What does 'list' on the steering wheel mean?
2 Answers
List on the steering wheel refers to all lists or inventories. Basic concept of the steering wheel: A wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of cars, ships, airplanes, etc. However, the original designer of the steering wheel could not foresee that in today's world where cars are getting faster, the steering wheel has become the primary cause of driver fatalities in the event of an accident. Origin of the steering wheel: The steering wheel initially installed on steam cars by the inventor of the automobile was mounted on a vertical steering column, which had the disadvantage of being inconvenient for the driver to operate and obstructing the view. Correct way to hold the steering wheel: If you imagine the steering wheel as a clock face, the correct hand position is to place the left hand between the 9 and 10 o'clock positions and the right hand between the 3 and 4 o'clock positions. In the event of a collision, this posture provides better support for the body.
The LIST button on the steering wheel actually controls the multimedia menu. I've driven several cars equipped with this button. Pressing it brings up the song list or radio favorites on the instrument panel, allowing you to select music without taking your eyes off the road or poking at the center screen—just a flick of your left thumb does the trick. Last week, a colleague even complimented the humanized design when I gave them a ride, mentioning how dangerous it was to reach for the screen in their older car. Note that functions may vary across models: American cars often use it for track skipping, while German cars might switch to driving mode lists. Mastering this button is genuinely convenient, but beginners are advised to familiarize themselves with its functions while parked to avoid fumbling and compromising safety while driving.
