If the car owner has purchased auto damage insurance, they can receive compensation for rescue and cleaning costs, electrical losses, and interior damage caused by water entering the vehicle, excluding engine damage, which the owner must bear themselves. If the owner has purchased the main auto damage insurance along with additional water damage coverage, the insurance company will cover all vehicle losses. Generally, the following types of car insurance can be purchased: 1. Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance: This is a mandatory insurance that must be obtained before registering the vehicle at the DMV and must be paid on time. 2. Third-Party Liability Insurance: Third-party liability insurance serves as an effective supplement to compulsory insurance, as the latter's compensation limits are relatively low. Third-party liability insurance offers more comprehensive coverage. 3. Auto Damage Insurance: Auto damage insurance compensates for the owner's vehicle losses. The premium is closely related to the vehicle's purchase price and the number of seats; generally, the higher the vehicle price, the higher the premium. 4. Spontaneous Combustion Loss Insurance: This insurance mainly covers liability for spontaneous combustion caused by circuit aging or fuel supply issues. In the event of an accidental fire, the policyholder can claim compensation.

They also maintain good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improve the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capability, and bear the weight of the vehicle.

How to Turn Off the Flashing Security Light in the Car?

The security light on the car cannot be turned off. Generally, when the car is not started, the flashing light indicates that the car's security system is working properly. If the light continues to flash or stays on after starting the engine, it means there is an issue with the security system, and you should promptly visit a repair shop to diagnose and fix the car's anti-theft system. Possible reasons for the flashing security light include: 1. It might be a reminder to fasten the seatbelt. Once the seatbelt is fastened, the light will go into a short-circuit state. LED flashing could also indicate a damaged driver or poor contact, while the LED bulb or resistor failure is less likely. 2. Try restarting the car engine. 3. After turning off the engine and locking the doors, the flashing light is normal, indicating that the engine's electronic anti-theft system is active. If it doesn't flash, the anti-theft system may not be activated, or the car door might not be closed properly.

Should AC Be Turned On for Defogging?

Defogging does not require turning on the AC. Additional information about AC is as follows: 1. The AC button is used to activate the air conditioning's cooling function, while defogging requires heating. 2. The AC button controls the air conditioning compressor, which is used for cooling; whereas the warm air function utilizes the car's internal heat circulation and does not require activating the air conditioning compressor. Therefore, to use warm air, you only need to adjust the air conditioning settings without turning on the AC. Additional tips: To defog, start the car, turn on the warm air conditioning, and set the air circulation to external to expel the cold air from the car. After 2 to 3 minutes, switch the air circulation back to internal.

How old should a newborn be to sit in a car seat?

Newborns can only sit up completely at seven months old, so newborns can only sit in a car seat after seven months. Here is some relevant information: 1. Before seven months, the bone development of newborns has not yet reached full maturity, and the back muscles do not have sufficient support strength. They are easily injured due to the inertia of the car, so it is absolutely not recommended to let infants under seven months sit in a car seat. 2. Some newborns are more active and dislike being restrained. When sitting in a car seat, you can divert the baby's attention by singing, telling stories, or playing small games. This will prevent the baby from moving around and ensure safer seating in the car seat.
