Height adjustment needs to be done through the central control screen. Additional information: Advantages of automatic headlight function: 1. Reduces manual operation time: The automatic headlight function shortens the driver's manual operation time, improving driving safety. 2. Reduces blind spots: When used in conjunction with adaptive headlights, it reduces blind spots during turns, enhancing nighttime driving safety. 3. Convenience: Nowadays, more and more vehicles are equipped with automatic headlights and adaptive headlight functions, which also improves driving convenience.

When driving the Volkswagen Tharu, the headlight height adjustment is located on the control panel to the left of the steering wheel, where there is a roller or knob. Turning it adjusts the beam height. I remember once during a night drive on the highway, I noticed the lights were dazzling oncoming vehicles, so I quickly pulled over and found this small adjustment point right next to the dashboard. The operation is simple but has a significant impact on safety. Volkswagen designed it very ergonomically, placing it within easy reach of the driver without needing to bend over or open the hood. Adjustments should be made based on the load: if the trunk is full of luggage, the lights may be too high and need to be lowered to prevent glare; when the car is empty, they can be raised for better long-distance illumination. I always check it before switching drivers or going on long trips—it takes just a few seconds but makes driving much safer.

As someone who frequently tinkers with vehicles, I found the headlight height adjustment point on the Tharu—it's located in the lighting control area just below the left side of the steering wheel, usually a small roller or button combination. Give the knob a twist, and you can directly observe the beam changes. The key is adjusting based on road conditions: maintain medium height on flat urban roads, while appropriately lowering it on mountainous terrain to avoid blind spots. Volkswagen has thoughtfully positioned this feature in SUVs like the Tharu, placing it near the driver's door panel for easy reach. Don't underestimate this adjustment—it can prevent being pulled over by police at night or receiving complaints. During routine maintenance, take a moment to check and ensure the lights are aligned to the target point—find a wall, park a few meters away, and check if the high beam focus is reasonable. Once adjusted, the brightness becomes more concentrated, making driving more worry-free.

Will I Get Points Deducted and Fined for Speeding Between 10% and 20% Over the Limit?

Speeding between 10% and 20% over the limit will result in a 3-point deduction. The hazards of speeding in a car are as follows: Damage to the Vehicle's Safety Performance: Excessive speed can compromise the vehicle's performance under specific conditions, increasing its operational stress and load capacity. It also causes significant wear and tear on internal components, particularly the tires. Speeding raises the temperature from friction between the tires and the road, leading to accelerated aging or deformation of the tires, which can result in blowouts during driving. Speeding Increases the Risk of Traffic Accidents: When driving at high speeds, the driver may not accurately judge the speed of their own vehicle or the slower speeds of pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles outside. This situation significantly raises the likelihood of traffic accidents.

Can you turn right at a red light intersection without a right turn arrow indicator?

You can turn right at a red light intersection without a right turn arrow indicator. When the straight and left turn signals are red, and there is no explicit prohibition against right turns, you may turn right after ensuring safety and without obstructing straight-moving vehicles or pedestrians. There are two types of traffic lights: circular (full-screen) traffic lights and arrow traffic lights. Before turning right, you must be in the rightmost motor vehicle lane; otherwise, you may face penalties such as fines or demerit points. Not driving in the correct lane can also lead to rear-end collisions. If there is a clear sign prohibiting right turns, you must not turn right under any circumstances, or you will be penalized for running a red light. Correct method for turning right at a traffic light intersection: Arrow-shaped traffic signals. A red arrow prohibiting a turn means no right turns are allowed. Vehicles must strictly follow the traffic signals. Violating traffic signals, whether going straight or turning right, constitutes running a red light and results in a 6-point penalty. Circular traffic light with no additional signs. Motor vehicles may turn right at a red light intersection without it being considered running a red light. However, drivers must yield to pedestrians and proceed cautiously to avoid accidents. Circular traffic light with additional signs. If there is a restriction on right-turning vehicles, you must stop and wait until right turns are permitted before proceeding. Criteria for determining a right turn red light violation: To be considered running a red light while turning right, three photos must be captured. The first photo is taken when the red light is on and the front wheels cross the stop line, triggering a signal. If the vehicle does not stop and continues to turn right, a second signal is triggered when the rear wheels cross the stop line, resulting in a second photo. The third photo is taken when the vehicle reaches the induction loop at the opposite right turn intersection. If all three photos are captured, it is confirmed as running a red light.

What gauge wire is needed for car battery jump cables?

Car battery jump cables require 25 square millimeter copper wire, approximately 2 meters in length. Precautions for car jump-starting: Use jump cables that meet the requirements; Ensure secure connection between battery terminals and cables, as poor contact may cause sparks or excessive heat; Check the labeled voltage of both batteries to ensure they match; Put the vehicle in neutral, engage the parking brake, and start the engine; If the first attempt fails, wait one or two minutes before trying again. Reasons for following proper connection sequence during jump-starting: Most vehicles use negative grounding, meaning the metal parts of the car are connected to the negative terminal; Battery short circuits can be extremely dangerous, and with flammable engine oil and gasoline present in vehicles, accidents may occur; Small amounts of hydrogen gas may sometimes accumulate around the battery, potentially causing combustion if sparks occur during connection, though this scenario is highly unlikely.

What are the different grades of gasoline?

Gasoline grades include 89, 92, 90, 93, 95, etc. Appearance of gasoline: Gasoline is a volatile, flammable hydrocarbon mixture obtained from petroleum distillation and cracking. It is a transparent liquid, flammable, with a distillation range of 30°C to 220°C. Its main components are C5-C12 aliphatic hydrocarbons and cycloalkanes, along with a certain amount of aromatic hydrocarbons. It has a high octane number and can be used as automobile fuel. Applications of gasoline: Gasoline is primarily used as a power fuel for transportation. In industries such as rubber, paint, dye, printing, pharmaceuticals, and adhesives, gasoline is used as a solvent. It is also employed as a degreasing agent for cleaning parts and clothing, as well as for pre-treatment of electroplated products.

What does the abnormal tire pressure indicator mean?

The tire pressure warning light illuminates due to the following reasons: tire pressure is outside the normal range; tire deflation caused by air leakage or punctures; malfunction of the tire pressure sensor. Below are the impacts of both overinflation and underinflation: Effects of overinflated tires: Overinflation increases friction between the tire and the ground, reducing tire grip; affects vehicle braking performance and driving comfort; accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan. Effects of underinflated tires: Increases contact area between the tire and ground, causing tires to overheat; expands the tire carcass, leading to cracks on inner/outer sidewalls; accelerates rubber aging and increases tire wear.
