The rearview mirror heating switch of the Roewe i5 is located below the central control screen, together with the front windshield defogging switch. The rearview mirror heating function refers to the heating of the electric heating wire embedded behind the lens of the mirror when driving in rainy, snowy, or foggy weather, ensuring the clarity of the mirror surface. The Roewe i5 is positioned as a compact car, featuring a rhythmic design language that gives it a more sporty appearance. The main characteristics of the rhythmic design language include: a through-type taillight, a full-balanced double-drive wind-shadow waistline, and a winged dynamic wide-body front face. In terms of configuration, the Roewe i5 is equipped with the SAIClink intelligent connectivity system.

When I drove the Roewe i5 before, I researched this rearview mirror heating switch, which is integrated into the air conditioning panel, usually sharing the same button with the rear window defogger. The button icon looks like a small square with horizontal lines or waves. When pressed, both the rearview mirrors and rear window heat up simultaneously, which is especially useful for clearing fog on rainy or cold days. The first time I used it was during winter frost, and it worked well, clearing the mirrors in just a few minutes. It's located in the air conditioning control area to the right of the driver's seat, making it easy to find. The design is quite user-friendly, eliminating the need for a separate switch and reducing hassle. Remember to turn it on before driving in rainy or foggy conditions for better visibility and safety. I haven't had any issues using it, but avoid keeping it on continuously for too long to prevent wire overheating. It's advisable to check the manual to confirm the button symbol.

What Are the Reasons for the High Fuel Consumption of Domestic Cars?

There are several reasons for the high fuel consumption of domestic cars: 1. Engine technology issues: Although China has developed many technologies to reduce engine fuel consumption, such as variable valve timing (VVT), turbocharging, and direct fuel injection, the overall mastery of these technologies still falls short compared to joint-venture cars. Domestic car manufacturers cannot directly use these technologies and must find ways to circumvent patent restrictions, which limits engine development. 2. Transmission matching: No matter how powerful an engine is, it requires a well-matched transmission to maintain the most economical RPM range. Therefore, transmission matching is a crucial and time-consuming task. Due to a lack of experience and time constraints in the domestic car development process, it is often difficult to achieve comprehensive optimization, resulting in engines frequently operating outside the optimal RPM range, wasting energy and fuel. 3. Vehicle weight: Many people believe that heavier vehicles are safer, but this is not necessarily true. Some lightweight high-strength steels or aluminum alloys can achieve higher strength than conventional steel. Higher vehicle weight directly leads to higher fuel consumption, indicating the use of ordinary materials and suboptimal design. For instance, more steel is often used to ensure strength, and engines may not be made entirely of aluminum. In contrast, joint-venture cars often employ high-strength materials and hollow-out designs to reduce weight while maintaining strength, achieving lightweighting to minimize the impact of vehicle weight on fuel consumption.

How Long Does It Take to Fully Charge a Car After Battery Drain?

After a car battery drains, it typically takes about one hour of driving to fully recharge it. Additional Information: 1. Generally, driving on the highway for more than an hour can fully charge the car battery, maintaining it in optimal condition. 2. During regular use, avoid leaving the car unused for extended periods. If the car is not used for a long time, such as 20 days or a month, the battery cable should be disconnected, or the car should be started and driven for several dozen kilometers every two weeks to ensure the battery remains functional. 3. Do not crank the engine for more than 3 seconds each time you start it. If the first attempt fails, avoid repeatedly trying to start the engine immediately. From the perspective of automotive working principles, continuous cranking will cause excessive battery discharge and damage. The interval between restart attempts should be more than 5 seconds.

What is the working principle of the lock-up clutch?

The working principle of the lock-up clutch is: The engagement and disengagement of the lock-up clutch are controlled by the electronic control unit through the lock-up solenoid valve. When the vehicle is driving on poor road surfaces, the lock-up clutch can be disengaged to allow the torque converter to function, fully leveraging the advantages of hydraulic transmission in automatically adapting to drastic changes in driving resistance. When the vehicle is driving on good roads, the lock-up clutch should be engaged to make the input and output shafts of the torque converter rigidly connected, thereby switching to direct mechanical transmission. The lock-up clutch consists of components such as the lock-up piston, damping plate, and turbine drive plate. The lock-up piston and damping plate are connected by splines and can move back and forth, while the damping plate and turbine drive plate are connected via damping springs to attenuate torsional vibrations during the engagement of the lock-up clutch.

What Should You Do When Braking?

For air brakes, it is best to use intermittent braking, which means pressing and releasing the brake pedal quickly, then pressing and releasing again until the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Note that the pressing speed should be rapid. Here are the reasons: Air brakes are generally used in heavy-duty vehicles, so their braking performance is better than hydraulic brakes. However, pressing the air brake pedal abruptly can easily cause uneven braking on one side, hence intermittent braking is recommended for air brakes. Below is a brief introduction to air brakes: 1. Air braking is a type of braking method. 2. In vehicles, a series of specialized devices that apply a certain force (mainly from the road surface) to specific parts (mainly the wheels) to enforce a certain degree of braking are collectively referred to as the braking system.
