Before the midsummer heat begins, here are some car tips that all car drivers should know. Especially if you drive a car with a sunroof or frequently experience fogging in humid weather, read this article to the end. You can drive more comfortably and safely thanks to hidden features that only those in the know know.
1. Did you know about the ‘tilting function’ of sunroof vehicles?
People who drive cars with sunroofs usually just open them by pushing them back. But here, there is a little-known and useful hidden feature.
Lightly press the sunroof upward. Then, the ’tilting function’ will be activated, which opens only the back part slightly. The advantages of this function are as follows:
– Ventilate without worrying about rainwater even on rainy days – Excellent for discharging heat and moisture inside the vehicle
– Minimize noise without having to open the sunroof completely This function is especially great when the air inside is stuffy on a rainy day in midsummer.
2. Essential for humid weather! ‘Auto defog (automatic defog removal) setting’
During the rainy season or when driving at night, the windshield often fogs up, making it difficult to see. In such cases, many people manually change the direction of the heater or open the windows.
However, did you know that some vehicles have a hidden ‘auto depot function’? The method is very simple:
– Press and hold the defog removal button (defog button) for about 3 seconds
– Then, it will blink 3 times and the ‘auto defog mode’ will be activated If you set this function, the vehicle will detect the fogging and operate automatically, so you don’t have to worry about it every time. This is a must-have function, especially for beginner drivers or those who drive a lot at night.
Safe driving in summer starts with small habits.
To avoid unexpected situations while driving, it is important to have the habit of making good use of the functions prepared in advance. The two functions I introduced today are functions that are installed as standard in most vehicles, but many people often overlook them. This summer, create a more comfortable and safe driving environment with just a few simple settings!
