You can use either auto or low beam at night, because if you switch the light control knob to the auto position, the headlights can automatically switch between high beam and low beam. Auto refers to automatic headlights, which are driving lights that can turn on automatically. Automatic headlights use a photosensitive sensor to detect the intensity of light and decide whether to turn on the headlights. Automatic headlights are controlled by a central intelligent control box that determines changes in light brightness based on a light sensor located behind the interior rearview mirror, automatically turning on or off the parking lights and low beams. The advantage of automatic headlights is that they can independently turn on and off the headlights based on the intensity of ambient light.

Which Gear Should Generally Be Used While Driving?

Generally, it is set to 4th gear, but the actual gear should be shifted based on the vehicle speed. The driver can save fuel by selecting the appropriate gear. The method of using gears and the benefits of selecting gears reasonably are as follows: Method of using gears: Start with 1st gear, then switch to 2nd gear after moving. Shift to 3rd gear when the speed is between 20 and 25, shift to 4th gear when driving at around 35 to 40, and shift to 5th gear when the speed reaches about 60. Generally, when you hear the sound change while driving, it's time to shift gears. Benefits of selecting gears reasonably: The driver can save fuel by selecting the appropriate gear. The so-called fuel efficiency of cars with mechanical transmissions is because mechanical transmissions have higher transmission efficiency, which can reduce transmission losses. Driving a manual transmission car requires a higher level of driving skill, and selecting gears reasonably and timely can truly save fuel.

What is a Dust Filter?

Dust filter is a device that works in conjunction with the charcoal canister, installed at the end of the pipe leading from the charcoal canister to the atmosphere. Below is relevant information about dust filters: Functions of a dust filter: Maintains air pressure balance and absorbs fuel vapor. The engine's fuel supply relies on the fuel pump drawing gasoline from the fuel tank. Without an external air passage, the fuel tank would remain in a negative pressure state, which would progressively increase, causing the tank to collapse and deform. Simultaneously, the working resistance and load on the fuel pump would continuously rise, potentially leading to severe cases where the fuel pump could burn out, and the sliding rod of the fuel level sensor could be crushed and deformed. Methods to extend the service life of a dust filter: Generally, the service life of an activated charcoal canister is quite long, and manufacturers typically do not recommend regular replacement of the charcoal canister. However, due to environmental factors, the ventilation pipe is prone to clogging from dust and debris. Therefore, installing a dust filter on the ventilation pipe can help prolong the effectiveness and service life of the charcoal canister.

Can a New Car Be Replaced If It Has Been Soaked in Water?

New cars cannot be replaced if they have been soaked in water. Below are the impacts of a water-damaged car. 1. Electronic System Failure: The most vulnerable component in a car to water damage is the electronic system. Although modern vehicles have waterproofing measures for electronic circuits, they cannot withstand heavy or prolonged water exposure. If water remains in the engine compartment for an extended period, it may cause wire corrosion and short circuits, leading to electronic malfunctions or even spontaneous combustion. 2. Engine Failure: Generally, if water has entered the engine compartment, do not attempt to start the car. There is no guarantee that the engine is free from water ingress, and starting it directly could result in complete engine failure. 3. Transmission Failure: The depreciation of a water-damaged car largely stems from transmission issues. Transmissions have vent holes to relieve pressure caused by temperature changes, usually located at the top of the transmission. If water levels rise high enough to submerge the engine compartment, water may enter the transmission. This can lead to problems such as slipping, shaking, or gear-shifting jerks, and in severe cases, the transmission may require major repairs. 4. Interior Mold Growth: Rainwater contains numerous impurities, and a soaked car interior creates an extremely humid environment prone to mold growth. If the vehicle is not dried promptly, mold can damage fabric and leather upholstery and produce unpleasant odors.
