Enter the navigation interface, click on the menu, then select function settings, and click on 'About Navigation'. Inside, there is a navigation information button. Click on it to view the serial number and version information. The system will prompt whether to upgrade. Select 'Yes', and a dialog box for starting the upgrade will pop up. First, select Amap Navigation, then choose to upgrade. Here is some extended information about car navigation: 1. The built-in GPS antenna in the car navigation system receives data from at least 3 of the 24 GPS satellites orbiting the Earth, thereby determining the car's current location. The navigation host matches the position coordinates determined by the GPS satellite signals with the electronic map data to accurately locate the car on the electronic map. 2. The car navigation system mainly consists of two parts: the navigation host and the navigation display terminal. Based on this, it can achieve various functions such as driving navigation, route recommendations, information queries, and playing AV/TV. The driver only needs to watch the display screen, listen to voice prompts, and operate the remote control to achieve the above functions, making driving effortless and comfortable.

Last time I went to the 4S shop to update the navigation system, they asked me to bring the car key and vehicle identification number. The staff first checked the infotainment system version and said that the old Lavida models with MIB system required SD card updates. The newer models with LCD screens can directly connect to WiFi to check for updates. The safest way is still to have it done at the 4S shop, where they use specialized computers to download map packages and flash the system - the whole process took over two hours and cost around 400 yuan. DIY attempts can easily go wrong; there was a case where an owner downloaded a pirated map package online and ended up crashing the head unit. After the update, remember to ask the technician to calibrate the GPS positioning, otherwise the navigation may drift. With phone mounts being so convenient these days, using CarPlay to mirror Amap is actually more hassle-free.

What does the little red car mean?

A flashing little red car on the dashboard indicates that the car's anti-theft system is in operation. Normal phenomenon: When the car is turned off and the doors are locked, a red car-shaped indicator light on the dashboard flashes once every one to two seconds. This is a normal phenomenon, indicating that the car has entered the anti-theft state. Anti-theft system malfunction: If it flashes while driving, it means that a door is not properly closed; if the indicator light stays on constantly, it means there is a malfunction in the anti-theft system. Common faults of the anti-theft system: If there is signal interference in the parking location, the car may not respond to remote operations. In this case, move the car to another location and then lock it.

Does Car Wash at Gas Stations Damage the Car?

Early gas stations used plastic brushes for automatic car washes, which easily damaged the car's surface. Later, they switched to soft brushes. However, during the washing process, soft brushes might pick up dirt, and since every car is washed in the same cycle, it's unlikely that staff clean them daily. Because it's a free service, it's impossible to be as professional and meticulous, and this friction process could potentially harm the car. Introduction to Car Wash Machines: Car wash machines primarily use high-pressure water and computer-controlled brushes to automatically clean cars. Advantages of Car Wash Machines: Car wash machines are aesthetically pleasing, cause minimal damage to the car's paint, and are easy to operate. In recent years, they have been widely used in the automotive service industry. Typically, a high-pressure water gun connected to tap water is used in traditional car washes, combined with large towels and some detergents.

What do Sport, Eco, and Normal driving modes mean?

Sport, Eco, and Normal are all driving modes of a car, which can be switched by the driver. Sport Mode: Sport mode can be used when overtaking. The vehicle has high torque output from the start, and the gear shift time is delayed, further extending the duration of high torque. With enhanced power, the vehicle provides a stronger sense of acceleration. Normal Mode: This mode can be used for long periods during regular driving. The vehicle operates under standard conditions, striking a good balance between fuel efficiency and performance. In this mode, the suspension is moderately firm, and the throttle response is relatively sensitive, offering comfort without losing agility. Eco Mode: Eco mode has certain energy-saving effects in urban traffic congestion, but actual fuel consumption may vary depending on the driver's habits. In Eco mode, the vehicle's computer reduces fuel injection, adjusts the transmission shift logic, and limits some power output.

Should You Turn Off the Engine During a One or Two-Minute Traffic Jam?

It is not necessary to turn off the engine during a one or two-minute traffic jam, but it is recommended to do so during prolonged traffic jams. Leaving the engine running while parked consumes fuel: While waiting at an intersection, you should estimate the waiting time based on the traffic signal timer. If the waiting time exceeds 2 minutes, it is advisable to turn off the engine. Generally, the fuel consumed by idling a small car is more than the fuel required to restart the engine. Properly turning off the engine: The engines of typical household cars are usually designed to withstand over 50,000 starts. Under normal usage frequency for household vehicles, even after 10 years, the number of starts would still be far less than 50,000. Therefore, properly turning off the engine when parked will not adversely affect the vehicle's engine or battery.

Can the QR code on the driver's license replace the driver's license?

Driver's license QR code cannot replace the driver's license. Reasons why it cannot be replaced: The driver's license QR code is only a convenient measure to facilitate the people and improve work efficiency. It can only handle non-on-site simplified procedures for traffic violations by motor vehicle drivers and minor on-site traffic accidents, and cannot replace the current driver's license. Relevant regulations: Article 95 of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that if a motor vehicle driven on the road does not display the motor vehicle license plate, does not have the inspection qualification mark or insurance mark, or does not carry the vehicle license or driver's license, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall detain the motor vehicle, notify the party to provide the corresponding license, mark or complete the corresponding procedures, and may impose penalties in accordance with the provisions of Article 90 of this Law.

What Causes Shaking When Starting a Manual Transmission Car?

Manual transmission car shaking during startup can be attributed to low temperatures and prolonged vehicle inactivity. Low Temperatures: Primarily due to low temperatures, the lubricating oil is in a semi-solidified state and cannot fully perform its lubrication function. As a result, the resistance during startup is greater than under normal temperature conditions, leading to shaking. Prolonged Vehicle Inactivity: The engine oil flows back into the oil pan at the bottom of the engine. Therefore, when starting the engine after a long period of inactivity (such as overnight), the upper part of the engine is initially without oil and lacks lubrication. It takes approximately 30 seconds after startup for the oil pump to circulate the oil to critical lubrication points such as the pistons, connecting rods, and crankshaft.
