The cabin air filter in a 2016 Elysee is located in the glove compartment under the front windshield on the passenger side. Steps to replace the cabin air filter: 1. Open the glove compartment and pull down the small hook on the right side. 2. Squeeze both sides of the glove compartment inward to remove it. 3. The cabin air filter compartment is inside. Release the clips on both sides to pull it out. 4. Remove the filter frame, install the new filter, and reinstall the glove compartment. Additional information: The activated carbon filtration function of the cabin air filter diminishes after prolonged use. Therefore, you can purchase a compatible cabin air filter from the auto parts market for replacement. Generally, it should be replaced monthly during summer. In seasons when the air conditioning is not in use, replacement may not be necessary. If the air conditioning is occasionally used, replacement can be done based on actual usage conditions.

What's the matter with the anti-theft failure of Great Wall Fengjun 5?

Reasons: Fuse blown; Anti-theft control unit damaged. Below is a partial introduction about car anti-theft (car safety lock): 1. Introduction: A car safety lock is a type of security device used to lock the vehicle's steering wheel, consisting of a lock rod, lock body, and lock handle. 2. Principle: Bent rods are welded on the lock rod and lock handle respectively, with threads on the right end of the lock body that connect with the lock handle via threads. During use, the bent rods clamp onto the inner side of the steering wheel, aligning the lock handle with the seat, thereby preventing unauthorized drivers from operating the steering wheel and thus preventing vehicle theft. The safety lock features simple structure, ease of use, safety and reliability, strong anti-theft capabilities, and is an ideal security device for vehicle self-protection.

What Should Beginners Pay Attention to When Driving for the First Time?

Precautions for first-time driving: 1. Mindset: Although you may have driving experience from driving school, facing complex road conditions for the first time can still be nerve-wracking. Therefore, when driving for the first time, it's important to stay relaxed but not overly so to avoid negligence that could lead to accidents. 2. Familiarize yourself with the vehicle: Make sure you are familiar with the vehicle you are driving and understand how to use all its functions. For example, how to adjust the rearview mirror angles, the correct usage of lights, and even seat adjustments. 3. Know your route: For your first drive, it's best to stick to routes you frequently travel. Be aware of traffic light setups and lane directions at intersections to avoid penalties or fines for incorrect lane usage during turns. 4. Parking skills: You should also master skills like parallel parking to avoid unnecessary troubles.

What is the actual fuel consumption of the Leiling Hybrid?

The actual fuel consumption of the Leiling Hybrid is 4.2-5.1L/100km. The currently available Leiling Hybrid models include 13 variants such as the 2022 E-CVT Venture Edition, E-CVT Luxury Edition, E-CVT Tech Edition, E-CVT Leading Edition, and E-CVT Premium Edition. The official NEDC combined fuel consumption ranges from 4.0-5.7L/100km. Among vehicles in the same class, the Xingrui has an NEDC combined fuel consumption of 6.7L/100km, the Corolla ranges from 4.0-5.6L/100km, the Civic ranges from 5.0-6.4L/100km, the Sagitar ranges from 5.3-5.6L/100km, and the Verano ranges from 5.2-6.3L/100km. A vehicle's fuel consumption is directly influenced by five major factors: driving habits, the vehicle itself, road conditions, natural wind, and ambient temperature. Details are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before reaching a red light can increase fuel consumption. The vehicle itself: Vehicles with larger engine displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements typically produce more power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier vehicles also have higher fuel consumption due to the greater driving torque needed. Road conditions: Driving on unpaved roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous terrain increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases vehicle resistance and fuel consumption. Low ambient temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during cold starts, requiring more gasoline for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, the engine control unit may command higher idle speeds to warm up the engine in cold temperatures, further increasing fuel consumption.

Do new cars need inspection?

New cars do not require inspection. New cars are exempt from inspection for the first 6 years, but you need to go to the vehicle management office every 2 years to apply for stickers and labels. Below are the precautions for vehicle inspection: Inspection time limits: For non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles (excluding minivans) that are over 6 years but under 10 years old, the inspection cycle has been relaxed from once a year to once every two years. This means private cars only need to undergo on-site inspections twice within 10 years, specifically in the 6th and 8th years. For vehicles over 15 years old, the rules remain unchanged, requiring inspection every six months. Methods to check validity period: You can download the "Traffic Management 12123" mobile app to check your vehicle's inspection validity period. Starting from April this year, the motor vehicle inspection compliance label has been digitized, and owners no longer need to go on-site to replace it.

Does an automatic transmission have a clutch?

Generally, automatic transmission models do not have a clutch pedal; they only have an accelerator pedal and a brake pedal. Due to their simple operation, automatic transmissions are highly favored by novice drivers and female drivers. Automatic transmission cars are suitable for congested roads, reducing the hassle of frequent gear changes in manual transmission models and making it easier to follow traffic. Without the clutch pedal, driving becomes relatively simpler, requiring only one foot to operate, which allows the left foot to relax and reduces driving fatigue. Driving precautions for automatic transmission cars: 1. Proper use of the N gear when waiting at a red light: Many drivers keep their foot on the brake with the gear in D when waiting at a red light in an automatic transmission car. Maintaining this state for a long time can easily cause wear on the car's transmission. The appropriate gear should be chosen based on the duration of the red light. If the red light lasts more than 30 seconds, it is advisable to shift to N gear, engage the handbrake, and relax. 2. Avoid coasting in N gear: Many manual transmission drivers prefer coasting in neutral to save fuel, but this is not applicable to automatic transmissions. Coasting in N gear in an automatic transmission does not save fuel; instead, it increases fuel consumption and causes significant wear on the transmission.
