The MENU button in the car is the menu button. Here is a related introduction to other car buttons: 1. The MENU button usually appears on the multifunction steering wheel control and center console control. Pressing the MENU button will open the corresponding menu. For example, each press of the MENU button on the multifunction steering wheel will switch the information center on the dashboard to a different menu page, allowing you to make adjustments as needed. 2. The "SEL" button is the menu selection confirmation button, typically found on the multifunction steering wheel. 3. The "AC" button is the compressor switch, which is the air conditioning cooling switch. 4. "MUTE" is the mute button, allowing for instant muting. 5. "MODE" is the mode switching button. 6. "SET" on the multifunction steering wheel is the cruise control function button.

As an experienced car owner who has driven many models, the menu button in the car is essentially the main gateway to the central console. Pressing it takes you to various settings interfaces, such as adjusting audio volume, selecting radio stations, or entering navigation destinations. Personally, I use it most frequently to adjust air conditioning airflow modes or check vehicle information like tire pressure and fuel consumption data. When getting familiar with a new car, I recommend exploring it thoroughly—some vehicles even allow you to configure driving assistance features like lane departure warnings through the menu. Safety always comes first, so avoid operating these complex menu systems while driving—pull over to a safe spot before tinkering with them. In short, it’s the key to personalizing your beloved car, but remember to review your owner’s manual first, as designs may vary across different brands.

I use the menu button quite frequently in daily driving, especially during long trips when I rely on it to quickly switch music playlists or set cruise control parameters. I remember once during a mountain road trip, it helped me pull up the map navigation to avoid getting lost. New drivers might find the menu options overwhelming at first, but with gradual exploration, they'll get the hang of it – it allows you to connect Bluetooth for phone calls or display fuel consumption reports. Important reminder: When operating the menu button, ensure your eyes don't stray from the road for too long, as safe driving takes top priority. Veteran drivers' advice is to preset frequently used functions in advance to minimize distractions while driving. Since each automaker's design details differ, experimenting with it can uncover new delights.

What causes the sound of water entering the engine?

If the coolant is insufficient or the radiator is clogged, it can create a cavity inside the heater core. When coolant flows through this area and impacts the radiator walls, it produces a water-flowing sound. A bubbling sound, similar to blowing air through a straw submerged in water: For the power steering pump, this sound is commonly associated with the expansion tank or the mechanical hydraulic power steering pump. There are two typical scenarios where the hydraulic power steering pump makes this noise: one is a power steering fluid leak, which is common in older vehicles over time. When the fluid level drops and air gets mixed in, this sound occurs. In such cases, topping up the power steering fluid usually resolves the issue. The sound of flowing water: This sound is often heard from the heater core. It’s rare for the engine’s internal coolant passages to produce such a noise because, first, the engine’s operational noise typically drowns out the sound of flowing water, making it difficult to hear from the driver’s seat. Second, the engine’s internal cooling system is usually free of air, with coolant flowing tightly along the cooling system pipes without any water impact, so it’s unlikely to generate a water-flowing sound.

In which year did the National IV emission standards begin to be implemented?

National IV emission standards began to be implemented on July 1, 2010, and were fully implemented nationwide until July 1, 2017, when National V standards took over. Therefore, cars produced between 2011 and 2017 were generally compliant with National IV emission standards. However, this is not entirely accurate, as the timing of emission standard implementation varied across different regions in the country. How many more years can National IV vehicles be driven? 1. Implementation of National V emission standards: Based on past experience, when National V standards were implemented, National II vehicles were phased out (i.e., forced to be scrapped). Therefore, when National VI standards are implemented, National III vehicles are likely to be phased out as well, while National IV vehicles will not be phased out until after National VII standards are implemented. The timeline for the introduction and implementation of National VII standards is unknown, but it is certain that it will be a long time from now. 2. National VI standards are very strict: After all, National VI standards have just begun to be implemented and are not yet fully enforced nationwide. Moreover, the current National VI standards are already the strictest emission standards globally, so the introduction and implementation of National VII standards will undoubtedly take a very long time. Therefore, National IV vehicles should be able to be used until their normal retirement without worrying about being forced to be scrapped due to the implementation of emission standards.

What is the ignition point of engine oil?

