ETC device installation method is: 1. Purchase the ETC device, check if all components are complete, and review the installation manual; 2. Determine the installation orientation of the ETC device, with the solar panel facing outward; 3. Peel off the adhesive backing on the device, align the solar panel with the vehicle's front windshield, and press firmly to ensure secure attachment; 4. Install the device at the center top of the front windshield without obstructing the driver's normal view. It should be adhered in one go and not removed for reattachment; 5. Insert the ETC card to activate the device. Upon hearing a beep and seeing the indicator light turn on, the device is activated, and installation is complete.

I've installed ETC devices several times as a frequent highway driver, and found the process actually quite straightforward. First, prepare your ETC kit including the small square OBU unit and matching card. Choose a flat spot on the windshield, typically the upper left or right corner near the rearview mirror, ensuring it doesn't obstruct your view. Thoroughly clean the glass surface with alcohol wipes, let it dry, then peel off the adhesive backing and firmly press for 20 seconds. Next, insert the card to activate the device automatically. Test it at a toll gate - if the green light comes on, you're set. Avoid installing on tinted areas to prevent signal interference; use supplementary suction cups if needed for stability. Regularly check the adhesive tape to prevent detachment during high-speed driving. Done properly, ETC not only saves tollbooth queues but also reduces fuel waste.

How far can a BMW drive with an overheated engine?

Engine overheating means you should not continue driving. Causes of engine overheating in a car include radiator leaks, cooling fan failure, insufficient coolant, thermostat failure, etc. An overheated engine will display a red thermometer symbol on the dashboard. When the water temperature warning light comes on, the correct actions are as follows: 1. Idle and park: Do not turn off the engine, open the hood, turn on the heater to dissipate heat as quickly as possible, and if possible, park the car in a shaded area. 2. Check: Inspect the radiator hoses for leaks, then check if the coolant is sufficient. If no coolant is available in the car, you can temporarily use mineral water as a substitute, but remember to replace it with new coolant afterward. 3. Coolant: Do not add coolant immediately. As physics teaches us, heat causes expansion and cold causes contraction. Boiling water in a sealed container generates pressure. If you open the radiator cap immediately after the water boils, the internal pressure can cause the hot water to spray out, potentially causing burns.

What is the difference between the small rear windows of Maybach?

In the position of the rear door quarter windows of the two cars, the rear door quarter window of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class is connected to the door, while the quarter window of the Maybach is connected to the body. When the door is opened, the quarter window remains on the body, so if the quarter window is on the door, it is not a Maybach. Other differences between Maybach and the S-Class are as follows: 1. Difference one: On the C-pillar behind the quarter window, the Maybach features a distinctive 'M' logo, which the Mercedes-Benz S-Class does not have. However, some S-Class owners may add a badge here. 2. Difference two: The wheels used on the Maybach and the Mercedes-Benz S-Class are also different. The Maybach uses 'disc-style' wheels, while the S-Class uses multi-spoke wheels. 3. Difference three: The front grilles of the two models can also be distinguished. The Maybach's grille features vertical stripes and has the 'Maybach' brand logo on chrome strips, making it easy to identify. In contrast, the S-Class grille uses three horizontal stripes with one vertical stripe in the middle. 4. Difference four: In terms of seating, the Maybach adopts a 2+2 seating layout, while the S-Class uses a 2+3 layout. 5. Difference five: The Maybach is also longer than the S-Class, with a body length of 5466mm compared to the S-Class's 5283mm.
