The mirror folding switch for the Tharu Comfort Edition is located on the door armrest. Below is an introduction to the electric folding mirrors: 1. Folding the mirrors can save a significant amount of space and also prevent your beloved car from suffering 'broken ears.' 2. Mirrors with folding functionality can retract when passing through narrow sections, improving the vehicle's maneuverability. As the widest component installed on a vehicle, mirrors are most susceptible to impact in case of a side collision. To minimize scratches, mirrors need to have a folding feature. 3. When the driver leaves the car, the mirrors can also be folded. This not only protects the mirror surface but also reduces parking space, effectively avoiding scrapes.

I've driven the Tharu Comfort version for several years and noticed that the power-folding mirror switch is conveniently located on the door armrest next to the driver's seat, specifically near the window control buttons. There's a small button with a mirror folding icon – one press retracts the mirrors, another extends them. The placement is thoughtfully designed, allowing operation without bending over while driving. This proves especially useful in my residential area where parking spaces are tight; I frequently fold them to avoid scratches. A quick press before exiting has become a hassle-free routine. For maintenance, I recommend keeping the button dust-free with occasional soft cloth cleaning to prevent contact issues. Overall, this considerate little feature adds welcome flexibility to daily driving.

Where to Install ETC in a Car?

The installation position of ETC for small cars is generally in the upper middle part of the front windshield, while for large vehicles such as trucks and buses, it is installed in 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 and 90 degrees. For vehicles with factory-installed or aftermarket explosion-proof film, which may affect the signal transmission of the microwave communication link, the ETC should be installed in the microwave sunroof strip. ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection. To apply for ETC, the vehicle owner needs to provide original and photocopies of their valid ID card and vehicle license. If the application is made by a proxy, the proxy's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle license should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. Additionally, a bank card for deducting highway tolls is needed, and the vehicle must be registered under the name of an individual aged between 18 and 60. Here are some precautions for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a steeply inclined windshield, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. If ETC is installed without considering this, it may increase the driver's blind spots. Installing it behind the right side of the rearview mirror can help avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement because 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. Once installed, do not remove it arbitrarily: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever connected to a switch. After installation, 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. In such cases, you will need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This mechanism is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. When using ETC, note the following: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To avoid issues caused by a malfunctioning ETC device in the vehicle ahead, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the preceding vehicle to prevent automatic toll deduction for the wrong vehicle. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 kilometers per hour; driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information and unsuccessful toll deduction. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may also cause toll deduction failure.

Where to Place ETC on the Windshield?

The installation position of ETC for small cars is generally in the upper middle part of the front windshield, while for large vehicles such as trucks and buses, it is installed in the lower middle part. The appropriate 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, the ETC should be installed in the microwave sunroof strip. ETC stands for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply for ETC, the vehicle owner needs to provide valid ID and original and photocopies of the vehicle registration certificate. If the application is handled by a non-owner, the agent's valid ID 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 required, and the vehicle must be registered under an individual aged between 18 and 60. Here are some precautions for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have windshields with a large rearward tilt angle, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. If ETC is installed without considering this, it may increase the driver's blind spots. Installing it on the right side behind the rearview mirror can avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement because it has a solar panel on the back that can charge itself. Therefore, during installation, avoid the black areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Do not remove it randomly once installed: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever connected to a switch. After installation, the windshield will press the anti-removal lever in. If the tag is removed randomly, 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. When using ETC, note the following: 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 ahead to avoid automatic toll payment for the front vehicle. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 kilometers per hour. Driving too fast may prevent the vehicle device information from being read, resulting in a failed toll deduction. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance will also cause the toll deduction to fail.

How Many Cars Can One Person Finance?

In reality, auto loans typically allow for the purchase of one to two vehicles. However, in principle, as long as the borrower has sufficient repayment capacity and meets the loan conditions, there is no limit to the number of cars that can be purchased. That said, taking out a loan increases an individual's debt-to-income ratio. The higher this ratio, the lower the approval rate for subsequent loans. Conditions for Auto Loans: Age between 18 and 60 years. Ability to repay the principal and interest, along with a stable income source. The monthly loan payment must not exceed 60% of the household's disposable income. A third-party individual must provide a guarantee for the repayment of the loan principal and interest. The loan term must include a one-time purchase of "Motor Vehicle Consumer Loan Guarantee Insurance" and continuous coverage of "Motor Vehicle Insurance" from a bank-approved insurance provider. Documents Required for Auto Loans: Loan application form. Original and photocopy of ID card, household registration, or other valid residency documents. Proof of occupation and income, including but not limited to income certificates from employers, bank statements, credit card statements, tax payment proofs, etc. Purchase agreement, contract, or letter of intent signed with the dealer. Documents required for guarantees, including lists of collateral (pledges) and proof of consent from the owner (including co-owners) for collateral or pledge; proof of ownership or usage rights of the collateral issued by the relevant authority, written appraisal (based on the vehicle invoice price and market price), and insurance agreement documents. For pledges, the pledged item or proof of rights must be provided. For guarantors, a guarantee contract agreeing to joint liability and relevant creditworthiness materials, or documents proving eligibility for unsecured loans. Proof of the down payment made. Additional documents as required by the branch.

What is the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for the Toyota Corolla?

Toyota Corolla's combined fuel consumption ranges from 4.0-5.6L/100km. Currently, there are 12 models of Toyota Corolla available for sale. The S-CVT Pioneer PLUS version has a combined fuel consumption of 5.5L/100km. The S-CVT Luxury version, S-CVT Flagship version, Manual Pioneer version, and S-CVT Elite PLUS version have a combined fuel consumption of 5.6L/100km. The E-CVT Elite version and E-CVT Flagship version have a combined fuel consumption of 4.1L/100km. The SPORT version, CVT Elite version, and CVT Elite CARE version have a combined fuel consumption of 5.2L/100km. The CVT Pioneer version has a combined fuel consumption of 5.1L/100km. The E-CVT Pioneer version has a combined fuel consumption of 4L/100km. The above figures are the NEDC combined fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than these values, ranging from 2.0-10.5L/100km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacement generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement usually means higher power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperature: When the engine block temperature is low, the gasoline injected during a cold start does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine computer controls the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, which also increases fuel consumption.