The ignition point of engine oil, also known as the flash point, is generally around 200°C. Under vacuum conditions, the boiling point of gasoline is approximately 850°C. The boiling point and ignition point of engine oil vary depending on the specific oil model, which is usually labeled on the oil bottle. Vehicle owners should pay attention to this when using engine oil. Precautions for using engine oil: 1. Choose high-quality oil: Selecting premium engine oil can enhance vehicle performance and provide better lubrication. Full synthetic oils not only protect the engine and reduce oil change frequency but also save costs. Additionally, choose different oil viscosity grades according to the season: opt for higher viscosity oils in summer and oils with better fluidity in winter. 2. Monitor replacement intervals: The oil change cycle isn't fixed and depends on the owner's driving environment and habits. Typically, full synthetic oil should be changed every 10,000 kilometers, but harsh driving conditions may shorten this interval. Owners should adjust oil change timing accordingly. 3. Oil level should be slightly below the dipstick mark: When adding oil, control the quantity carefully. Excessive oil increases crankshaft resistance, reduces engine output power, and may lead to oil burning. It's best to keep the oil level slightly below the dipstick mark.

From which day does the first maintenance period start?

The first maintenance date of a car is calculated from the day of vehicle pickup. The running period after pickup is generally around 3 months or 3,000 kilometers. Different car brands have varying requirements, which can be referenced in the manual. More information about the first car maintenance is as follows: 1. After a new car is delivered, the 4S store usually requires the owner to perform the first maintenance within 3,000 kilometers. In fact, the car manufacturer requires the owner to complete the first maintenance within 5,000 kilometers. Therefore, it should not exceed 5,000 kilometers before the first maintenance. 2. If the car is driven infrequently and it takes a long time to reach 3,000 kilometers, then the first maintenance should be done within three months. When purchasing the car, sales personnel often mention how many free maintenance services are included. In fact, the first maintenance is already free and doesn't count as a 'gift.' If three maintenance services are offered, then including the first one, there would be four free maintenance services in total. 3. For the first maintenance, changing the engine oil and oil filter is sufficient. If the 4S store suggests other paid maintenance items, they can be declined. Of course, free services like checking tire pressure and ensuring lights are functioning properly must be performed.

Do You Need to Press the Clutch When Slowing Down a Manual Transmission Car?

When slowing down a manual transmission car, you should press the clutch. The most correct method is to first press the brake to reduce speed, then press the clutch and quickly shift to a lower gear. Remember, the first step is to press the brake, as this is the fastest way to reduce speed. However, avoid pressing the brake too hard at once to prevent the engine from stalling. Functions of the Clutch: Gradually increase the driving force of the car for a smooth start; temporarily separate the engine and transmission for gear shifting; prevent overload of the transmission system; reduce torsional vibration shocks from the engine, extending the lifespan of transmission gears. Working Principle of the Clutch: When the inner ring is fixed, the outer ring can rotate freely in the clockwise direction without locking the wedge block; when the outer ring rotates counterclockwise, the wedge block locks, preventing the outer ring from rotating. Precautions When Pressing the Clutch While Slowing Down: If you need to slow down while driving, press the brake first. Avoid pressing the clutch with your left foot while braking with your right foot, as sudden loss of traction on slippery roads can easily cause skidding. Developing good driving habits is crucial for your safety. If the car is traveling at high speed and the driver presses both the brake and the clutch simultaneously, the car may suddenly accelerate due to the disconnection of the engine's resistance. This means the driver needs to press the brake harder to control the speed.

Can a newly purchased car with temporary license plates drive on highways?

Since temporary license plates are the only legal permit for driving before the official plates are issued, as long as the car is equipped with temporary plates, it can drive normally on both highways and local roads. However, it's important to note that temporary plates usually come with regional restrictions, and the car cannot be driven beyond the designated area; otherwise, heavy penalties may apply if caught. Below are the relevant details: 1. Passing through toll stations with temporary plates: When entering a highway toll station, simply use the manual lane to take a card (or an automatic card dispenser). Upon exiting the highway, return the card to the staff and pay the fee. The toll card contains an electronic chip that calculates the time, distance, and toll rate for the highway journey. 2. Can temporary plates be used in other regions? Only the specific "cross-administrative district temporary license plates" are allowed for inter-province travel. Temporary plates have time and area limitations. For regular car owners, temporary plates can be divided into the following two categories: (1) Administrative district temporary plates (sky blue background with black characters and black borders), also known as city temporary plates. Vehicles with these plates are only permitted to drive within the designated administrative district and are not allowed to leave the province. The validity period is 15 days. (2) Cross-administrative district temporary plates (brown-yellow background with black characters and black borders), also known as national temporary plates. Only vehicles with these plates are allowed to travel across provinces. The validity period is 30 days.
