Foton has many models, and the dashboard warning lights may vary depending on the model. Below is a detailed introduction to some of the dashboard warning lights: 1. Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light: This light indicates whether the engine oil pressure is normal. If it lights up while driving, the vehicle should not continue to operate. Continuing to drive may cause severe damage to the engine. 2. Engine Coolant Temperature Warning Light: This light will illuminate if the coolant temperature is too high or too low. It appears blue when the temperature is too low and red when it is too high. In some vehicles, instead of a warning light, there is a temperature gauge on the dashboard where the needle moves up or down with the coolant temperature. 3. Seat Belt Reminder Light: Most models nowadays are equipped with a seat belt reminder light. It is depicted as a small red figure with a band across the chest, resembling a figure holding a sword. The light will turn off once the seat belt is fastened or when exiting the vehicle.

Where is the car air conditioning switch located?

Car air conditioning switch is located on the car's center console. The A/C button is the switch for the air conditioning compressor, while for automatic air conditioning systems, the switch is the AUTO button. To activate air conditioning cooling, press the A/C or AUTO button, then adjust the fan speed and direction according to your needs. Below is relevant information about how air conditioning works: When the engine is running and the A/C switch is turned on, the electromagnetic clutch engages, transmitting engine power to the compressor. The compressor circulates compressed refrigerant to the evaporator, where the refrigerant vaporizes and absorbs heat to produce cold air. The blower then delivers this cooled air into the cabin.

Is it necessary to go to a 4S shop for new car maintenance?

It is recommended to go to a 4S shop for new car maintenance. New cars usually come with an initial maintenance period.

How to Deal with a Swollen Battery?

A swollen battery cannot be repaired, and repair is not recommended. It is advised to replace it directly. Below is additional information about batteries: 1. Hazards of a swollen battery: A swollen battery can easily lead to reverse polarity later on—meaning the positive terminal becomes negative, and the negative terminal becomes positive. This can cause the charger to burn out, damage the controller, and, most seriously, if the controller and charger's protective functions are not comprehensive enough, it may even result in a vehicle fire. 2. Causes of battery swelling: Battery swelling is one of the common causes of battery failure, often appearing as bulging on both sides. The main reasons are excessive charging or discharging currents, leading to a rapid rise in the battery's internal temperature, inadequate venting, and pressure buildup to a certain level, causing swelling or deformation. If a swollen battery is discovered, it should be repaired as soon as possible. During the repair process, the charging system's working condition should be checked to ensure the charging voltage and current are within reasonable limits, and that the generator and charging circuit are functioning properly.

How often should the tires on a Nissan Sylphy be replaced?

Under normal circumstances, the lifespan of tires is generally 3-5 years. However, in reality, the lifespan of tires is not fixed and can be judged from three aspects. Here is the relevant information about tire replacement for the Nissan Sylphy: 1. Tread wear approaching the wear indicator: The wear indicator height for general passenger car tires is 1.6 millimeters (this height is also the legally mandated minimum groove depth for tires), while the wear indicator height for load-bearing tires is 2.4 millimeters. 2. Tire damage such as cracks or bulges: Tire damage includes tread cracks, tread bulges, missing tread rubber, severe sidewall wear, and multiple punctures by foreign objects. Especially in the case of bulges, the tire is at risk of bursting at any time. As soon as any of these damages are noticed, the owner should promptly visit a professional tire shop to have the vehicle's tires inspected and replaced if necessary. 3. Tire age expiration: The main sign of tire aging is surface hardening, followed by the appearance of cracks. Aged tires lose their elasticity, and continued use can lead to tread deformation, posing a risk of tire blowout.
