You can find the voice icon on the desktop to activate the voice assistant. If you want to enable the voice dialing function of the in-car dashcam, click the microphone icon and say "caller's name" or "call someone's name." The vehicle will start recognizing the command and then execute it.

I just learned how to turn on the voice control in my new car, and it's quite simple: Look for a small icon button on the steering wheel, usually a microphone or voice symbol, and press it to activate the voice assistant. Some cars require going into the central control screen, clicking the settings menu, and toggling the switch under voice control or a similar option. Certain high-end models support direct wake-up by saying 'Hey, [car name].' I use it to navigate to coffee shops or switch songs without taking my eyes off the road, making it convenient for driving operations. It's recommended to check the vehicle manual before starting to ensure compatibility, calibrate the microphone position during initial setup, and avoid using it in noisy environments to prevent recognition issues. Overall, this feature enhances convenience and reduces the feeling of fumbling around—new car enthusiasts should definitely give it a try.

Emphasizing the safety driving perspective, the in-car voice control activation method: in most cases, press the voice button on the steering wheel to activate, or enter the central control settings to enable the voice control function. Ensure the vehicle is stationary during initial setup, input preferred commands before use, such as saying navigation destinations or adjusting music volume; the benefit is reducing manual operations to avoid accident risks, especially recommended for long-distance driving. If it doesn't open, check if the microphone is blocked or if the software needs updating, maintaining a quiet environment for more accurate voice recognition. This feature is essential for modern cars, prioritizing driving focus.

What is the S gear for?

The S gear in a car represents the sport mode of the vehicle. Sport Mode: In fact, S is the abbreviation for sport. In sport mode, the car's performance in various aspects will be enhanced, and the acceleration performance will be stronger. Sport mode is often used for overtaking or climbing hills. After engaging sport mode, the car's gear will drop quickly, with a certain delay in shifting, and the engine can maintain high RPM for an extended period. The car will operate at low gear and high RPM for a longer time, allowing it to generate greater torque and instantly boost the car's speed. Sport mode can be switched freely, and you don't need to press the brake to switch to sport mode while driving. Disadvantages of Sport Mode: It will increase the car's fuel consumption, and rapid acceleration may reduce the comfort level of the vehicle.

What does M/S mean?

In automobiles, M/S refers to the manual mode and sport mode gear positions in automatic transmission models. Currently, car brands that feature both M/S modes simultaneously include BMW's gear lever (commonly known as the "chicken stick") and some Japanese Toyota off-road models. Below are introductions to manual mode and sport mode: Manual Mode: Manual mode, indicated by "+/-", allows shifting into manual mode when placed in this position, enabling manual gear changes using the +/- function. Sport Mode: Sport mode automatically adjusts engine speed and corresponding shift timing, delaying upshifts or advancing downshifts to maintain higher engine speeds. This provides a more noticeable acceleration feel but inevitably results in higher fuel consumption.

What are the differences between automatic and manual transmissions?

Automatic and manual transmissions differ in terms of operation difficulty and safety performance. Below are detailed explanations of these differences: Operation difficulty: Automatic transmission vehicles primarily rely on the hydraulic torque converter's hydraulic transmission and automatic shifting principle to perform gear changes. Even beginners with limited automotive knowledge can quickly master it, with lower labor intensity and a more relaxed driving experience. Manual transmissions mainly depend on the driver's physical operation of the clutch pedal to shift gears, making the operation relatively cumbersome. It requires drivers to possess higher driving skills, resulting in greater labor intensity. Safety performance: Coasting in neutral with a manual transmission may lead to risks such as understeer or drifting. Additionally, if the engine stalls during idle, the vehicle will lose power steering and brake boost, increasing safety hazards during driving. Automatic transmission vehicles cannot coast in neutral, as they maintain continuous power support throughout the entire journey, making driving safer.
