2021 Buick Excelle interior function buttons include the following: 1. Center console buttons: (1) Electronic Stability Control (ESC), enabled by default. It is not recommended to turn it off unless on slippery roads such as during rain or snow. (2) Auto Start-Stop, which temporarily shuts off the engine at traffic lights. The vehicle restarts when the driver's foot leaves the brake pedal. (3) Recirculation/Outside Air, where recirculation heats or cools the air inside the car and recirculates it, while outside air allows external air to enter the vehicle. (4) Dual-Zone Sync, when enabled, changing the driver's temperature setting will automatically adjust the other zones to the same temperature. Disabling this feature allows each zone to be set individually to meet the needs of passengers in different seats. 2. Door buttons: (1) Window lock button. (2) One-touch up/down window control switch. 3. Overhead buttons: (1) Sunroof horizontal opening. (2) Front passenger reading lights. (3) Sunroof tilt opening.

On the left side of the steering wheel are mainly the light controls. The rotary knob controls the headlight switch, pushing it outward activates the high beams, and the small lever on the lower right corner of the steering wheel is the windshield wiper. The button group on the right side is much more complex, with volume adjustment and track switching located near the thumb position. The cruise control button is hidden on the back of the left side of the steering wheel, requiring a feel to locate it. The air conditioning controls are below the center console, with the left knob adjusting temperature and the right one controlling fan speed. The square buttons in the middle are for defogging and air recirculation. Remember to press the AC button when turning on the air conditioning in summer. In front of the gear lever are the electronic parking brake and auto-hold buttons. The auto-hold feature is especially effortless when stopping at red lights by pressing the brake pedal firmly.

The feature I use most often in this car is the voice control button on the steering wheel. Holding it down activates the infotainment system, and saying 'Navigate to gas station' directly plans the route. Below the 8-inch touchscreen on the center console, there's a row of physical buttons—the home button returns to the main interface, and the knob can zoom in on the navigation map. Particularly noteworthy is the blue OnStar button above the rearview mirror; pressing it during a flat tire connects you to emergency assistance. There's also a USB port in the storage compartment for playing music from a flash drive, which is much more stable than Bluetooth. The window control buttons are next to the door handle, with a child lock for the rear windows. The trunk release is hidden at the lower left corner of the driver's seat—just feel for the small car icon button.

What Does the Tire Model Number Mean?

Tire model numbers represent the tire's width, aspect ratio, type, and applicable size. For example, a tire model number like 205/60R16 can be interpreted as follows: The first number 205 indicates the tire width is 205 millimeters. The number 60 denotes the tire's aspect ratio is 60%, meaning the sidewall height is 60% of the tire's width. The letter R stands for radial tire, and 16 signifies the rim diameter is 16 inches. In addition to the model number, tires also display the following common specifications: Carcass ply material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin abbreviations, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, and ZG for steel radial cord. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. Letters from A to Z represent certified speed ratings ranging from 4.8 km/h to 300 km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160 km/h; H: 210 km/h; V: 240 km/h; W: 270 km/h; Y: 300 km/h.

What is the green book of a car called?

The green book is the registration certificate, which is issued to the car owner on the spot by the staff of the vehicle management office at the inspection site when a new car is registered. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Introduction: The so-called big green book is the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate', which is equivalent to a person's household registration booklet. It records the registration date and the date of manufacture, and is kept by the vehicle owner. It is generally not used on a daily basis and is not carried with the vehicle. However, it must be used when transferring the ownership of the vehicle. If the car is mortgaged for a loan, the lending company will usually also hold the big green book. Losing the big green book means that we only have the right to use the vehicle but not the right to sell it. 2. Prerequisite: Only when the car is purchased in full can the green book be obtained. If the car is purchased with a loan, the green book must be mortgaged to the loan bank or company. After the customer repays the loan, the big green book must be taken to the vehicle management office to release the mortgage, otherwise the ownership of the car will belong to the loan company.

What is the difference between antifreeze and water?

The difference between antifreeze and water lies in the fact that automotive antifreeze has a higher boiling point and lower freezing point than water. Antifreeze can reach a boiling point of 106°C and a freezing point below -45°C, offering better cooling performance and superior freeze protection compared to water. Additionally, antifreeze contains various special additives that provide anti-corrosion, anti-scaling, and anti-rust properties. Methods for selecting antifreeze: The basic indicators for antifreeze are its freezing and boiling points. The market offers antifreeze with freezing points of -15°C, -25°C, -30°C, -40°C, etc. Generally, it is advisable to choose an antifreeze with a freezing point at least 10°C lower than the lowest temperature in your region. Antifreeze replacement intervals: For vehicles that operate for extended periods, such as taxis, high-quality antifreeze should typically be replaced annually. Vehicles with shorter operating times can have their antifreeze replaced every two years or every 30,000 kilometers. To prevent excessive foam formation, which can reduce the heat exchange efficiency between the antifreeze and engine components, ensure the product is within its validity period when adding it. Long-life antifreeze can remain effective for up to three years. If suspended particles, sediment, or signs of deterioration or discoloration are observed in the antifreeze, it should be replaced promptly, and the system should be cleaned.

What does the AC switch on the air conditioner mean?

The car AC switch is the cooling switch, commonly referred to as turning on the cold air. The AC switch controls the compressor, which is one of the main components of the car's air conditioning refrigeration system, responsible for compressing and transporting refrigerant vapor. Proper use of the AC switch: 1. Cold seasons: In cold seasons, it is necessary to quickly raise the temperature inside the car. When the car starts, the engine begins to warm up. Wait until the engine temperature gauge needle points to the middle position, then turn on the warm air conditioning, and at the same time set the air circulation to external circulation to allow the cold air inside the car to be expelled or wait for 2 to 3 minutes before setting the air circulation to internal circulation. 2. Rainy or snowy weather: In rainy or snowy weather, when there is a large temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car, the front windshield is very prone to fogging. At this time, simply adjust the warm air outlet direction to the position that blows on the front windshield, and the fog can be removed in a few minutes.
