40bar water pressure is not sufficient for car washing. The recommended pressure range is between 60 to 80bar. Water pressure within this range can effectively remove dirt and sludge from the vehicle's body without causing damage to the paint. Below are some precautions for car washing: Use Soft Water: Avoid using any water other than soft water, including hot water, alkaline water, or water with high hardness. These substances can damage the paint surface, leaving marks and a thin film on the car's body after drying. Avoid Detergents: While there may be highly corrosive stains on the car body, such as asphalt, oil stains, bird droppings, or insect feces that are difficult to clean, never use laundry detergent, stain removers, or low-quality soap during washing. These cleaning agents contain alkali, which can strip the oils from the paint surface and accelerate paint aging.

What does BSM mean on a car?

BSM in cars refers to the Blind Spot Monitoring system, with the full English name being Blind Spot Monitoring. It is designed to alert drivers to approaching vehicles in adjacent lanes behind them, thereby helping drivers check the areas on both sides and the rear of the vehicle during lane changes. If the car dashboard indicates a BSM malfunction, it might be due to the radar inside the rear bumper malfunctioning because of dirt or dust. The owner can clean the rear bumper, then turn off and restart the car to see if the fault message disappears. Alternatively, they can visit a 4S shop for inspection and repair. The role of the car's blind spot monitoring system: Improving driving safety in adverse weather conditions: During severe weather such as heavy fog, rain, snow, or at night when visibility is severely limited, the blind spot monitoring system plays a crucial auxiliary role, significantly enhancing driving safety. The blind spot detection system is a small device, but its contribution to overall driving safety is far from negligible or unimpressive. Especially during high-speed lane changes or in urban roads with heavy traffic where sudden situations are prone to occur, its role often surpasses other vehicle safety configurations, playing a pivotal role in avoiding accidents and enhancing driving safety.
