Car recirculation and fresh air modes have the following main differences: 1. Operation principle: Recirculation mode closes the airflow channel between the interior and exterior. Without the fan running, there is no airflow circulation. When the fan operates, it draws air only from inside the vehicle, creating internal air circulation. Fresh air mode uses the fan to draw outside air into the cabin, with airflow coming from outside. Even without the fan, driving motion still draws outside air into the vehicle. 2. Functions: Recirculation effectively blocks external dust and harmful gases while maintaining cabin temperature. Fresh air mode allows breathing of outside air. 3. Usage scenarios: Use recirculation during rush hour traffic, in tunnels, or on dusty roads. During prolonged highway driving when cabin air feels stale, switch to fresh air mode.

They are mainly used to indicate the width and height of the car during driving in conditions such as dusk, cloudy days, rain, or fog, helping other vehicles determine relative positions and vehicle size during encounters or overtaking. Typically, outline lights are white at the front and red at the rear. Usage Regulations of Outline Lights: If a motor vehicle breaks down or is involved in a traffic accident on the road, obstructing traffic and making it difficult to move, the hazard warning lights should be turned on as required, and a warning sign should be placed 50-100 meters behind the vehicle.

What is an Electronic Quick Shift System?

An electronic quick shift system is a device installed on the gear lever that can receive signals. It then analyzes the actual engine speed through the computer to make decisions, enabling automatic throttle blipping during downshifts for smoother power transitions. Some car models currently utilize this system, which is primarily configured on the gear lever to receive and transmit electronic signals. For example, BMW models equipped with this system allow drivers to experience seamless power delivery during rapid gear changes. While driving, the computer automatically analyzes and performs throttle blipping, significantly reducing the driver's manual input.
