The headlight washer switch is located on the panel below the headlight switch on the left side of the steering wheel. The headlight washer system consists of a water outlet positioned below the headlights, allowing for quick cleaning of dust and dirt on the headlights. To use the headlight washer system, turn on the headlights and pull the windshield wiper lever for a few seconds. This will activate the headlight washer, which then sprays water to clean dirt off the headlight covers. Note that the water sprayed by the headlight washer is actually windshield washer fluid. If the washer fluid is low, the headlight washer will not function and requires timely refilling. The headlight washer system is primarily used in vehicles equipped with xenon headlights. Xenon lights offer advantages such as energy efficiency, high brightness, comfortable high color temperature, and long lifespan. However, they also have drawbacks, including higher color temperature, which results in poorer penetration than halogen lights in rainy, foggy, or snowy conditions. When dust and dirt accumulate on the headlight covers, penetration becomes even worse, and some light is absorbed. Additionally, dust particles can scatter the light, making the headlight washer system essential in such cases. However, most vehicles' headlight washer systems do not include wipers, so after spraying, manual wiping is necessary to prevent residual stains from remaining on the headlight covers.

What do the car switches 'on' and 'off' mean?

Car switches 'on' and 'off' represent turning on and off. Additionally, there are some other buttons in the car: 1. The 'SEL' button is the menu selection confirmation button, usually located on the multifunction steering wheel; 2. The 'AC' button is the compressor switch, which is the air conditioning cooling switch; 3. 'MUTE' is the mute button, allowing for one-touch muting; 4. 'MODE' is the mode switching button; 5. 'SET' on the multifunction steering wheel is the cruise control function button; 6. The button with an encircled 'A' and 'OFF' beneath it is the auto start-stop function switch, which can be pressed to turn the engine auto start-stop function on or off.

Which gear should an automatic transmission car be in when waiting at a red light?

When waiting at a red light with an automatic transmission, you should keep the car in D gear. If the red light is expected to last for a longer duration, you can shift to N gear. An automatic transmission typically refers to a car's automatic gear-shifting mechanism, where the control system of the automatic transmission selects the appropriate gear based on the engine's speed and load, replacing the driver's subjective judgment and manual gear-shifting operations. The automatic transmission uses a planetary gear mechanism to change gears automatically according to the degree of the accelerator pedal and changes in vehicle speed. The driver only needs to control the speed by operating the accelerator pedal. Generally, an automatic transmission has six gears: P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), D (Drive), S (Sport), and L (Low).

How are oil grades classified?

Oil grade classification methods: S represents oil for gasoline engines, C represents oil for diesel engines. Then, following the English alphabetical order after the letters S and C, from SA to SL, the later the English letter appears in the alphabet, the higher the oil grade, indicating better performance of the oil. The S series represents oil specifications for gasoline engines: SA, SB, SC, SD, SE, SF, SG, SH. The C series represents oil specifications for diesel engines: CA, CB, CC, CD, CE, CF, CF2, CF4, CG4, CH4, CI4. When both S and C letters are present, it indicates that the oil is suitable for both gasoline and diesel engines. Oil is the lubricant used by engines, composed of base oil and additives.

What is the symbol for low water level in a car radiator?

The symbol for low water level in a car radiator is an icon resembling a thermometer with two water ripples beneath it. The car radiator, also known as a heat exchanger, is a key component in the vehicle's cooling system. Its function is to dissipate heat. The coolant absorbs heat in the water jacket, flows to the radiator to release the heat, and then returns to the water jacket in a continuous cycle, achieving the effect of heat dissipation and temperature regulation. The radiator is a crucial part of a water-cooled engine, serving as an essential component in the engine's cooling circuit. It absorbs heat from the engine block to prevent the engine from overheating. Due to water's high specific heat capacity, the temperature rise after absorbing the engine block's heat is not significant. Therefore, the engine's heat is transferred through the liquid coolant circuit, using water as a heat carrier, and then dissipated by convection through large-area cooling fins to maintain the engine's optimal operating temperature.

What is the car warning light?

Car warning lights are indicator lights that illuminate when certain vehicle malfunctions occur. For example, if the battery is dead, the battery warning light will turn on. Main car warning lights include: 1. The engine indicator light shows the working status of the engine; 2. If the oil pressure warning light stays on while driving, it means the oil level is below the standard value; 3. The tire pressure warning light displays the tire pressure condition—if it lights up, it indicates insufficient tire pressure or damage; 4. The brake indicator light automatically turns on when the handbrake is engaged and turns off when released; 5. The airbag indicator light shows the working status of the airbags, usually performing a self-check when the car starts, with the light turning off after a few seconds.

Is it serious if the black primer is exposed after a white car is scratched?

It is relatively serious if the black primer is exposed after a white car is scratched, as it reveals the vehicle's most original primer. Such an issue should be repaired as soon as possible; otherwise, the scratched area where the primer is exposed is prone to rust, which can gradually expand over time and significantly affect the car's appearance. Methods to deal with exposed black primer on a white car: Apply ordinary toothpaste in a circular motion on the scratched area. Reapply after rain or car washing to reduce the visibility of the scratch and provide a simple barrier to prevent rust in the short term. However, applying toothpaste is only a temporary solution. It is still necessary to use a touch-up pen or visit a professional repair shop to repaint the damaged area of the car body.
