Adjustable headlight height refers to the ability to adjust the height of the headlights to obtain the optimal illumination distance, thereby avoiding potential hazards. This is a safety lighting feature that typically uses an electric motor to adjust the headlight height electronically, ensuring the best illumination distance and preventing dangers while driving. Below is an explanation of how adjustable headlight height works: 1. Based on the adjustment method, it is generally divided into manual and automatic types. Manual adjustment: The driver adjusts the headlight angle by turning a dial inside the car according to road conditions, such as setting a low angle when driving uphill or a high angle when driving downhill. Automatic adjustment: Cars equipped with automatic headlight adjustment feature several sensors on the body that detect the vehicle's dynamic balance and automatically adjust the lighting angle based on pre-set programs. 2. Adjustable headlight height usually comes with a manual adjustment knob inside the car, allowing the driver to freely adjust the headlight height. However, some high-end luxury cars feature automatic leveling adjustment, where the vehicle automatically adjusts the headlight height based on sensors without the need for manual controls.

What does the ECON display on the air conditioning panel mean?

The ECON mode in a car's air conditioning system is a specific setting that only takes effect when the air conditioning's cooling function is activated. The air conditioning compressor is driven by the engine and can consume up to 20% of the engine's power. When the ECON mode is enabled, the vehicle reduces the air conditioning's power consumption while maintaining its cooling effect, thereby improving fuel efficiency. Activating the ECON mode is straightforward: after turning on the air conditioning, simply press the "Econ" button. When the button's light is on, the cooling system is turned off, and only natural or warm air is circulated. Here's an introduction to the ECON mode in car air conditioning: Typically, the A/C symbol indicates the air conditioning's on/off status, while ECON only functions when the cooling is active, representing the air conditioning's economy mode. In this mode, the compressor still operates, but compared to the normal mode, the compressor's control point is adjusted. The compressor does not remain constantly engaged; instead, its start and stop points are controlled by the evaporator temperature. In normal mode, the compressor starts and stops between 2~4°C. In ECON mode, this range is increased to 8~10°C. The lower the temperature, the longer and harder the compressor works. Enabling ECON mode reduces the engine's power output and saves fuel. Functions of the car air conditioning system: Uses a refrigerant's continuous phase change cycle to achieve cooling; Removes dust, odors, smoke, and toxic gases from the car's interior, freshening the air and increasing humidity levels; Utilizes engine coolant, waste heat, or a burner's combustion heat as a heating source. The heater warms the air, which is then blown into the cabin by a fan to raise the outlet air temperature for heating purposes; Draws in fresh outside air for ventilation and air exchange, also helping to prevent windshield fogging. Precautions for using the air conditioning in the car: Avoid setting the temperature too low. A significant difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures can easily cause the driver to catch a cold, and excessively low temperatures may increase the risk of arthritis for passengers. Adjust the air vent direction. Based on the principle that cold air sinks and warm air rises, set the vents upward when cooling and downward when heating. Do not turn on the air conditioning immediately after the car has been exposed to the sun. After prolonged sun exposure, the interior temperature becomes very high. First, open the windows to ventilate and allow the hot air to escape before turning on the air conditioning.

Can I still drive on highways without ETC?

It is possible to drive on highways without ETC. According to the regulations of the State Council, starting from 2020, vehicles without ETC will not enjoy toll discounts. In the future, only one manual lane will be retained at highway toll stations, and tolls can only be paid through manual lanes. Additionally, newly installed ETC devices cannot be used on highways immediately; they need to be activated first. During free holiday periods, highways can still be used. For users who have already installed ETC, passing through ETC lanes will not incur charges. ETC charging principle: There will be one or more ETC lanes on highways. Through dedicated short-range microwave communication between the vehicle-mounted electronic tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station, and using computer networking technology for backend settlement with banks, the purpose of paying tolls without stopping at toll stations is achieved. All of this is based on the principle of "pass first, deduct later." Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Low-carbon, vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions and minimizing pollution; Cost-saving: Reduces vehicle wear and fuel consumption by decreasing the frequency of starts and brakes, and users can also enjoy a 5% discount on tolls; Improved efficiency: The theoretical efficiency of ETC lanes can be increased by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC faster, more advanced, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the interoperability of transportation cards in key city clusters will be basically achieved, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will significantly increase." It also set the goal of "achieving a 50% ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles by 2020" in the main indicators of the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development plan. More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and increasing the ETC usage rate for passenger vehicles, efforts will be made to promote ETC usage for trucks in the future. There will also be exploration of deep integration between ETC systems and smart transportation development directions such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-to-road coordination, providing comprehensive travel services for car owners. This means more application scenarios will support ETC usage.

Can I drive with the ABS light on?

ABS fault light is on, it is recommended not to continue driving, because the ABS light indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's anti-lock braking system. During emergency braking, if the wheels lock up, the vehicle may lose control and skid, making it difficult for the driver to slow down or adjust the vehicle's trajectory, posing significant safety risks. There are various states when the ABS light is on, with different causes and solutions depending on the state, as detailed below: State 1: ABS fault light stays on (most common). Cause 1: The ABS speed sensor's sensing part is covered by dirt, mud, or other contaminants, affecting the sensor's ability to detect the corresponding speed signal. This prevents the ABS computer from determining the speed and the wheel's slip rate, thus failing to issue appropriate commands to adjust braking. Solution: Clean the dirt from the speed sensor and adjust the gap between the speed sensor and the signal ring to restore normal function. Cause 2: Poor signal due to loose connections in the system wiring or poor contact in the ABS relay, leading to system failure. Solution: Check the wiring connections and reconnect any loose parts. State 2: ABS warning light intermittently turns on but turns off during acceleration. Cause: When multiple vehicle electrical devices are used, the battery voltage drops below 10.5V. As the engine speed increases and voltage rises, the ABS indicator light turns off. The ABS system's power supply voltage is too low, possibly due to poor terminal contact or grounding issues. Solution: Check the battery's specific gravity; inspect the charging system; examine the power supply (e.g., voltage relay or poor power contact). State 3: ABS warning light stays on after engine start and only turns off when the engine is turned off (IGFF). Cause: Poor grounding contact in the ABS hydraulic valve body; poor contact in the ABS hydraulic valve body's wiring connector; ABS computer malfunction. Solution: Loosen the grounding screw of the hydraulic valve body, then retighten it, cleaning the contact surface if necessary; check if the connector gap has widened; replace the ABS or ABS/ASR computer. State 4: ABS warning light turns on during high-speed driving. Cause: During high-speed driving, the ABS computer detects a significant difference between the rear and front wheel speed signals; incorrect tire or wheel rim specifications. Solution: Refer to the vehicle's tire and wheel rim specifications, as indicated on the label near the fuel tank cap. State 5: ABS warning light intermittently turns on. Cause: Improper adjustment of the brake light switch; poor internal contact in the brake light. Solution: Start the engine, press the brake pedal, push the brake switch linkage down with your finger, then release the brake pedal to complete the self-setting position; replace the brake light switch if necessary.
