The method to turn on the XTS rearview mirror heating is as follows: 1. Press the rear window defroster switch button below the center control screen, and the rearview mirror heating function will be activated simultaneously, which will eliminate fog or frost on the rearview mirror surface. 2. Of course, the rearview mirror heating requires some time to take effect, and it does not immediately reach the temperature for defogging after being turned on. Drivers should not take it lightly. The rear window defroster function will automatically turn off after a certain period of use. If the owner needs continuous use, it can be turned on again. Additional Information: 1. There are two designs for the rearview mirror heating control switch: one is integrated with the electric rearview mirror adjustment combination switch, and the other is located on the air conditioning control panel. Regardless of the design, the function is the same. After pressing the button, the heating elements behind the rearview mirror glass will quickly heat up to a fixed temperature within a few minutes, typically between 35-60 degrees Celsius. Warm air will emerge from both left and right rearview mirrors, and the water droplets on the mirror surface will gradually evaporate due to the rising temperature, while the fog will slowly disappear, thereby achieving the effect of heating the mirror, defogging, and defrosting. If the rainfall is particularly heavy, the effect may be reduced and not very noticeable. 2. Note that the rearview mirror heating consumes a significant amount of power, so when using the rearview mirror heating function, ensure the vehicle is in the running state. Avoid using this function when the car is cold. If the battery is low on charge or malfunctions, the rearview mirror heating may not activate.

What to Do When the Central Locking System Frequently Jumps?

For the reasons and solutions to the frequent jumping of the central locking system, the details are as follows: 1. Damaged brake light power line: When the central locking system receives the correct code signal, the control wave receiving circuit is triggered to increase the receiving time. If the input code signal does not match, the receiving circuit will not be triggered. Solution: Check the integrity of the power line promptly and replace it in time. 2. Incorrect power connection of the central locking system: If more than 10 code signals do not match, the lock will assume that the power connection of the central locking system is incorrect and will stop receiving any signals, including the correct code signals. Solution: In this case, the owner can mechanically insert the key into the door lock hole to open the door. 3. System not closed in time: Signal reception recovery, if the door is not opened within 30 seconds after unlocking it with the remote mechanism, the door will automatically lock again. Solution: Start the car with the key and turn the main switch of the remote door lock system off and then on again.

What is the fault when the BMW X1 power steering fails?

BMW X1 power steering failure is caused by steering gear failure, power assistance failure, lack of oil, heavy steering, steering noise, or steering system oil leakage. More information about power steering is as follows: 1. Power steering system: It is mainly divided into hydraulic power steering and electric power steering. Hydraulic power steering is a traditional method with the advantages of low cost and sufficient steering power, commonly used in household vehicles. In comparison, electric power steering has more advantages. First, the motor provides assistance only during steering, which can reduce fuel consumption; second, the steering assistance level can be adjusted through software, providing a noticeable "road feel" at high speeds, improving vehicle stability; third, the system is easy to assemble and maintain. 2. Self-rescue method for electronic power steering failure: Lift the throttle, push the gear lever into a low gear, pull the parking brake, and when the speed significantly decreases, press the brake pedal to gradually stop the vehicle.
