What does Engine MAX mean?
1 Answers
"MAX" means "maximum." When the MAX button is illuminated on a car's air conditioning system, it represents the strongest cooling mode. For example, after turning on the A/C (air conditioning) switch and then pressing MAX, the air conditioning will activate the strongest cooling mode with the blower operating at maximum airflow. Its purpose is to lower the temperature inside the car as quickly as possible. Here are some related details: Label: The term "max" can be seen not only on air conditioning control buttons but also on various fluid reservoirs in the engine compartment. Here, "max" also carries the meaning of "maximum" or "highest," and some may simply use "M" to denote it. Upper Limit: The "max" marking on fluid reservoirs indicates the upper limit of the fluid level. The highest position of the fluid level should not exceed the horizontal line corresponding to "max." Naturally, where there is an upper limit, there is also a lower limit. "Low" (or sometimes "min" in some cars) represents the lower limit, indicating the minimum fluid level position. This means the fluid level should not fall below the horizontal line corresponding to "low." These markings are most noticeable on the overflow tank (i.e., the radiator). The optimal fluid level is between the upper and lower limits.
