Turn it on below the instrument panel light brightness adjustment switch. Here are the specific details about the distance sensor: 1. Introduction: The distance sensor, also known as a linear sensor, is a type of linear device that belongs to metal sensing. The function of the sensor is to convert various measured physical quantities into electrical quantities. Displacement is related to the movement of an object's position during motion, and the measurement methods for displacement cover a wide range. 2. Applications: Small displacements are usually detected using strain-type, inductive-type, differential transformer-type, eddy current-type, or Hall sensors. Large displacements are often measured using sensing technologies such as inductive synchronizers, gratings, capacitive gratings, or magnetic gratings. Among these, grating sensors are easy to digitize and offer high precision, with the highest resolution currently reaching the nanometer level.

You can easily activate the distance sensing system right on the steering wheel. As a veteran long-distance driver, I find this feature in Lexus vehicles quite practical. The activation button is usually located on the right side of the steering wheel, typically marked with a car radar icon. With a light press, the system activates, and a small indicator lights up on the dashboard to show it's on. The system automatically detects the distance to the vehicle ahead and helps adjust your speed, saving you from constantly watching the pedals. Beginners are advised to try it at low speeds first to get familiar with it, avoiding busy traffic areas for the initial activation. This feature is especially suitable for highway driving, reducing fatigue, but remember to stay attentive and avoid distractions like using your phone. The button location may vary slightly between models, so it's best to refer to the owner's manual for confirmation. Overall, it's simple, efficient, and worth trying.

I prioritize driving safety, and the Lexus distance sensing activation is conveniently located on the central button of the steering wheel—just a simple press to engage. Once activated, the system automatically maintains a safe distance from the vehicle ahead, helping to prevent rear-end collisions, making it ideal for long trips or families with children. A dashboard indicator light confirms when the system is active. First-time users are advised to set an appropriate following distance, typically adjustable via the steering wheel. While the system is helpful, manual intervention is recommended in curves or adverse weather conditions. After several uses, I found it particularly convenient, especially in traffic jams, reducing driver fatigue. Routine maintenance requires minimal effort, but occasional checks for button responsiveness are recommended.

There are small buttons on the steering wheel to activate the distance sensing function. Just press one to start it. This feature is super convenient—the system automatically controls the following distance and speed, making driving much easier. I often use it on highways, as the radar automatically detects the car ahead, saving a lot of hassle. The activation button is located on the right side of the steering wheel, simple enough for beginners to operate without worrying about complicated settings. Just remember not to get distracted—safety comes first.

As an experienced Lexus driver for many years, activating the distance sensing is a breeze. Just press the button on the steering wheel to start, and the system operates smoothly. I recommend using it first on clear roads, as the system maintains distance very accurately, with optimal performance for highway cruising. After activation, setting a medium distance is safer, and don't rely on it too much in rainy or foggy conditions. The button is usually located on the multifunction steering wheel, and you can check the manual for specifics. Using it makes driving easier and keeps fuel consumption stable.

Is the red battery exclamation mark in Chery EQ serious?

Red exclamation mark (specifically a circle with an exclamation mark inside parentheses), this represents a warning for the braking system, mainly indicating a braking system malfunction or low brake fluid level. Solution: Immediate inspection and repair of the braking system is required to avoid accidents. Apart from the red exclamation mark indicating a braking system fault, other exclamation marks on the car are yellow, representing general faults, automatic transmission faults, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting faults. Below is a detailed analysis of these four situations: General Fault: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a fault in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Main issues include parking sensor faults, fuel cut-off system intervention or faults, external light faults, engine oil pressure sensor faults, etc. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic Transmission Fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a fault in the transmission or transmission lubricant below the normal range. Transmission oil should be replaced promptly. Abnormal Tire Pressure: A horizontal line under parentheses with an exclamation mark in the middle. This represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light. When the car's tire pressure is too low, this warning light will illuminate. Check the car's tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. This is the lighting fault indicator, indicating a fault in the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection and repair as soon as possible, or conduct a self-check, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lighting, to identify the issue.

Where is the keyless module of BAIC Huansu H2?

The keyless module of BAIC Huansu H2 is located next to the steering wheel, where there is a keyless start button. Below is relevant information about the car's keyless start system: 1. Introduction: The keyless start system allows the vehicle to be started without turning a key. Simply keep the key in your bag or pocket, and press the button inside the car or turn the knob to ignite the engine. It is more convenient and significantly enhances the sense of luxury and technology. 2. Working Principle: The system uses the most advanced Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology, automatically locking and unlocking the doors through the chip in the smart card carried by the owner. This means that when the driver approaches the vehicle within a certain distance, the door locks will automatically open and the anti-theft system will deactivate; when the driver leaves the vehicle, the door locks will automatically lock and the anti-theft system will activate. Vehicles equipped with a keyless entry system usually have a sensor button on the door handle, as well as a keyhole, to ensure that the owner can still open the door in the traditional way if the smart card is damaged or runs out of power.
