What does the REST function mean in a car?
1 Answers
REST in a car refers to the residual heat function, which utilizes the engine's residual warmth to continue providing warm air inside the vehicle for up to half an hour after the engine is turned off, after which it automatically shuts off. This function is particularly suitable for short-term parking and engine shutdown in winter, helping to maintain the interior temperature and prevent rapid cooling. When restarting the vehicle, there's no need to turn on the air conditioning system to reheat the interior. Additionally, there are several other buttons in a car: 1. The SEL button is a menu selection confirmation button, usually located on the multifunction steering wheel; 2. The AC button is the compressor switch, which controls the air conditioning cooling; 3. The MUTE button is for instant silencing; 4. The MODE button is for switching between different modes.
