There is a lever on the left side of the driver's seat and the right side of the passenger seat for adjusting the height. Pull the lever to adjust the seat height. Below are more details about adjustments in different positions: 1. Seat height adjustment: The ideal height is when there is about one to two fists of space between the top of your head and the roof, ensuring that your eye level is slightly above the center of the vertical distance of the front windshield. 2. Seat forward/backward adjustment: Your feet should be able to fully press the clutch and brake pedals; when holding the steering wheel, your arms should be slightly bent for optimal positioning. 3. Steering wheel adjustment: The steering wheel position should be adjusted based on the seat position. The best position is when your arms are straight and resting on the top of the steering wheel, with your wrists just touching the edge of the wheel, indicating the correct adjustment. 4. Backrest angle adjustment: The backrest angle should be set reasonably—not too reclined nor too upright—to minimize the distance between your body and the steering wheel, reducing potential injury from airbags in emergencies. 5. Headrest height adjustment: The headrest should be level with your head or the soft middle part aligned with the top of your ears. The most protective part of the headrest is its center, which effectively safeguards your head and neck in the event of a severe impact.

What is the function of the start-stop system?

The function of the start-stop system: By installing an enhanced motor with idle start-stop function on a traditional engine, the car can completely shut down the engine when it meets the conditions for idling and parking. When the vehicle needs to start moving again, the idle start-stop motor system quickly responds to the driver's start command, rapidly starts the engine, and instantly connects, thereby greatly reducing exhaust emissions. The working principle of the start-stop system: When the vehicle stops moving due to traffic congestion or at an intersection, the driver can press the brake pedal and shift to neutral. At this time, the Start system automatically detects whether the engine is idling and not in gear, the wheel speed sensor of the anti-lock system shows zero, and the electronic battery sensor shows sufficient energy for restarting. Once these conditions are met, the engine will automatically stop rotating. When the traffic light turns green, the driver can press the clutch to activate the 'start-stop device.' In automatic transmission models, once the brake is released or the steering wheel is turned, the engine will immediately restart automatically, with the entire process remaining in D gear.

Is it allowed to drive barefoot?

Driving barefoot is not permitted. According to Article 90 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law,' while driving, behaviors that hinder safe driving, such as wearing slippers, high heels with heels over 4 cm, driving barefoot, or holding a phone for calls, are prohibited. Drivers violating these regulations will be penalized with demerit points and corresponding fines. In the event of a minor traffic accident, even if the barefoot driver is not at fault, they will still face penalties. In general traffic accidents, the barefoot driver will bear primary or full responsibility. Driving barefoot is a controversial topic. Although not as severe as drunk driving, it can still be classified as behavior that endangers public driving safety. Traffic police warn that prolonged barefoot driving can lead to foot fatigue, affecting the foot's sensitivity and feedback strength, which may result in misoperation. Additionally, barefoot driving can cause sweating, reducing friction with the brake pedal and increasing the risk of slipping or delayed braking. Moreover, the dispersed force from toes during emergency braking can lead to insufficient braking force, potentially causing major public traffic accidents. For the safety of yourself and others, please adhere to traffic regulations.

Can a dash cam record when the car is not in motion?

A dash cam can record when the car is not in motion, but only if it has a parking monitoring feature. The working principle is that when the vehicle body is impacted or when movement is detected in front of the car, the dash cam will automatically wake up and start the monitoring function. When turned off, the dash cam is equivalent to being powered off, and the device cannot operate without a power supply. When the vehicle is turned off and the power is cut, the dash cam will use its built-in lithium battery to record, but the recording time is relatively short. If you want the dash cam to record continuously, you can directly use the car battery to replace the ACC power supply. When the car is turned off, the dash cam will continue to record, but this will consume the car battery's power. It is recommended that car owners park their vehicles in a safe and reliable place when parking outdoors to prevent collisions.

What is the function of a manual transmission synchronizer?

Manual transmission synchronizer function: When the vehicle is running, the driving gear and the driven gear are always kept synchronized, ensuring smooth gear shifting at different speeds and preventing gear noise during shifting. There are two types of synchronizers: constant pressure type and inertial type. Currently, most synchronized transmissions use inertial synchronizers, which consist of a coupling sleeve, a synchronizer lock ring, etc., and mainly rely on friction to achieve synchronization. Synchronizer working principle: When the inner conical surface of the synchronizer lock ring contacts the outer conical surface of the gear ring to be engaged, under the action of friction torque, the gear speed quickly decreases (or increases) to match the speed of the synchronizer lock ring. Both rotate synchronously, and the relative speed of the gear to the synchronizer lock ring becomes zero, so the inertial torque also disappears. At this time, under the action of the applied force, the coupling sleeve can engage with the gear ring of the synchronizer lock ring without obstruction, and further engage with the gear ring of the gear to be engaged, completing the gear shifting process.

What Components Are Included in a Timing Belt Kit?

A timing belt kit includes the tensioner pulley, tensioner, idler pulley, and timing belt required for the timing drive system, as well as hardware components such as bolts, nuts, and washers that should be replaced regularly. This ensures the timing drive system and engine operate optimally after maintenance. The timing drive system is a crucial part of the engine's valve train, connecting to the crankshaft and maintaining precise intake and exhaust timing through a specific gear ratio. As an integrated system, the timing drive ensures proper engine function, necessitating a complete replacement during maintenance. Replacing only individual components may compromise performance, as the condition and lifespan of old parts can affect new ones.
