Where is the ETC installation location?

The ETC installation location is generally on the upper middle part of the front windshield horizontally. For large vehicles like trucks and buses, the installation location is on the lower middle part. The suitable installation position should be no lower than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 to 90 degrees. For vehicles with factory-installed or aftermarket explosion-proof film, which may affect the signal transmission of the microwave communication link, it should be installed in the microwave sunroof strip. ETC stands for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply, you need to provide the original and photocopy of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and vehicle registration certificate. If the application is not processed by the owner, the agent's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle registration certificate should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. A bank card for deducting highway tolls is also needed, and the vehicle must be registered under the name of an individual aged between 18 and 60. Documents required for company vehicles: Introduction letter from the vehicle owner (with official seal); photocopy of the organization code certificate or business license (with official seal); original ID card of the agent; original vehicle registration certificate; the vehicle for which ETC is to be installed. Here are some precautions for ETC installation: Do not obstruct the view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a large rearward tilt angle of the windshield, which reduces the driver's field of vision. If this is not considered during ETC installation, it may increase the driver's blind spot. Install it behind the rearview mirror on the right side to avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement, as it has a solar panel on the back for self-charging. Therefore, during installation, avoid the black areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Do not remove it arbitrarily once installed: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever, connected to a switch underneath. Once the electronic tag is installed, the windshield will press the anti-removal lever in. If the tag is removed arbitrarily, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. You will then need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. Notes for using ETC: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device of the vehicle in front from malfunctioning, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle in front to avoid automatic toll payment for it. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 kilometers per hour. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle device information, leading to toll deduction failure. When using a debit card bound to ETC, insufficient balance may also cause toll deduction failure.

The AC button in the air conditioning control area is the air conditioning compressor switch button, used for cooling. The knob on the left is the temperature adjustment knob; turning it clockwise increases the temperature, while turning it counterclockwise decreases the temperature. The knob in the middle adjusts the air volume of the air conditioning, which can be adjusted according to actual needs. The Sagitar's side features a concave design, forming a seamless shape with the front and rear fenders. The high waistline outlines precise body curves, highlighting the Sagitar's elegant and stable temperament.

How to Turn Off the Car Power?

To turn on the power without pressing the brake, press the one-touch start button once. To turn off the power, press the one-touch start button again without pressing the brake. For cars without a one-touch start system, simply turn the key to the 'lock' position. The one-touch start system is paired with a keyless entry system, which is a proximity key. With the key on your person and near the car, you can open the door and start the car by pressing the one-touch start button without ever needing to take out the key. Generally, to start the car with one-touch start, press the button without pressing the brake. Similarly, to turn off the power, press the button once, ensuring the gear is in the 'P' (Park) position. Car power, also known as a power inverter, is a device that converts DC12V direct current into AC220V alternating current, the same as household electricity, for use with general appliances. It serves as a convenient power converter. Car power systems are designed with external usage conditions in mind. They automatically shut down for protection in cases of overload or short circuits. The output voltage of the car power system is stabilized through its own feedback mechanism, ensuring that the voltage variation between no-load and rated conditions is less than 10V.

What does 95h on a tire mean?

Tire 95h refers to the load index, which corresponds to a load capacity of 690kg. When replacing tires, the specifications must comply with the vehicle manufacturer's requirements and recommendations. This means the load index of the replacement tire must be equal to or greater than that of the original tire, and the speed rating of the replacement tire must also be equal to or higher than that of the original tire. Tires often operate under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and extreme temperatures during use. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing performance, traction performance, and cushioning performance. Based on their application, tires can be categorized into: passenger car tires, light truck tires, construction machinery tires, off-road vehicle tires, and agricultural and forestry machinery tires.

Can a C2 driver's license drive a manual transmission car?

c2 driver's license cannot drive manual transmission cars. It allows driving small and micro automatic transmission passenger cars, as well as light and micro automatic transmission cargo vehicles. Similar to the C1 license, it only permits driving automatic transmission cars with fewer than 9 seats and a length not exceeding 6 meters. Manual transmission, also known as manual gearbox (MT), requires manually shifting the gear lever to change the gear engagement inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed change. The working principle of manual transmission involves using the gear shift fork to change the transmission ratio (gear ratio) of the meshing gears, thereby altering the driving torque to suit different operating conditions.

What is the reason why a 5-cylinder engine does not vibrate?

5-cylinder engine does not vibrate because: The efficiency and execution speed of a 5-cylinder engine are relatively high, so the engine does not vibrate. Each operation of a 5-cylinder engine basically involves 2.5 cylinders working, and the ignition gap may also be smaller than that of a four-cylinder engine, resulting in smoother operation compared to a four-cylinder engine. The engine is suitable not only as a power generation device but also refers to the entire machine including the power unit (such as gasoline engines, aircraft engines). Its types include internal combustion engines (such as gasoline engines), external combustion engines (such as Stirling engines, steam engines), gas turbines (used in racing cars), electric motors, etc.
