The lever on the right side of the steering wheel is the control lever for the vehicle's wiper system. It can adjust the speed of the wipers, activate the washer fluid, and control the wiper's working frequency. Lifting it upwards activates the front wiper washer, while pressing the end button activates the rear wiper washer. Rotating it to the right enters the defogging mode, and releasing it resets the position. Additional information: The basic principle of a control lever is to convert the movement of the plastic lever into electronic information that a computer can process. Both sides of the car's steering wheel have control levers. Generally, the left control lever in most vehicles is primarily used to control the lights. Moving it up and down activates the vehicle's turn signals and parking lights, while pushing it forward and backward switches between the vehicle's high and low beams.

Should the Sylphy use 92 or 95 gasoline?

The Sylphy is specified to use gasoline with an octane rating of 92 or higher. In terms of power, this car is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, which has relatively lower power compared to turbocharged engines, making 92-octane gasoline sufficient. Precautions for using the fuel tank are as follows: Do not wait for the low fuel warning light to come on before refueling: Before driving, check the fuel gauge and calculate whether refueling is needed during the trip based on the distance and the fuel gauge reading. It is advisable to refuel in advance rather than waiting for the fuel warning light to come on. The fuel pump is located inside the fuel tank and operates at high temperatures during continuous use. Being immersed in fuel helps to cool it effectively. When the fuel warning light comes on, it indicates that the fuel level is below the fuel pump. Waiting until the light comes on to refuel each time can shorten the fuel pump's lifespan, and having too little fuel in the tank may even cause the fuel pump to burn out. Choose to refuel in the morning or evening: Generally, temperatures are lower in the morning and evening, and gasoline has a lower vaporization point. Therefore, it is better to refuel during these times. Gasoline expands when hot and contracts when cold, and it is charged by volume. At lower temperatures, gasoline has a relatively higher density, and the mass per unit volume also increases, allowing you to get more fuel for the same price. Avoid filling the tank completely when driving in the city: When driving in urban areas, there is no need to fill the tank completely. A full tank adds extra weight to the engine, increasing fuel consumption. Since refueling is convenient in the city, there is no need to fill the tank to its maximum capacity.

Why can't the door be opened from the outside after unlocking an Audi A6?

Audi A6 cannot open the door from the outside after unlocking for the following reasons: 1. Rear door cannot be opened: If the rear door cannot be opened, it may be due to the child safety lock being activated. It is recommended to turn off the child safety lock. If the issue persists, it could be caused by a detached linkage or a damaged lock mechanism. 2. Component aging: The motor inside the door lock assembly may have aged, leading to insufficient power, which prevents the unlocking motor's linkage lock pin from popping out. As a result, the exterior door handle may not engage properly. The solution is to replace the original imported door lock motor, replace the central door lock unit assembly/lock block, or for a simpler fix, directly replace the motor.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Haval H7 in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the Haval H7 is 65 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Haval H7 can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Haval H7 requires 92-octane gasoline, with a fuel consumption of 7.7 to 8.5L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can provide a driving range of approximately 765 to 844 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically done by observing the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, leaving some space between the safe fill level and the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.
