Tools: prepare an iron wire of more than 30cm, preferably bend a buckle with pliers, and prepare an internal six flower screwdriver.

Steps of how to install a tachometer:

1. Pull down the trim panel by hand from the front and middle of the trim panel. There are two expansion screws under the instrument panel. Lift the middle cylinder by hand to remove the screws. The two are the same.

2. Remove the trim panel and keep it for future use. Remove the tachometer and cover it again. It is beautiful. Pull the instrument panel in a straight line towards your body and shake it slightly left and right to remove it. The tachometer and clock plug shall be wrapped with white tape.

3. Use iron wire to lead the tachometer plug to the instrument panel and plug it in. The tachometer rotates and stabilizes between 800-900 revolutions, indicating that the instrument is in good condition. Install the instrument panel back to its original position and replace the two screws just removed.

4. Screw the screw into the reserved position between the tachometer and the clock with a screwdriver, and fasten the cover plate.

5. Adjust the time. There are two buttons behind the clock, one forward and one backward.

The tachometer can remind us what gear the car is driving in. We may all have had the experience that when the road we are traveling on is very flat and the road conditions are good, we can easily reach 80 km / h or even higher with the fourth gear. However, the engine speed will be high at this time, which will correspondingly increase the fuel consumption. If we look at the tachometer, hehe, you will not hesitate to engage the fifth gear. The tachometer can also help novice drivers practice difficult starting operations. At present, in most parts of our country, the coach cars in driving schools are basically manual (of course, there are special automatic C2 driving tests in some places). In the process of manual car practice, it seems that a very simple start actually hurts the brains of many students. We might as well think about it. Who hasn't turned off in the process of driving license test we have personally experienced, In particular, the "half slope start" really made us anxious. In short, the tachometer on the instrument panel is not just to show the speed of the engine, nor is it a decorative decoration. Its hidden functions are actually very practical.
