Here are the detailed instructions for adjusting rearview mirror positions: 1. Adjusting the rearview mirror buttons: You can use the electric buttons inside the car to adjust them. The buttons are located on the left side of the steering wheel and can be used to adjust both the left and right rearview mirrors. 2. Adjusting the center rearview mirror: Adjust the left and right positions so that the left edge of the mirror just cuts to the right ear of the image in the mirror, and adjust the up and down positions so that the distant horizon is placed in the center of the mirror. The key points for adjusting the center rearview mirror are to place the horizon in the middle horizontally and the ear on the left. Place the distant horizon along the center line of the center rearview mirror, then move it left or right so that the image of the right ear is just at the left edge of the mirror. 3. Adjusting the left rearview mirror: For the up and down positions, place the distant horizon in the center, and for the left and right positions, adjust so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the mirror's area. The key points for adjusting the left rearview mirror are to place the horizon along the center line of the mirror and adjust the edge of the car body to occupy 1/4 of the mirror's image. 4. Adjusting the right rearview mirror: Because the driver's seat is on the left, it is not as easy for the driver to grasp the situation on the right side of the car. Additionally, due to the need for roadside parking sometimes, the right rearview mirror should leave a larger ground area when adjusting the up and down positions, occupying about 2/3 of the mirror. As for the left and right positions, adjust so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the mirror's area. The key points for adjusting the right rearview mirror are to place the horizon at the 2/3 position of the mirror and adjust the edge of the car body to occupy 1/4 of the mirror's image.

As a driving instructor, I always emphasize that adjusting the rearview mirrors is for safety first. When seated in the driver's seat, keep your body upright without leaning. First, adjust the interior rearview mirror so that it fully covers the entire rear windshield view, enabling real-time observation of vehicles behind you. Then adjust the left side mirror: without moving your body, just a slight view of the rear corner of the car is enough, leaving more angle for the side and rear road to minimize blind spots. The right side mirror is similar but with a wider angle to avoid missing corners when reversing. Remember, blind spots at high speeds can lead to accidents, so take a minute to check mirror positions before each drive. With practice, this vigilance will become second nature. It's best to practice adjusting in an open area to avoid fumbling while driving.

What is the safe capacity of a car fuel tank?

Generally, the safe capacity of a car fuel tank is 95% of its actual capacity. The methods to open the fuel tank are as follows: Mechanical key opening: This is commonly seen in some rugged off-road vehicles. Nowadays, most family cars do not use mechanical keys for opening the fuel tank because it is relatively complicated to operate. In-car switch method: The location of the in-car fuel tank switch varies among different car models. It might be found on the floor to the left of the driver's seat, on the left front door panel, or on the center console, usually marked with a fuel pump symbol. However, it's important to note that the in-car switch can easily lead to the driver forgetting to turn off the engine before refueling. Therefore, drivers should always remember to turn off the engine before refueling. Press-to-open method: The press-to-open fuel tank door is currently the most convenient method. The driver only needs to park the car, and the fuel attendant can press to open the tank for refueling. However, when not parked for refueling, drivers should always remember to engage the central locking system; otherwise, the fuel tank cap can be opened.

Why didn't I get the green book when buying a car in full payment?

When purchasing a car with full payment, you should definitely receive the green book. If you encounter this situation, it's best to inquire with the 4S dealership or the staff at the vehicle management office.
