The three-stage wiper blade has a specific orientation. Generally, the larger end should face downward, similar to the triangular head of a viper. Precautions for using wipers: Avoid dry wiping: If you want to use the wiper to remove dust or debris from the windshield on a sunny day, always spray windshield washer fluid first. Otherwise, not only can the rubber blade be easily damaged, but the windshield may also suffer irreversible harm. Cleaning the wiper blade: When handling the wiper, only hold the "backbone" of the wiper arm and gently return it to its position. The spring tension of the wiper arm is very strong, and if it snaps back onto the glass, there is a high risk of shattering the windshield—this is essentially metal hitting glass. Rainy or snowy weather: In northern winters during rain or snow, always use an ice scraper to remove ice particles from the windshield before using the wipers to prevent damage to the rubber blade. Avoid direct sunlight: In summer, try to park the vehicle in a shaded area to avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.

What is the process for filing a rear wing installation?

First, it depends on whether the owner has changed the color of the vehicle. If the color has been altered, it is necessary to visit the vehicle management office to submit a modification application and take a new photo of the vehicle. After installing the rear wing, take clear photos. Then, go to the vehicle management office to submit the modification application. The installation will be approved once it is confirmed that the rear wing does not affect the vehicle's performance or safety. Once the rear wing modification is approved, the vehicle's registration certificate must be updated with a new photo to reflect the modified appearance. If the vehicle was photographed with the rear wing during the initial license plate registration, no additional procedures are required. Otherwise, it is considered a violation, and the modification filing procedure must be completed.

Methods for Extricating a Vehicle Stuck in the Desert?

When the vehicle is stuck, you can reduce the tire pressure to half of the normal pressure. Use the onboard military shovel to dig out the sand, allowing the vehicle to drive out on its own. When stuck, you can use strapped anti-skid chains for self-rescue and extrication. This type of extraction device has a similar effect to anti-skid chains but offers a wider range of adaptability and better extrication results than chains.
