What does 'view' mean in a car?

In a car, the 'view' button is used to switch between displays such as mileage and other data. The multifunction buttons on the steering wheel are typically designed for convenient driver operation, including volume adjustment and menu selection. Some models equipped with car phones also have call answer and microphone buttons on the steering wheel. Below are explanations of other buttons: 1. 'autohold' is the automatic parking function button; 2. 'sel' is the menu selection confirmation button, usually found on the multifunction steering wheel; 3. The 'ok' button has the exact same function as 'sel', with some cars using 'sel' and others using 'ok'; 4. The 'ac' button is the compressor switch, short for 'aircondition', which is the air conditioning cooling switch, as the car's heating system does not require the compressor.
I always feel that in a car, the word 'view' often reminds me of the rearview mirror, that little mirror that allows the driver to look behind. Over the years of driving, I've encountered many situations, such as when changing lanes or reversing, where the 'view' helped me spot cars following behind in advance, avoiding collisions. Once on a rainy day, the mirror was a bit blurry, and I almost missed a bicycle behind me. Luckily, wiping the mirror solved the problem. The 'view' isn't just about the mirror; it's also about keeping it clean and adjusting it to the right angle for clear visibility, making driving safer. I recommend that beginners develop the habit of checking the 'view' position before starting the car—it's especially useful in city traffic jams, reducing the risk of blind spots.
