Here are the methods to adjust the rearview mirrors to their optimal positions: 1. Left rearview mirror adjustment: Place the horizon line at the center line of the mirror, then adjust the edge of the car body to occupy 1/4 of the mirror image for best results. 2. Right rearview mirror adjustment: Since the driver's seat is on the left side, it's more difficult for the driver to grasp the situation on the right side of the car. Therefore, when adjusting the vertical position of the right rearview mirror, the ground area should be larger, occupying about 2/3 of the mirror's range. The horizontal position should also be adjusted so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the mirror's range for optimal results. 3. Central rearview mirror adjustment: Horizontally adjust the mirror so that its left edge just shows your right ear. For the vertical position, place the distant horizon at the center of the mirror, then adjust left and right to position the image of your right ear just at the left edge of the mirror for best results.

What to do if the ETC adhesive is not strong enough and falls off?

If the ETC falls off, it cannot be used anymore. You need to take the original vehicle, the ETC device, and the bound bank card to the ETC device installation location to reactivate the device. The ETC installation process is as follows: Upon receiving the device, first check whether the ETC card and the electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU, and the red light will briefly turn on. The OLED screen will display "Label Invalid" and "Please Insert Card," indicating that the device is functioning normally. Clean the windshield to ensure the glass surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then peel off the adhesive backing film on the OBU and attach it to the installation position. Press firmly with your hand for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front side facing the driver and the back side facing the windshield. The chip should be inserted into the OBU device.

Does Parking Surveillance Damage the Battery?

Parking surveillance does not harm the battery, but it may cause the car battery to drain. More details about parking surveillance are as follows: 1. Currently, dash cams with parking surveillance function on the market are powered in two ways: by connecting to the car battery or by using the built-in battery of the dash cam. For car battery power supply, it can be further divided into OBD port power supply, ACC fuse box power supply, and reading light connection to the fuse box power supply, which means connecting to different constant power sources in the car. Even after the car is turned off, the parking surveillance function of the dash cam connected to the car's constant power can still operate normally. 2. If the car is not driven for more than a week, it is recommended to unplug the power connector of the dash cam to prevent the battery from being completely drained and affecting the car's startup. If the car is parked for only 2-3 days without driving, the dash cam will not deplete the car battery's power.

How to Solve ETC Malfunctions?

ETC card malfunctions may occur due to the following reasons: 1. Poor contact of the ETC card. You can try unplugging and reinserting the card, which should resolve the issue. 2. Driving too fast in the ETC lane, causing the channel reading device to fail to read the card successfully. When passing through an ETC channel, the speed should be below 20km/h to ensure the ETC card information is read normally. 3. OBU device malfunction or internal battery failure, leading to the inability to read the ETC card information. If the problem persists after unplugging and reinserting the ETC card, you need to visit an ETC service point for inspection or device replacement. 4. After replacing the vehicle's front windshield, failing to reactivate the device at a service point, resulting in the ETC card not functioning properly. Note: Daily use requires proper care of the ETC electronic tag to avoid water exposure, moisture, and strong magnetic interference.
