What are the functions of the interior buttons in a Toyota Corolla?
2 Answers
Toyota Corolla interior button functions are detailed as follows: 1. Electronic Stability Program (ESP): Effectively prevents body skidding, tailspin, and other loss-of-control situations. It is generally not recommended for drivers to manually turn it off. 2. Parking Radar/Image: This button activates the panoramic image and radar functions, providing audible alerts and visual feedback to help the driver detect surrounding obstacles. 3. Internal/External Air Circulation: Internal circulation refers to heating or cooling the air inside the car and recirculating it, while external circulation allows outside air to enter the car. Use internal circulation in environments with heavy exhaust, dust, or smog, such as during traffic jams. On highways, it is advisable to periodically switch from internal to external circulation, with internal circulation preferably not exceeding one hour.
When I first started driving the Corolla, I was also a bit confused. The left side of the steering wheel usually has the light and dashboard brightness controls, which are the most convenient while driving. The most frequently used part of the center console is the air conditioning panel—the knob with the small fan icon adjusts the airflow, while the temperature control buttons are two large knobs in the automatic air conditioning version. Next to the gear shift, you can find the electronic parking brake button, though newer models have switched to an auto-hold function. The rearview mirror adjustment knob is hidden near the door handle—just twist it to adjust the angle. The sunroof control button is located next to the overhead reading light, and a light press opens or closes it. The layout of these buttons is quite user-friendly, and you’ll get used to them after a couple of days of driving.
