Front side airbags are located on the outer side of the front seats. Their function is to mitigate the impact from side collisions. By deploying, they directly reduce the impact between the body and the door panel, effectively protecting the safety of front-seat passengers. Most high-end vehicles are equipped with this type of airbag, which is mainly installed on the side near the windows. Typically, more than seven sensors are installed in the vehicle. When an impact is detected, these airbags will automatically deploy. The system primarily consists of sensors, a microprocessor, a gas generator, and the airbag itself. The sensors and microprocessor determine the severity of the collision. Through signal transmission and processing, an ignition operation is triggered, using solid fuel to inflate the airbag, causing it to rapidly expand to meet standard specifications.

What is the manual tire pressure reset method for the Chery New Tiggo 3?

For the Chery EQ1, the tire pressure reset button is located on the left-hand control lever, marked as the SET button. Press it once, then select the reset option. A prompt will indicate that tire pressure learning has begun, and you can proceed with the reset using a reset tool. Tire pressure reset method: First, turn on the ignition, then press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "beep" sound before releasing it. The tire pressure monitoring system will then store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clearing the previous data. Finally, the dashboard warning light will turn off, indicating that the tire pressure reset is complete. Solutions for insufficient tire pressure: If no visible damage is detected, simply inflate the tire to the normal pressure and reset the tire pressure system. If a puncture is found during inspection, drive to a tire repair shop promptly, have the tire patched, and then reinflate it. If the low tire pressure warning reappears some time after inflation, but there is no puncture, it may be due to air leakage caused by a deformed wheel rim. It is recommended to inspect the wheel rim and replace it if necessary.

What Causes Frequent Blowing of Car Headlight Fuses?

Reasons: Loose grounding or undersized fuse amperage; alternator rectification issues. Below is an expanded introduction about car headlights: 1. Function: The role of car headlights is to provide illumination for nighttime driving. Also known as automobile front lights or LED daytime running lights, they serve as the 'eyes' of a vehicle. They not only affect the owner's external image but are also crucial for safe driving during nighttime or adverse weather conditions. 2. Types: Automotive lighting can be categorized into two types based on purpose: primary and auxiliary. Only the headlights and some vehicles' fog lights serve as primary illumination sources, while all others are considered auxiliary lights.

Can 102H Replace 102V Tires?

H indicates that the tire's maximum speed is 210 km/h, while V indicates a maximum speed of 240 km/h. V has a higher speed rating than H, so it is recommended to use the original tires. Below is a detailed introduction to car tire specifications: 1. Specification model representation: Tires are important components of a car, and there are many specifications and models of tires, with different ones suitable for different vehicle types. The specification model identification is usually on the sidewall of the tire, represented by a series of alphanumeric characters, corresponding to the tire's tread width, aspect ratio, type, rim size, load index, and speed rating. 2. Speed rating: Based on the maximum speed they can withstand, tires can be divided into different speed ratings from A to Z, with the A rating further divided into eight different levels from A1 to A8. Generally, the further back the letter representing the tire's speed rating is in the alphabet, the better the tire's performance.

What are the reasons for the Roewe 750 not responding when starting?

Reasons why the Roewe 750 won't start: 1. No fuel: This is an obvious reason, but in daily life, some people still make this basic mistake. Always develop the habit of checking the fuel gauge when getting in and out of the car. 2. Wrong gear position: For automatic transmission vehicles, the gear must be in P or N position when starting. If placed in R or D position, the engine won't start. Some manual transmission vehicles also won't start if the clutch isn't depressed. 3. Dead battery: This could be due to power loss from leaving headlights on for too long or the battery reaching the end of its lifespan. It's generally recommended to replace the battery every 2 years. Additionally, installing xenon headlights or high-power audio systems can also cause vehicle circuit failures. 4. Spark plugs: Most commonly, the first thing to check is the car's spark plugs, as they are crucial components in the vehicle's ignition system. The ignition system is key to whether the car's 'heart' works or not, so the proper functioning of spark plugs directly affects the vehicle's performance and efficiency. Emergency solution: You can unscrew the spark plugs, clean them, and reinstall them to get the car started. A thorough solution is to inspect the ignition system and eliminate causes of low ignition energy, such as spark plug electrode gap, ignition coil energy, high-voltage line condition, etc.
