Introduction to the use of lights when driving in the rain is as follows: 1. Use parking lights when the rain is light: The use of lights when driving in the rain is very particular. At the beginning of the rain, the sky is relatively dark, but visibility is still good. At this time, parking lights should be used. 2. Turn on headlights or front fog lights when the rain is heavy: When the rain is heavier, the rainwater itself will obstruct the view, and the water on the road will be splashed up by the rolling tires of the vehicle in front, forming a mist that will also greatly affect visibility. At this time, headlights or front fog lights should be turned on. Some people think that turning on fog lights will dazzle the vehicle in front, but as long as the fog lights are designed reasonably, this will not happen. Fog lights are not designed for illumination; their beams are very scattered, so they appear bright but not dazzling. 3. Turn on rear fog lights during heavy rain: Rear fog lights should only be turned on when the rain is very heavy. The red tail lights themselves have very good penetration, and ordinary heavy rain cannot block the light of the rear fog lights. The brightness of rear fog lights is very high, designed to penetrate thick fog. Using them in ordinary rainy weather can easily dazzle the vehicle behind. If the driver of the vehicle behind is affected, then one's own safety cannot be guaranteed.

What does ADS mean on a car?

ADS on a car refers to the Adjustable Damping System, which is a type of adjustable shock absorber. This system allows the driver to adjust the stiffness of the shock absorbers based on personal preference, road conditions, and usage scenarios to meet different needs. For example, when the driver wants to enjoy the thrill of driving, they can choose a stiffer mode for a sporty driving experience, or opt for a softer mode for a more comfortable ride. ADS works by varying the damping force of the shock absorbers—providing higher damping force in stiffer modes to enhance stability during aggressive driving, and lower damping force in softer modes for a smoother and more comfortable ride.

How to Use the 12V Power Outlet in a Car?

How to use the 12V power outlet in a car: Simply connect a cable with a cigarette lighter plug to the cigarette lighter socket to draw power. The 12V power outlet in a car is an interface that provides power to external electrical devices, with an output voltage of 12V. The current varies depending on the vehicle model. The 12V power outlet can be used to connect external devices such as car phones, portable DVDs, and mobile phone chargers. Precautions for using the 12V power outlet in a car: 1. Charging voltages for electronic devices vary, so it's important to understand the specific charging standards; 2. When drawing power from the cigarette lighter, pay attention to the power and current ratings of the electrical device to avoid safety hazards.

Can National V Emission Standard Vehicles Still Be Registered in Henan Province?

Currently, National V emission standard vehicles can still be registered in Henan. Here is some relevant information about China's automotive emission standards: 1. Introduction to Automotive Emission Standards: Automotive emission standards refer to regulations on the content of harmful gases emitted from vehicle exhaust, such as CO (carbon monoxide), HC+NOx (hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides), and PM (particulate matter, soot). 2. Current Status of China's Automotive Emission Standards: China has its own national conditions, and the background for implementing emission standards differs from that of Europe. The most directly involved issue is the urban-rural disparity, so China should have its own standards. The pollutant emission limits in China's motor vehicle pollutant emission standards are generally equivalent to the EU emission standards, hence the similar terminology is used domestically, but there are still certain technical differences between the two.

Can a new car drive on the highway directly?

A new car can drive on the highway, but it is advisable to avoid sudden acceleration, sudden deceleration, full load, and aggressive driving behaviors. Here are some related introductions about driving on the highway: 1. Introduction to the highway: The highway refers to high-speed driving, which is compared to medium and low speeds. In an environment where low speed is the mainstream, low speed is considered normal or standard speed, while in an environment where medium speed is the mainstream, medium speed is considered normal or standard speed. 2. Precautions for driving on the highway: When driving on the highway, it is important to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front. When the speed is above 100km/h, keep a distance of more than 100 meters. There are distance confirmation signs on the highway, which can be used to confirm the distance. Stay away from trucks; when driving at high speed, do not drive side by side with trucks or follow closely behind them. Try to overtake trucks. Stay in the middle lane; the leftmost lane on the highway is the overtaking lane, while large trucks generally stay in the rightmost lane.

5W30 or 5W40 for All-Season Engine Oil?

Different vehicles require different engine oils. American, Japanese, and Korean cars generally perform best with 5W-30 oil, while German cars typically use 5W-40. Both 5W30 and 5W40 are all-season oils with similar cold-start performance. However, 5W-40 has higher viscosity than 5W-30, providing better protection under high-temperature conditions. Here is additional information: 1. Winter oils: Winter oil grades include 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, 20W, and 25W. The "W" stands for winter, and the lower the number before it, the lower the oil's viscosity at low temperatures, the better its cold-flow performance, and the lower the minimum applicable temperature. 2. Summer oils: Summer oil grades include 20, 30, 40, and 50. The higher the number, the higher the viscosity and the higher the maximum applicable temperature. 3. All-season oils: All-season oil grades include 5W-20, 5W-30, 5W-40, 5W-50, 10W-20, 10W-30, 10W-40, 10W-50, 15W-20, 15W-30, 15W-40, 15W-50, 20W-20, 20W-30, 20W-40, and 20W-50. The lower the winter number (indicating a lower minimum temperature), and the higher the summer number, the wider the applicable temperature range.
