The lighting control area of the Borgward BX5 is located below the air vent on the left side of the steering wheel. Turn the large round knob to the high beam position to turn on the high beam. The left scroll switch adjusts the backlight brightness, and the right scroll switch adjusts the height of the lights. Here is some relevant information: 1. The lighting control panel of the Borgward BX5 has three functional areas in total: the left is the light switch area, the middle adjusts the instrument brightness, and the right adjusts the headlight height. 2. The Borgward BX5 features automatic headlights. When the light adjustment switch is set to auto mode, it operates in automatic mode, turning the headlights on or off based on the ambient light level, followed by the position lights and headlights. 3. Drivers often alternate between high and low beams. Switching between them is a form of light signaling with various meanings, such as alerting vehicles at intersections, overtaking at night, or signaling oncoming vehicles to switch to low beams. 4. When using high beams, always switch to low beams when meeting another vehicle and resume high beams after passing. This prevents dazzling the other driver and causing accidents, which is also a standard of civilized driving.

Where is the Problem with Navigation Power Leakage?

Generally, power leakage issues are mostly caused by protocol problems, where the host makes incorrect judgments and cannot fully enter sleep mode. Below is an introduction to the CarPlay navigation feature: 1. Introduction: CarPlay is an in-car system developed by Apple that connects to an iPhone via USB. Currently, it supports functions such as navigation, music, phone calls, messaging, podcasts, and audiobooks. All features in CarPlay are synchronized with the phone, and all operations can be controlled via Siri. 2. Features: Navigation: Currently, CarPlay navigation does not support third-party apps and only works with Apple's built-in navigation (defaulting to Amap). Both the phone and CarPlay can search for destinations and enter the navigation interface. Music Playback: If the car owner's phone is an iPhone, songs stored on the phone can be played directly. Phone and Messaging: Opening the phone icon displays the first screen, which allows calls via Siri, the second screen is the dial pad, and the third is the contacts list.

What is the size of the reverse parking space?

2.35 meters, this is the standard size. Below are precautions for the subject 2 driving test: 1. Reverse parking into garage: (1) Accurately align with reference points and lines, observe the distance between the vehicle body and lines through rearview mirrors to avoid crossing lines. (2) Do not stop until the vehicle is completely inside the garage, pay attention to clutch control to avoid stopping midway or incomplete parking. After entering the area, park the vehicle at the designated position, then perform reverse parking; exit towards another direction, perform reverse parking again; exit towards the exit direction to complete the test. 2. Parallel parking: (1) Maintain proper distance from the garage when parallel, avoid crossing lines, and be careful not to run over garage corners when exiting. (2) Remember to turn on the turn signal when exiting. After entering the area, align parallel to the garage, drive to the front left of the garage, reverse into the garage from the right rear, exit to complete the test.

Can a car undergo annual inspection in advance?

Yes, a car can undergo annual inspection in advance. It can be inspected up to three months before the due date. For example, if the vehicle's inspection validity expires in September of this year, the annual inspection period would be from July 1st to September 30th of the same year. There are several ways to check the annual inspection time. The most straightforward method is to refer to the vehicle's registration date on the driving license or the electronic policy of compulsory traffic insurance. The registration month indicates the month when the annual inspection is due. Additionally, you can directly observe the annual inspection sticker, which clearly states the validity period of the inspection. Points to note for annual inspection: Vehicles that fail the annual inspection must be repaired within a specified time limit. If they still fail after the deadline, the vehicle management office will confiscate their license plates and prohibit further operation. Vehicles that do not undergo the annual inspection without reason or fail the inspection are not allowed to operate on the road or transfer ownership. Vehicles that meet the scrapping conditions or exceed the prescribed service life will not be inspected, and their license plates will be revoked, records deleted, and the vehicles scrapped.

Why Does Water Spray Out When Opening the Radiator Cap?

Generally, this is due to thermal expansion and contraction, which is a normal phenomenon. Below is relevant information about diesel radiators: 1. Function: To cool the engine's water. In summer, it's necessary to switch to summer antifreeze coolant for cooling purposes. The boiling point of antifreeze is around 108 degrees Celsius, higher than that of water, preventing overheating. In winter, winter-specific antifreeze should be used to ensure it doesn't freeze outdoors while still providing cooling. Higher-grade antifreeze should withstand temperatures as low as -60 degrees Celsius. 2. Cleaning Method: First, prepare a cleaning solution with 30 kg of water, 2.5 kg of caustic soda, and 0.6 kg of kerosene, then pour it into the radiator. Start the diesel engine and run it at medium speed for about 10 minutes before shutting it off. After 10 to 12 hours, restart the diesel engine and run it at medium speed for another 10 minutes before shutting it off again to drain the cleaning solution. Add clean cooling water, start the diesel engine, and let it run at medium speed for self-cleaning. Repeat this process 2 to 3 times to completely remove scale buildup.

Does the Buick Excelle require battery matching when replacing?

Matching is mandatory. Detailed explanations are as follows: 1. Function of the battery: The battery serves as a power source, supplying electricity to the car's starter and ignition system, and also distributes stable DC power to the vehicle's electrical appliances, ensuring that the electronic circuit system remains powered normally even when the car is parked. The battery also plays a role in stabilizing voltage, maintaining voltage stability during high-speed operation of the car, thereby protecting electrical appliances. 2. Hazards of mismatched batteries: (1) Operational faults: If a regular battery is installed, it may lead to insufficient current supply for the starter's operation, resulting in operational faults and potentially severe issues such as inadequate rotation speed. If the starter is damaged, the cost of replacing it far exceeds that of an auto start-stop battery. (2) Power management system faults: The standards for the power management system differ. Vehicles equipped with auto start-stop functionality have current, voltage, and power distribution calibrated according to the original battery specifications. If a regular battery is installed, the vehicle's internal power management system will still control the current based on the original standards, which can easily cause power management system faults or even system incompatibility with the power source, ultimately preventing the car from starting.

What Causes a Single-Cylinder Diesel Engine to Stop Supplying Fuel?

The negative pressure ventilation device of the fuel tank cap may be stuck or damaged. When the engine is running and the fuel level in the tank decreases, the air pressure inside the tank drops. Below is more information about the fuel tank: 1. Refueling amount: It is appropriate to refuel when there is a quarter of fuel left in the car's tank. If it falls below a quarter, it may affect the cooling capability of the vehicle's fuel pump. The fuel consumption of a car is influenced by factors such as the engine's displacement, tire size specifications, and vehicle weight. 2. Fuel tank cap identification: The interior switch may be located in different positions, such as on the floor to the left of the driver's seat, on the panel of the left front door, or on the center console. The identifier is typically a fuel pump icon. 3. Handling fuel leaks: After all passengers have exited the vehicle, do not close the doors. Keep at least one door open for ventilation to prevent the high concentration of evaporated gasoline from causing accidents. It is important to note that everyone should stay away from the car and stand off the road, ensuring safety before calling for assistance.
