Method to turn on the heater in the Buick New Excelle: 1. For manual air conditioning, if the AC indicator is lit, press the AC button to turn off the cooling switch; 2. Rotate the temperature control dial to increase the temperature. The temperature adjustment range of the control dial is 18 to 32 degrees Celsius. Do not set the temperature lower than the outside temperature, otherwise it may result in incorrect temperature control; 3. Press the fan speed switch to adjust the appropriate air outlet speed. The Excelle is a mid-size car launched by SAIC General Motors. In terms of appearance, the Buick New Excelle adopts the brand's new family-style winged chrome grille, making the front face look sharper and more rugged. The combination of black piano vertical grille and high-brightness chrome winged grille focuses the visual center of the front on the logo. In terms of power, the Buick New Excelle introduces General Motors' new generation 1.3T and 1.0T dual-injection turbocharged engines for the first time. These two highly efficient and intelligent engines, which incorporate leading power technologies, are developed based on a new architecture and adopt multiple innovative technologies including dual-injection fuel injection and small-inertia turbochargers.

The most annoying thing about driving in winter is the icy cold seats and steering wheel, but turning on the heater in the Buick Excelle is actually super simple. First, start the engine and wait for the temperature gauge needle on the dashboard to move—don’t rush to turn on the heater, wait at least three to five minutes. Turn the temperature knob all the way to the right; the red zone indicates the highest temperature. Then, look for the fan speed button on the center console—press or twist it once, and warm air will start blowing out. If the first speed isn’t warm enough, switch to the second or third speed. Just make sure not to press the A/C button—the green light means it’s in cooling mode, which wastes fuel. Adjust the vents to blow toward your feet or both feet and the front for the most comfort, keeping your steering wheel from freezing. Keeping the air recirculation off a bit helps prevent window fogging. If the windshield frosts over, first switch to defrost mode for a while before adjusting back. I used this method all last winter, and my fuel costs didn’t increase much.

Can a Mainland China Driver's License Be Used in Taiwan?

Mainland China driver's licenses cannot be used in Taiwan. Here are the specific reasons: 1. Primarily because Mainland China is not a signatory to the Geneva Convention, and neither side of the strait recognizes each other's driver's licenses, hence Mainland licenses are invalid in Taiwan. 2. Many so-called international driving permits obtained through agencies are merely translations of the Mainland China license, and Taiwan does not recognize such translated versions either. 3. According to current Taiwanese regulations, even if a Mainland license is converted into a so-called international permit, if caught, it will be treated as driving without a license and subject to fines; in cases of drunk driving or accidents, not only will there be no insurance coverage, but legal liabilities must also be borne, potentially affecting the emergency contact's future entry to Taiwan. 4. Unless one first obtains a driver's license from a third region (such as Hong Kong, the USA, or many other countries and regions worldwide), and then obtains an international driving permit issued by that third region (e.g., the USA), only then can one rent or drive a car in Taiwan.

Does the BMW 3 Series Have a Panoramic Sunroof?

The BMW 3 Series is equipped with a panoramic sunroof. Due to its large surface area, it is prone to dust accumulation, so it is recommended to clean the dust every two months. After wiping the sliding rails with gauze, apply a small amount of engine oil or butter. Panoramic sunroofs are divided into three types: closed, segmented opening, and fully opening. Below is a detailed introduction to panoramic sunroofs: 1. The closed type consists of a single piece of glass that cannot be opened. This type of sunroof is essentially a large glass roof, offering a vast area of light transmission due to the absence of segmented structures. However, since it cannot be opened, it does not provide ventilation. 2. The folding fully opening type offers the large-area lighting capability of a panoramic sunroof while not compromising on functionality compared to standard sunroofs. However, due to structural reasons, its area is often smaller than that of segmented types, generally not exceeding half of the roof area. The advantage of a fully opening sunroof is the absence of a middle partition, featuring both tilt and slide functions.

What does 'view' mean in a car?

In a car, the 'view' button is used to switch between displays such as mileage and other data. The multifunction buttons on the steering wheel are typically designed for convenient driver operation, including volume adjustment and menu selection. Some models equipped with car phones also have call answer and microphone buttons on the steering wheel. Below are explanations of other buttons: 1. 'autohold' is the automatic parking function button; 2. 'sel' is the menu selection confirmation button, usually found on the multifunction steering wheel; 3. The 'ok' button has the exact same function as 'sel', with some cars using 'sel' and others using 'ok'; 4. The 'ac' button is the compressor switch, short for 'aircondition', which is the air conditioning cooling switch, as the car's heating system does not require the compressor.

How often should car antifreeze be replaced?

Car antifreeze should be replaced every two years or every 40,000 kilometers. The specific replacement interval may vary depending on the actual driving conditions of each vehicle. Functions of antifreeze: During routine car maintenance, it is necessary to regularly check the antifreeze to see if it has decreased in quantity or deteriorated. The full name of antifreeze is antifreeze coolant, which is a coolant with antifreeze properties. Antifreeze prevents the coolant from freezing and expanding in cold winter conditions, which could otherwise crack the radiator or damage the engine cylinder block. Antifreeze is a type of coolant containing special additives, primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It offers excellent performance in preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and resisting scale and corrosion throughout the year. How to judge the quality of antifreeze: You can observe the antifreeze's effectiveness. Generally, if the antifreeze has a high boiling point and a low freezing point, it can be considered of good quality. For example, water has a boiling point of 100 degrees Celsius, while antifreeze should have a boiling point above 108 degrees Celsius. The freezing point of water is 0 degrees Celsius, whereas typical antifreeze has a freezing point of -40 degrees Celsius or even lower.

How many kilometers should the timing belt of Skoda Octavia be replaced?

Where is the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) located?

The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is generally located under the windshield wiper deflector, below the door frame of the passenger seat (i.e., the lower left corner of the front windshield), or on the driver's side door hinge pillar, door lock pillar, or door edge, where it is quite visible. Some VINs may also be found in the engine compartment. The VIN consists of a total of 17 characters and serves as the unique identification information for a vehicle. Methods to locate the VIN: For trucks and large vehicles, the VIN is usually at the rear of the vehicle frame on the right side. For smaller cars, it is typically located under the windshield wiper deflector at the lower left corner of the front windshield or below the door frame of the passenger seat. There is a vehicle nameplate under the odometer that displays the VIN, and the 'VIN' section on the vehicle's registration certificate also indicates it. Additionally, the VIN can be found on the insurance policy, engine nameplate, etc. The complete VIN is only recorded on the vehicle itself and the registration certificate; it cannot be found elsewhere, including internal public security information networks, which are not authorized to record the full VIN. Uses of checking the VIN: To confirm the vehicle's identity, especially in special circumstances where more accurate identification of one's vehicle is needed; For traffic violation queries, the VIN is required to check for violations; To determine if the vehicle is part of a recall batch; For precise parts lookup, especially when the part number is unclear, by entering the VIN.
