How to add antifreeze, where to add car antifreeze

Antifreeze is a kind of coolant that contains special additives, so it is also called coolant. Judging from the name, it has two main functions, antifreeze and cooling. The antifreeze function is to ensure that the car can be used normally in cold climates, and the cooling function is to allow the car's engine to be cooled under continuous high-temperature working conditions.For some friends who just bought a car, I don’t knowHow to add antifreezeIt is normal. Let's take a look at the relevant knowledge of filling antifreeze.

First of all, the car needs to be replaced and added with antifreeze every two years or 60,000 kilometers. When adding the antifreeze, we must look at its boiling point and freezing point.Adding antifreeze is very simple. Open the hood and find the antifreeze pot. Some cars have two antifreeze pots. One is for the transmission and the other is for the engine. Usually, the antifreeze pots are spherical. , Also called an expansion pot, open the lid and putPour the car antifreeze into the antifreeze pot.

Pay attention when adding antifreeze, do not add too much, generally there is a water level on the potIf not, just add it to the middle of the pot. Do not mix antifreezes of different brands and colors. The formulations may be different. Mixing may cause chemical reactions and cause the antifreeze to lose its proper performance. Do not mix with water either. The freezing point of the water is low and contains impurities. Over time, it will form scale and cause blockage.
