To activate the heating system in an electric vehicle, simply turn off the A/C switch and adjust the heating temperature. Below is a detailed introduction to the heating system of electric vehicle air conditioning: 1. PTC Thermistor Heating System: The heating principle of the PTC thermistor heating system is similar to that of an electric heating wire, generating heat through current passing through a resistor. Due to its simple structure, low cost, and fast heating characteristics, PTC heaters are widely used in pure electric vehicles (especially in mid-to-low-end models). 2. Heat Pump Heating System: The function of a heat pump is to transfer thermal energy from a low-temperature heat source to a high-temperature heat source, with a working principle similar to that of an air conditioning refrigeration system. Compared to PTC heaters, heat pump systems have higher thermal efficiency, lower energy consumption, and relatively less impact on the vehicle's range.

How to Raise the Car Seat?

There are two ways to adjust the height of a car seat: one is an electric seat, which is adjusted via buttons, and the other is a manual seat, which is adjusted using a lever. Electric seats are generally equipped in higher-end B-segment sedans, with electric adjustment buttons located on the side of the seat. These buttons allow for adjusting the seat's height or forward/backward position. Manual seat height adjustment requires the driver to manually operate a lever. When adjusting the seat, it's important not only to set the height but also the forward/backward position to achieve the optimal driving posture for the driver. The adjustment should not be too far or too close. If the seat is too far, the driver may not be able to brake promptly when needed. If it's too close, the driver's body will be uncomfortably close to the steering wheel, making it difficult to operate.

How to Turn Off the Daytime Running Lights on a Golf?

Steps to turn off the daytime running lights on a Golf: After getting into the car, insert the key but do not turn it. Then, hold the turn signal lever upward (the high beams will light up) while simultaneously turning the lever to the left without releasing it. Turn the key two notches to power on the dashboard. Once you hear a beep alarm, release the turn signal lever to turn off the daytime running lights. Similarly, turning the lever to the right can turn the daytime running lights back on. Taking the Golf 7 as an example, its dimensions are 4255mm in length, 1799mm in width, and 1452mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2637mm.

How to Deal with Brake Pulling?

The methods to address brake pulling are as follows: Adjust the left and right brake clearance according to specifications or polish the contact surface of the brake shoes. Uneven braking force on both sides of the same axle can cause unilateral braking. Common causes include brake caliper oil leakage, piston rust, oil contamination on drum brake shoes, and differences in surface roughness between the brake disc and pad or drum and shoe. These issues should be diagnosed and resolved during maintenance. Uneven tire pressure, tread patterns, or wear levels on both sides can lead to different actual rolling radii of the wheels, resulting in unequal straight-line travel distances. This situation may cause the vehicle to pull to one side even when not braking. Inconsistent clearance between the rear brake shoes and brake drums can cause asynchronous braking or differences in contact area, leading to uneven braking force on both sides.
