Side detection system unavailable indicates a malfunction in the side blind spot detection system. While it does not affect driving safety, it requires diagnosis and repair at a 4S shop using diagnostic equipment to identify the fault code. Below are specific details about automotive radar: 1. Overview: Automotive radar, as the name suggests, refers to radar systems used in cars or other ground motor vehicles. It encompasses various radar types based on different technologies (such as laser, ultrasonic, and microwave). 2. Functions: Automotive radar serves different purposes (like obstacle detection, collision prediction, and adaptive cruise control) and operates on varying principles. Microwave radar holds significant commercial importance in automotive radar systems.

Why does the wiper produce a misty effect on rainy days?

The wiper producing a misty effect on rainy days could be due to oily substances on the glass surface forming an oil film, causing water droplets to disperse in a misty pattern. It could also be because the wiper is old. You can try polishing it yourself, which might improve the effect to some extent, but it is recommended to replace the wiper with a new one directly. The wiper, also known as a windscreen wiper or windshield wiper, is a device used to wipe off raindrops and dust attached to the vehicle's windshield, improving the driver's visibility and enhancing driving safety. The main reason wipers often fail to clean thoroughly is invisible dirt on the glass: 1. The car is parked downwind of a central air conditioning cooling tower, where water particles torn apart by the cooling tower fall on the glass, forming small white spots that are hard to remove completely after drying; 2. The sticky residue of insects crushed during long-distance high-speed driving.

What is the weight of the Wuling Hongguang body?

The Wuling Hongguang body weighs approximately 1200 kilograms. The Wuling Hongguang is the first independently developed crossover product between commercial vehicles and passenger vehicles launched by SAIC-GM-Wuling. The dimensions of the vehicle are 4305mm in length, 1680mm in width, and 1750mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2720mm. In terms of safety features, this vehicle is equipped with dual airbags, force-limiting seat belts, LED high-mounted brake lights, rear parking sensors, rear window heating and defrosting function, automatic locking function, and a remote key with electronic anti-theft system and automatic car-finding function. In terms of appearance, the vehicle adopts the currently very popular double-U front face design and a three-dimensional vertical waterfall-style chrome-plated grille, which not only makes the front part look more fashionable and dynamic but also inherits some characteristics of the GM family.

Where is the cabin air filter located in the Volvo XC60?

The cabin air filter in the Volvo XC60 is located beneath the glove compartment. First, unscrew the two screws under the glove compartment and remove the cover below it. Then, pry open the plastic trim panel on the passenger side of the center console and lift the felt layer to access and remove the cabin air filter. To replace the filter, simply take out the old one, insert the new cabin air filter, and then reassemble the plastic trim panel and the glove compartment cover in reverse order. The Volvo XC60 is an SUV model under the Volvo car company, with body dimensions of 4688mm in length, 1902mm in width, 1658mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2865mm.

What is the appropriate tire pressure for the Haval H6?

The normal tire pressure range for the Haval H6 is 2.4-2.5bar. Due to seasonal factors, the tire pressure can be appropriately increased by 0.2bar in winter and decreased by 0.1bar in summer. This data is based on the international GBT2978-2008 standard. The Haval H6's tire pressure monitoring system is passive, relying on the vehicle's ABS balance control, and only displays under-inflation when there is a leak. To check the tire pressure, first prepare a tire pressure gauge, locate the original tire pressure label, press the gauge onto the tire valve to measure and read the value, and remember to replace the valve cap after measurement. Generally, a tire pressure above 2.8bar is considered too high, and below 2.0bar is too low. Hazards of over-inflation: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; overstretches the tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving. Hazards of under-inflation: Increased friction with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; makes the steering wheel heavy and prone to deviation, compromising driving safety; increases movement in various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; reduces the functionality of cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage and excessive friction with the rim, damaging the bead area and causing abnormal wear; multiplies friction with the ground, sharply raising tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing strength. High-speed driving may result in a tire blowout. If the tire pressure monitoring indicator light comes on (a yellow symbol with an irregular circle, no seal on top, four small spikes below, and an exclamation mark inside), there are generally three possible reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually alarms when below 1.8bar or above 3.0bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the system records the previous data, causing the indicator light to come on. Simply reset the tire pressure. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is installed inside the tire and connected to the inflation valve. If the sensor is damaged during driving, the tire pressure warning light will come on. For sensor damage, only replacement with a new part is possible.

What is the W gear?

W gear is the snow mode, which is used when starting on slippery surfaces. It generally controls the torque in second gear, providing less starting power than first gear to avoid wheel slippage. Many cars are equipped with options for sport mode and snow mode, allowing drivers to choose the appropriate control mode based on environmental requirements to balance driving pleasure and safety. Gear introduction: 1. P gear (Parking): When parking, the gear lever must be shifted into P position; 2. R gear (Reverse): Reverse gear; 3. N gear (Neutral): Neutral gear, which can be used during startup or when towing; 4. D gear (Drive): Forward gear, place the gear lever in D position for normal driving; 5. S gear (Sport mode): In this gear, the transmission can shift freely, but the shifting timing is delayed to keep the engine at high RPMs for a longer time, increasing vehicle power; 6. L gear (Low): In this gear, the transmission stays in first gear without upshifting, suitable for use on slopes or providing some braking function during downhill driving.

How to Deal with Car Fogging?

Solutions for car fogging: 1. Open the windows: Fogging inside the car is caused by the temperature difference between the inside and outside. Opening the windows for ventilation will naturally dissipate the fog in a short time; 2. Turn on the air conditioner first, then switch to the heater after the fog clears: Cars come with a defogging function. Turning on the air conditioner quickly lowers the temperature of the front windshield, preventing fog from condensing, while the heater ensures the driver doesn't feel cold; 3. Wipe with a cloth: Many drivers commonly use this method while driving—wiping the fog off the windshield with a cloth to maintain clear visibility; 4. Use a defogging agent: Dilute dish soap with water in a 1:6 ratio, then apply it evenly to the windows with a cloth or spray bottle. Once dry, wipe it off with a towel.
