Hidden dangers and prevention of car use in summer

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and it brings us more and more difficult car environment. In addition, there are other security risks. For example, high-temperature auto-ignition of vehicles, water ingress into rainstorm vehicles, etc. So how do we avoid these situations?

Routine inspection to prevent spontaneous combustion

The most important item in vehicle inspection is the inspection of engine oil. First check whether the amount of oil is appropriate; secondly, check whether the oil quality is up to standard.

Check the oil quality

We use the oil caliper to determine the amount of oil and whether it needs to be replenished. A small amount of oil on the oil caliper is then applied to the white paper to judge the quality of the oil by the color. If the color is tan, the oil must be replaced; the color is yellow, and the fluidity is good, it does not need to be replaced.

Check glass water

The consumption of glassy water in the summer is staggering. Apart from normal use, the portion that is evaporated by high temperature is also very large. Therefore, we must regularly check the glass water to see if it needs to be supplemented. If you do not add or feel trouble yourself, you can ask the relevant staff to help you when you wash, refuel, and maintain. In case of emergencies, pure water can be used instead of glass water. In addition, in emergency situations, we can use pure water instead of glass water. However, this is only temporary.

Check brake fluid

The replacement of brake oil is generally carried out in our daily maintenance, but it is also necessary for regular inspections to be carried out in our daily car. Under normal circumstances, we check if the amount of oil is sufficient. If it is found that it is less than normal, it is best to add it in time.

Clean the engine compartment

Dust, fallen leaves and other debris in the upper part of the engine room must also be cleaned. If oil leaks from the engine compartment, the high temperatures in the summer can easily cause the falling leaves to reach the ignition point, causing the vehicle to self-ignite.
