What does the 3C mark on glass mean?
2 Answers
The 3C certification for glass is part of China's compulsory product certification system, serving as a fundamental safety certification. Methods for maintaining automotive windshield glass include: 1. Using specialized or appropriate wiper blades and replacing them promptly; 2. Keeping the glass surface clean; 3. Using automotive-specific glass cleaner. The functions of automotive glass are: 1. Protecting against wind and rain while reducing noise; 2. Minimizing wind resistance and improving airflow; 3. Ensuring the safety of vehicle occupants. The steps for adding windshield washer fluid are: 1. Activate the wiper switch, causing the washer fluid to spray from below the windshield; 2. Continue until the spray nozzles stop emitting fluid, then open the washer fluid reservoir cap and add fluid; 3. Reactivate the wiper switch to clear any remaining fluid; 4. Once no more fluid sprays out, add washer fluid and securely close the reservoir cap.
The 3C mark on the glass is actually the symbol of China Compulsory Certification. As an experienced driver with years behind the wheel, I place great importance on this. It certifies that the glass meets national safety standards, having undergone rigorous testing to ensure it won't cause injury when shattered in accidents and that its light transmittance meets requirements without affecting visibility. Without it, the glass might be made from substandard materials – seemingly fine for daily driving but dangerously fragile upon impact, with flying shards posing serious safety risks. I remember once helping a friend inspect a used car and noticing the absence of the 3C mark on the glass. Despite my advice against buying it, he went for the cheaper option, only to regret it deeply when a minor rear-end collision caused the glass to shatter and cut his hand. That's why I always check for this clear marking in the corners when buying a car or replacing glass – it's not just about compliance, but a matter of life responsibility. On the road, safety lies in the details; never overlook this small certification mark, as it brings both peace of mind and protection.
