[Car owner's home driving skills]The cold winter is coming. Although there is still some time before the real cold, I believe that many car owners have already begun to prepare for the cold winter. So for car owners, what details should we pay attention to when using the car in winter?
What should I pay attention to when driving in winter?
Many car owners know that when using a car in winter, it is necessary to check the battery, antifreeze and other basic knowledge in time, but for daily driving, do you know what to pay attention to?
Details that should be paid attention to in winter vehicle maintenance:
■Check whether the vehicle oil can withstand low temperature, take Beijing as an example, you need to use 5W engine oil
■Check whether the vehicle antifreeze can meet the freezing point regulations, and whether it has expired
■Check whether the tire pressure is normal, whether there are cracks and aging phenomena
First of all, let's talk about driving safety, that is, the details of starting, lighting and other aspects. Don't underestimate these details. If something goes wrong, the consequences will be very serious.
After the vehicle starts, we should step on the brakes a few times to avoid hidden dangers such as brake adhesion
Let’s talk about starting first. Many car owners are used to driving directly after starting. Regardless of whether this will affect the life of the vehicle, this approach will cause certain hidden dangers to the driving safety of the vehicle, especially for vehicles parked outdoors. In cold weather, the brake system and steering system of many cars will become astringent due to the low temperature, and the smoothness and performance of their work will be affected to a certain extent. The normal state causes the danger that affects driving safety.
After starting the vehicle, turn the steering wheel left and right to make the booster pump work quickly
The correct way is that after the vehicle is started, we turn the steering wheel left and right before starting, so that the power steering oil can fully work, so that the steering system can reach the normal working state as soon as possible. Similarly, after starting, we can step on the brakes intermittently to pressurize the brake system quickly to achieve normal working conditions and ensure driving safety. or other reasons for the occurrence of adhesions.
Turn on the width indicator lights or make full use of the daytime running lights when driving
For driving in winter, we suggest that you can choose to turn on the lights during the day, because the light in winter is generally dark, especially in some places such as mountains or suburbs. Therefore, make full use of lights to protect your own Safety is very important.
Drive carefully on snowy roads
Of course, in terms of lighting selection, when driving during the day, the main purpose of turning on the lights is to remind other vehicles to pay attention to themselves, rather than lighting effects, so it is enough to choose the width indicator light, and for those who have daytime running lights For some models, this is much more worry-free, just select the daytime running light on mode.
