Here are the specific functions of the Changan Oshan X7 key: Close windows after turning off the engine: Press and hold the lock button on the remote key to close the windows. This function may also be available on ordinary family cars. Parking lot car finding: Some car keys have a dedicated car-finding button. For certain vehicles, pressing the lock button twice will trigger the car to sound its horn, indicating its location, making it easier to find the car quickly in crowded parking areas. Automatic trunk opening: Many car models have a trunk-opening button on the remote key. Press and hold the trunk unlock button, and the trunk will open automatically. Keyless entry: You need to carry the car key. When the key is near the car, it will automatically match with the car's decoder. Press the unlock button on the car door handle to unlock the car.

Every morning before work, I rely on the remote start function of this car key. Just press and hold the round button for 3 seconds, and the engine roars to life. In summer, when the car interior is as hot as a steamer, turning on the AC ten minutes in advance makes it much cooler when I get in. The lock button also automatically closes the windows. Once I forgot to close the sunroof, but luckily pressing the lock button raised all the windows. The trunk button is especially handy when shopping with kids—holding shopping bags, just press the key for two seconds and the trunk pops open on its own. The mechanical key is cleverly hidden; just pry open the side cover for emergency access. Last time during a power outage in the neighborhood, it saved the day. The remote range works reliably within 50 meters, much better than my old car.

The Oshan X7 key actually hides a lot of high-tech features. A short press on the unlock button opens the driver's door, and pressing it again unlocks all other doors—a design that's very practical for anti-robbery. Pressing the lock button triggers two flashes and beeps for confirmation, so those with OCD never have to worry about whether the car is properly locked. The car-finder function is especially useful in unfamiliar parking lots—just double-click the horn icon button, and the car will beep and flash its lights, making it highly visible at night. There's no issue with signal interference even when the key is placed next to a phone, as proven after over a year of use. The best feature is the remote window control, which allows ventilation before getting in on hot summer days—a very user-friendly touch. Remember to replace the coin cell battery regularly; the battery compartment is designed on the back of the key.

What is the function of ABS in cars?

ABS function: Maximize the effectiveness of the brakes, reducing braking time and distance. Effectively prevent vehicle skidding and fishtailing during emergency braking, ensuring good driving stability. Allow steering during emergency braking, providing excellent steering control. Avoid severe friction between tires and the ground, reducing tire wear. Classification of ABS: ABS is mainly classified by channels. In ABS, the brake pipelines that can independently adjust brake pressure are called control channels. ABS devices are divided into four-channel, three-channel, two-channel, and one-channel types. One-channel ABS: Also known as single-channel ABS, it has a brake pressure regulator installed in the rear wheel brake main pipe and a wheel speed sensor mounted on the rear axle differential (sometimes one on each rear wheel). Two-channel ABS: This type of ABS struggles to balance directional stability, steering control, and braking efficiency, and is rarely used today. Three-channel ABS: Independently controls the two front wheels, while the two rear wheels are controlled together based on the low-select principle (i.e., both wheels are controlled by one channel to ensure the wheel with less traction does not lock), also known as hybrid control. Four-channel ABS: Equipped with four wheel speed sensors, each wheel brake cylinder has its own brake pressure regulator for independent control, forming a four-channel control system.

How to Shift from First Gear to Neutral?

Any forward gear can be shifted to Neutral (N) at any time, but shifting from Park (P) or Reverse (R) to Neutral requires pressing the brake first. You should press the brake to bring the vehicle to a complete stop before shifting from Neutral to other gears. However, under special circumstances, Neutral can be directly shifted to a forward gear, though this may damage the transmission. Turn on the power (without starting the engine), press the brake, shift to Neutral first, then start the engine. After that, shift to Drive (D), release the handbrake, lift the foot brake, and start moving.

Should an Automatic Car Be Turned Off First or Shifted to P Gear First?

For automatic cars, it is acceptable to either shift to P gear before turning off the engine or after. Below are some situations that may occur if P gear is not engaged when turning off the engine: 1. The vehicle may not power off completely. Some vehicles with one-touch start functionality will not power off if turned off directly without shifting to P gear. In such cases, the audio system may continue to play, the cigarette lighter may remain functional, and the dashcam may keep recording. However, this feature can be beneficial when briefly parked and waiting, as you can turn off the engine in N gear without interrupting activities like smoking or listening to music. 2. The key may not be removable. The car key has four positions: LOCK (insertion position), ACC (first turn), ON (second turn), and START (final position). The key can only be removed when in the LOCK position. To start the engine, the key must first be turned to ON, then rotated to START for ignition. After the engine starts, releasing the key returns it to the ON position. If the engine is turned off without shifting to P gear, the key can only be turned to ACC, making it impossible to remove. To remove the key, P gear must be engaged, allowing the key to be turned to LOCK. 3. The doors may not lock. If the engine is turned off directly without shifting to P gear and an attempt is made to lock the car, the doors may not lock because the operation does not follow standard procedures. In this case, the central locking system will not activate, serving as a reminder for the owner to check the P gear.

What to Do When One Side of the Car's Tire Falls into a Ditch?

If you are driving a four-wheel-drive model, you can engage the low-range four-wheel-drive mode to free yourself. If it's a front-wheel-drive model, you will have to wait for a tow truck to rescue you. You can use a jack to lift the sunken side and place wooden boards or stones under the tire, then accelerate to climb out. Check the vehicle's control arms, steering knuckles, tires, and other components for damage on the spot. As long as the impact is not too severe, components like the control arms will not be damaged. If there is no issue, you can continue driving. If there is a problem, you will have to call your insurance company to arrange for a tow truck.
