Press the "AUTO" button, and the automatic air conditioning will adjust automatically according to the temperature inside your car. First, start the engine to warm it up, and wait until the engine temperature gauge needle reaches the middle position. Turn on the heater air conditioning, and set the air circulation to external circulation to expel the cold air from inside the car. After waiting for 2-3 minutes, set the air circulation to internal circulation. Choose an appropriate air conditioning temperature. Setting the temperature too low in summer can affect your health, so it's important to adjust the air conditioning temperature appropriately.

Turning on the heater is actually quite simple. Here's how I do it: First, start the car and let the engine warm up a bit, which makes the heater work hotter and faster. Then press the AUTO button on the dashboard, and the air conditioning system will start running automatically. Next, turn the temperature knob to your desired setting, like around 24 degrees—this temperature usually provides very comfortable warm air. The system automatically controls the fan speed and air direction, but if you feel the airflow is insufficient, you can manually press the fan speed button to increase it. Remember, in winter when the car is cold, the heater might take a bit longer to warm up at first because the engine hasn't heated up yet—just wait a minute or two. Additionally, the recirculation mode can quickly fill the cabin with warm air, improving comfort, but don't forget to switch to fresh air mode after driving for a while to avoid stuffiness. This feature is thoughtfully designed and saves a lot of hassle.

As a seasoned driver with years of experience, I'm accustomed to addressing the heating issue immediately after getting in the car. After starting the vehicle, I simply press the AUTO button, and the air conditioning kicks in. Then, I turn the temperature control knob to the heating range, say above 22°C, and warm air automatically blows out. The system adjusts the fan speed based on the cabin temperature, which is quite convenient, though I occasionally manually adjust the vent direction to blow towards the feet for more even warmth. It's also important to switch between recirculation and fresh air modes—recirculation heats up faster, but don't keep it on while driving; switching to fresh air is healthier. Heating isn't just about comfort; it also prevents window fogging, enhancing safety. Controls may vary slightly between car models—some allow setting heating priority on the central display. With a bit of practice, you'll get the hang of it.

The AUTO air conditioning is truly a hassle-free marvel. After starting the car engine, I simply press the AUTO button, and the air conditioning system activates immediately. Then, I just turn the temperature control dial to the warm setting, such as adjusting it to the high-temperature range of over 20 degrees—and warm air comes out. It automatically balances the airflow based on the external temperature. If quick heating is needed, you can manually increase the fan speed or briefly turn on the recirculation mode. Remember, in cold weather, the heating effect relies on the engine's warmth, so just wait a bit when the car has just started.

Why Are Domestic Cars Cheaper Than Joint Venture Cars?

There are many reasons why domestic cars are cheaper than joint venture cars. The following is a detailed introduction to the reasons: 1. Differences in the three major components: The three major components of a car consist of the transmission, chassis, and engine. Domestic cars started developing these components relatively late, so there is inevitably a significant gap in quality compared to joint venture cars. As a result, domestic cars can only compete on price to attract consumers. If domestic cars were priced similarly to joint venture cars, their sales would undoubtedly suffer. 2. Brand effect: Many consumers do not prioritize car performance when purchasing a vehicle but rather focus on the influence of the car brand. The brand influence of joint venture cars is significantly higher than that of domestic cars, and joint venture cars also invest much more in advertising. Joint venture cars indirectly pass on the cost of advertising to the price of the cars we buy. Excessive advertising also leaves a deeper impression in our minds, leading us to prefer joint venture cars when making a purchase, under the assumption that joint venture cars are inherently better.

Can I Claim Depreciation Costs for a Rear-End Collision?

Compensation for car accidents generally does not include depreciation costs. Below is a detailed explanation regarding rear-end collisions: 1. Liability Issues: If your car is rear-ended, the other party is fully responsible. You can directly claim compensation from the other party's insurance company using the accident responsibility determination certificate issued by the traffic police, along with the repair cost invoices. This falls under the property loss compensation of compulsory traffic insurance. If both parties cannot reach an agreement on compensation, you can directly sue the other party and their insurance company. 2. Compensation the Other Party Should Provide: In the event of a rear-end collision where the other party is fully at fault, besides claiming repair costs, you can also request compensation for vehicle depreciation and loss of income. For these additional affected expenses, you can demand compensation from the other party.
