The icons on the car dashboard refer to: 1. Routine indicator lights: Common ones include high/low beam indicator, seatbelt reminder, turn signal light, and parking brake indicator. Their function is to remind the driver of the status of various vehicle functions. 2. Warning indicator lights: Common ones include fuel indicator, engine oil indicator, and coolant indicator. Their purpose is to inform the driver about the vehicle's condition, usually indicating the fluid levels. 3. Fault indicator lights: Common ones include bulb failure indicator, cruise control indicator, gear shift indicator, and brake pad wear indicator. They are used to alert the driver about current vehicle malfunctions. When these indicators appear, the vehicle should be inspected at a repair shop promptly.

Why don't low-end cars have chrome strips?

Low-end cars do not have chrome strips to achieve greater cost savings in vehicle production. Here is an introduction to chrome strips: 1. Introduction: Chromium is a slightly bluish silver-white metal with a relative atomic mass of 51.99, density of 6.98~7.21g/cm3, and melting point of 1875~1920℃. 2. Performance: The chrome plating layer has good heat resistance. When heated below 500℃, its luster and hardness show no significant changes. It begins to oxidize and discolor at temperatures above 500℃, and its hardness starts to decrease above 700℃. 3. Classification: Due to the excellent properties of chrome plating, it is widely used as the outer layer of protective-decorative plating systems and functional coatings, maintaining an important position in the electroplating industry.

Does dropping something on the center console have any impact?

As long as there is no abnormal noise, it will not affect the car. The following is a related introduction about the car center console: 1. Introduction: The car center console is where the car's air conditioning, audio, and other comfort and entertainment devices are controlled. The car center console includes the central control door lock system, through which the driver can control the opening and closing of all car doors and the window lifting system. 2. Functions: The central control door lock system mainly has three functions: central control, speed control, and individual control. The driver can control all door lock switches. At the same time, when the driving speed reaches a certain level, the doors automatically lock. For each door, there is an independent switch, allowing individual control of one's own door.

Should the Asian Lion use 92 or 95 octane gasoline?

The Asian Lion uses 92 octane gasoline. The difference between 92 and 95 octane gasoline: Gasoline is a volatile, flammable hydrocarbon mixture liquid obtained from petroleum through distillation, cracking, or pyrolysis, used as fuel and appearing as a transparent liquid. 92 octane gasoline consists of 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane; 95 octane gasoline consists of 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. The main difference between the two lies in the purity of isooctane—the higher the purity, the stronger the gasoline's anti-knock properties. Consequences of mixing the two types of gasoline: Mixing the two types of gasoline will lower the isooctane index, failing to meet the engine's anti-knock requirements. This can easily lead to engine knocking, produce more carbon deposits, and cause rapid spark plug damage, ultimately resulting in engine failure.

What is the appropriate tire pressure for an SUV driving on highways?

SUV tire pressure standards are theoretically around 2.2-2.5 bar, but the specific appropriate tire pressure for an SUV can be found in the vehicle's user manual. Here is some relevant information about SUVs: 1. Models: The world's top SUVs are represented by the American Jeep Grand Cherokee, the British Land Rover Range Rover, and the German Mercedes-Benz G-Class, which have become one of the symbols of the wealthy class. 2. Product features: SUVs are characterized by strong power, off-road capability, spacious comfort, and excellent cargo and passenger functions. SUVs combine the comfort of luxury cars with the nature of off-road vehicles. SUVs are the hybrid descendants of sedans and off-road vehicles, and compared to their ancestors, SUVs have greater advantages.

Does Triggering Autonomous Emergency Braking Cause Damage to the Car?

Triggering autonomous emergency braking does not cause damage to the car. This is because any vehicle equipped with autonomous emergency braking, i.e., the AEB/ACC system, must have a brake override function; otherwise, it would not qualify as a compliant vehicle. The brake override system refers to a control program where, if both the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal are pressed simultaneously, or if the electronic control system detects or executes a braking action, pressing the accelerator pedal to the floor will have no effect. This program is automatically activated in semi-autonomous vehicles and works in conjunction with the AEB/ACC system, with the brake override function having no priority. The conditions for using the autonomous emergency braking system are as follows: Autonomous emergency braking comes into play during emergency braking situations. Developed on the basis of ABS, it is essentially the Brake Assist System (BAS), which determines whether to enter an emergency braking state by monitoring the force and speed at which the driver presses the brake pedal. If BAS determines that an emergency braking state is necessary, the system will increase braking force to reduce the braking distance. In other words, the initial stage of the automatic braking system requires the driver to notice an emergency and press the brake pedal to activate brake assist; otherwise, it will not function. The system assesses potential collisions by detecting vehicles ahead or possible obstacles. The autonomous emergency braking system will then issue a warning sound to alert the driver and prepare sufficient braking force in advance. As soon as the driver presses the brake pedal, the system will deliver maximum braking efficiency.
