turning it off completely. In the display settings, drag the brightness slider to the lowest, and the screen will be almost dark, saving power and being convenient. This operation is safe, reliable, and won't damage the car. Try it a few times, and you'll get the hang of it.

What are the correct steps for using an electronic parking brake?

Correct steps for using an electronic parking brake: 1. For automatic transmission, stop the car, shift to P gear, pull the parking brake, and turn off the engine. 2. For manual transmission, press the clutch, stop the car, shift to neutral, pull the parking brake, and turn off the engine. The electronic parking brake is a technology that achieves parking braking through electronic control, both of which rely on the friction generated between the brake disc and brake pads to achieve parking braking control. The only difference is that the control method has changed from the previous mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. Compared with the traditional manual mechanical parking brake system, the electronic parking brake system has the following advantages: 1. The parking brake handle is eliminated in the cabin, providing more design space for the overall interior styling. 2. The parking brake is replaced by a button, which is simple and labor-saving, reducing the driver's operational intensity.

How to Deal with Scratches on a White Car?

Scratches on a white car can be categorized into three types: minor scratches, noticeable scratches that haven't damaged the paint, and scratches that have penetrated the primer. The corresponding solutions for these three scenarios are as follows: 1. Minor Scratches: If the scratches are not severe, toothpaste can be used to remove them. The fine particles in toothpaste gradually polish away the visible scratches when rubbed gently. 2. Noticeable Scratches Without Paint Damage: For deeper scratches, a touch-up pen or nail polish can be applied. It's important to choose the correct color, as uneven application may affect the appearance. 3. Scratches That Have Penetrated the Primer: For more severe scratches, colored putty can be used for repair. Since the primer lies directly above the steel panel, prompt treatment is necessary to prevent rusting caused by rainwater or other contaminants. Colored putty can effectively repair the damage. Use sandpaper on the scratched area without unnecessarily enlarging it, focusing on thoroughly cleaning off any dirt. Apply the putty carefully to ensure it fully fills the scratch. Finally, apply a compound and wax to finish the repair.

What to Do When Urea is Not Consumed and Torque is Limited?

The methods to address the issue of urea not being consumed and torque being limited are as follows: 1. Check whether the post-processing wiring harness and sensors are properly connected, and make adjustments or repairs if any issues are found. 2. Inspect the urea pipeline for any leaks or abnormalities, and replace it promptly if necessary. 3. Verify the normal operation of the urea pump; if any malfunction is detected, promptly investigate the cause of the fault. 4. Examine the urea nozzle to ensure it is functioning correctly; if the nozzle is clogged or fails to open properly, clean or replace it immediately. When a vehicle does not consume urea, the problem often involves not just one fault code but a series of fault codes, requiring systematic troubleshooting. A service station diagnostic tool can be used to check the relevant codes. If the vehicle does not use urea or uses products of insufficient purity or inferior quality, the engine's torque output will be limited. Additionally, inferior-quality urea can contaminate the catalyst in the SCR catalytic reaction tank, leading to severe consequences. Therefore, it is essential to use high-quality urea products. If it is found that the vehicle is not consuming urea, timely maintenance should be performed.

What Causes Excessive High Pressure in Automotive Air Conditioning Gauges?

The causes and solutions for excessive high pressure in automotive air conditioning gauges are as follows: 1. Air in the system. The system should be completely evacuated and refrigerant should be refilled. 2. System blockage. This is often caused by a blocked or malfunctioning expansion valve. The solution is to replace the expansion valve. 3. Excessive refrigerant. Symptoms include the exhaust port feeling "hot" to the touch and the suction port feeling "warm" to the touch. Normally, these areas should feel "cool" to the touch, and the compressor may occasionally produce liquid hammering sounds. The solution is to completely evacuate the system and refill the refrigerant to the correct amount. 4. Poor condenser cooling. Symptoms include the section of the pipeline from the condenser outlet to the expansion valve inlet feeling "hot" to the touch. Normally, this section should feel "warm" to the touch. The solution is to clean the condenser and radiator grille of any debris, and replace them if necessary. 5. Expansion valve failure. Symptoms include the low-pressure pipe having excessive condensation or frost. The solution is to check if the expansion valve is installed correctly. If it is, replace the expansion valve. 6. Other faults. These may include cooling fan failure, engine overheating, or excessive or insufficient lubricating oil.
