It may be due to a damaged phone data cable, foreign objects attached to the metal contacts of the USB plug, or surface oxidation. Here is some information about CarPlay navigation: 1. Introduction: CarPlay is a car system developed by Apple that connects to an iPhone via USB. Currently, it supports functions such as navigation, music, phone calls, text messages, podcasts, and audiobooks. All features in CarPlay are linked to the phone, and all operations can be controlled via Siri. 2. Features: Navigation: Currently, CarPlay navigation does not support third-party apps and only supports Apple's built-in navigation (default is Amap). Both the phone and CarPlay can search for destinations and enter the navigation interface. Music playback: If the owner's phone is an iPhone, songs can be played directly. Phone and text message usage: Open the phone icon, the first screen allows calls via Siri, the second screen is the dialing interface, and the third is the phonebook.

The horizontal fine groove design from both sides of the tread center to the shoulders not only strengthens the rigidity of the tread pattern but also improves driving performance on slippery surfaces. The central tread block, designed based on human spinal principles, enhances the rigidity of the tread center, improving handling safety and driving pleasure.

How Often Should Brake Fluid Be Changed?

Brake fluid should be changed every two years or 40,000 kilometers, with the specific interval determined by the cycle specified in the user manual. Criteria for determining whether brake fluid needs replacement: Whether brake fluid needs to be replaced mainly depends on its water content. Professional equipment is required to measure the moisture content in the brake fluid. When the measured result exceeds 3%, the brake fluid should be replaced. If it exceeds 5%, immediate replacement is necessary, as the boiling point would already be too low, directly affecting the vehicle's braking performance. It is recommended that car owners regularly use a brake fluid tester to measure the moisture content and decide whether replacement is needed. Brake fluid has hygroscopic properties, and if left unchanged for too long, the safety factor of driving will decrease. If you notice that the brake pedal feels significantly softer or the car struggles to stop, it's time to check whether the brake fluid has oxidized or deteriorated. If so, it should be replaced promptly to avoid potential hazards. Brake fluid, also known as brake liquid or hydraulic fluid, is made from refined diesel fractions with thickeners and antioxidants. When replacing brake fluid, ensure to use the original manufacturer's brake fluid to guarantee its quality.

How to Press the Clutch Slowly and Steadily?

Pressing the clutch slowly and steadily involves the following steps: 1. Place the sole of your foot on the clutch to avoid missing it; 2. When starting, quickly press the clutch down, shift into gear, and then rapidly release it to the half-engaged state. If on a slope, slightly press the accelerator when reaching the half-engaged state to increase engine speed, ensuring a smooth start; 3. When downshifting, first reduce the vehicle speed, then quickly press the clutch to shift gears, controlling the clutch to prevent abnormal wear and gear-shifting jerks; 4. During upshifting, press the accelerator to increase engine speed, then quickly press the clutch and slowly release it while slightly pressing the accelerator to provide sufficient power after shifting; 5. While driving, avoid keeping your foot on the clutch pedal or pressing it unnecessarily, as this can cause wear and reduce the clutch's lifespan.

How to Deal with Fog on the Windshield?

Methods to defog the windshield include: turning on the heater, opening the windows, using chemical products, and cooling to remove fog. Here are the details: Using the Heater to Remove Fog: In northern regions, after clearing snow from the vehicle, a thin layer of fog often remains on the windows. Turning on the heater at this time will quickly clear the fog. Some vehicles have a one-touch defogging feature, which also uses this principle to achieve defogging. Opening the Windows to Remove Fog: Sometimes, the fog on the windshield is caused by the hot air exhaled by passengers. Opening the windows can dissipate the hot air. However, this method works well in the south but is not recommended in the north, as the cold air from opening the windows is unbearable for many. Using Chemical Products to Remove Fog: These can be purchased at many 4S stores and auto repair shops. Applying the chemical product to the windshield prevents further fogging. Cooling to Remove Fog: The reason the windshield fogs up is due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the glass. Adjusting both temperatures to a similar level will naturally eliminate the fog.
