There are two types of combination switches for the low beam headlights in a car: one is a lever-type switch, and the other is a rotary knob-type switch. The low beam headlights can be turned on by controlling the switch. The specific operations for turning on the low beam headlights of a car are as follows: 1. Lever-type switch: This is a lever located on the left side of the steering wheel. By rotating the light control switch handle to the low beam position, the low beam headlights will illuminate. The left lever has three positions in total: forward is for the high beam always on; middle is for the low beam; backward is for a single high beam flash. 2. Rotary knob-type switch: This is located below the left air vent on the dashboard. By rotating the knob clockwise to the low beam position, the low beam headlights will illuminate. The indicator lights on the dashboard can help distinguish: the low beam icon has downward light lines, while the high beam icon has forward light lines.

Should Automatic Transmission Vehicles Be Turned Off Before Shifting to P Gear or Vice Versa?

Automatic transmission vehicles should be shifted to P gear before turning off the engine. The P gear, also known as the Parking gear, derives its name from the English word 'Park,' meaning to stop or park. When the driver shifts into P gear, it signals the vehicle's computer that the car is stationary and ready to be turned off. Reasons for shifting to P gear before turning off the engine: 1. Prevents sudden movement: In reality, the engine can be turned off in any gear. However, if turned off in D gear or R gear, the car may lurch forward or backward upon restarting, which is hazardous. If turned off in N gear, the car can still move under external force, posing potential risks; 2. Cuts off power transmission: P gear is similar to N gear in that both can cut off power transmission inside the transmission. However, P gear includes an additional locking mechanism that secures the output shaft, preventing both wheels from rotating in the same direction.

What are the differences between Santana and New Jetta?

Santana and New Jetta differ in the following aspects: 1. Exterior: The New Santana features a slightly higher waistline, which is straight and sharp, giving the car a fuller and more powerful visual effect, with a more harmonious overall appearance. In contrast, the New Jetta has a lower waistline, and its folds are overly prominent, dividing the already not-so-large cross-section, making it appear somewhat thin. 2.

The high-end version of the New Santana includes head safety airbags, which are not available in any version of the New Jetta.

What is the maximum speed when driving on snow and ice?

The speed should be kept below 30km/h. Avoid overtaking unnecessarily, drive straight as much as possible, and refrain from frequent lane changes. If there are ruts, follow them. Precautions for driving in snowy conditions: 1. Prevent window fogging: When driving in cold weather, windows can easily fog up due to the large temperature difference between the inside and outside. If the vehicle has a windshield heating function, turn it on fully. Additionally, use the defroster setting of the air conditioning to prevent window fogging. 2. Light control: If visibility is poor or it is snowing, turn on the front and rear fog lights. However, if visibility is good or it is sunny after snow, turn off the fog lights to avoid dazzling the drivers of vehicles in front and behind. 3. Speed control: The most important thing when driving in snow is to control your speed, followed by maintaining a sufficient safe distance from the vehicle in front. When you notice the vehicle in front slowing down, immediately ease off the accelerator and place your foot on the brake pedal to prepare for braking.
