What are the precautions for using a car in winter?

In winter, the windows are often frozen and frosty, obstructing the line of sight and affecting safety, so in winter, it is necessary to focus on checking the relevant heating devices, such as windshields, side window air outlets, rear window electric heaters, etc., so that they are in good condition.

In winter, warm water should be used for maintenance and cleaning of vehicles. Especially after the engine heats up, the temperature of the front of the car is high, and cleaning with cold water causes rapid cooling, which is very unfavorable to the surface paint, and the engine cannot be washed directly. After rinsing, open the door in time to wipe off the water traces to prevent the residual water at the door crack from freezing and freezing the door.

Do not force the windows to open and close when they are frozen, especially the electric windows, and wait for them to melt naturally before using them.

Change the oil with low viscosity. In this regard, car owners must pay attention to the fact that in winter, the high viscosity of the engine oil will increase the burden on the operation of the internal parts of the engine. Increase the fuel consumption of the car.

So, it is recommended for everyone in the winter time. Be sure to change the oil with a lower viscosity. This is more conducive to the work of the engine.

In winter, the road is slippery after the snow, pay attention to the steady speed and uniform operation when driving, such as sharp acceleration, sharp braking, sudden turning, etc. are taboo for snow driving. When starting, it is necessary to slowly lift the clutch and refuel lightly, and start evenly. Smooth acceleration while traveling, driving at medium and low speeds.

The deceleration is mainly based on engine blockage, and the foot brake should be in the form of point braking, not to be stepped on to death. Cars without ABS should pay special attention to prevent side skidding.

Antifreeze issues. Check for fluid shortage, deterioration, and replenish or replace if needed. Antifreeze may seem like a trivial matter, but it has a great impact on the car, from clogging the pipeline to corroding and damaging the cylinder block.

Therefore, choose and use antifreeze carefully, one is not to mix, and the other is not to use fake and shoddy products. In addition, in general, antifreeze should be changed every two years, and it is best to rinse the cooling system with clean water before replacing it.

I think the most important thing to pay attention to is to change the oil. The normal flow of engine oil is an important factor to ensure the normal operation of the engine, so in the particularly cold winter, you should choose a low viscosity oil, the lower the viscosity, the better the fluidity, just like Kunlun Tianrun KR9-T series products, 0W-20 0W-40 viscosity can perfectly protect the engine comfortable winter.

Precautions are:1Tires: If the vehicle is often parked outside, low temperatures may cause the tires to harden and crack, so check them frequently.

If you don't understand, you can check the official website of Kunlun Lubrication, which has a detailed description of all kinds of required fluids, and there are complete types.

3.Battery: Batteries are susceptible to low temperatures, and regular maintenance can avoid unnecessary trouble.

4.Pay attention to the residual water droplets on the body: When washing the car, especially when washing the car by yourself, it is necessary to wipe it dry in time, including the gaps of all the doors, and the residual water droplets are likely to cause the doors and cores to be frozen at night.

5.Lighting system: In winter, low visibility weather such as fog and snow is prone to occur, and the use of lights will be more frequent, which requires regular maintenance.

6.Small animals under the car: When the weather is cold, stray cats and dogs like to get under the car and the wheels to keep warm. Therefore, it is necessary to check more before starting the vehicle to avoid injury.

1. Warm-up time.

Winter hot car is a must to drive every day, but not like most car owners, in situ hot car for 10 minutes, the correct approach should be, light the fire and wait until the car runs smoothly, you can drive, but pay attention, do not step on the accelerator to accelerate, keep running at a low speed, and you can drive normally after the temperature comes up. Keep in mind that it's important to warm up the car and not take too long.

2. Wash the car in time after snowfall.

Wash your car in time after the snow, and as long as it is covered with snow, you must immediately wash the snow off with clean water. Snow contains corrosive components, whether it is paint, chassis, tires, or wheels, and long-term snow cover can cause injuries. Car washing after snow can not be directly washed with cold water, especially after the engine heats up, the correct way is to start the car to turn on the heating system on the car, and then wipe the car with warm water.

After washing, the door should be opened to wipe off the water traces to prevent the residual water from freezing in the door cracks. Do not force the windows to open and close if they are frozen, especially the power windows.

3. Check and replace the antifreeze in time.

Cars are prone to breakdowns in winter, in fact, many problems are related to antifreeze, such as not choosing the right antifreeze, resulting in impurities in the water tank, or chemical reactions of different brands of antifreeze; Then there is the fact that the amount of antifreeze added is too much or too little. It is recommended that everyone check and replace the antifreeze in time. Care should be taken not to mix antifreeze.

4. The wiper freezes and cannot be hard started.

When the weather is cold, the temperature is low and it rains or snows, the car is prone to freezing, and the windshield wipers on the windshield are no exception. If you start the wiper forcefully, there is a high chance that the wiper motor will be damaged. The correct way to do this is to shovel the snow first, then activate the warm air and blow the wind to the front windshield to melt the snow and ice from the wipers.

5. Don't install snow chains casually.

Before installing snow chains, first make sure that your car is front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive, as the chain must be fitted to the set of tires that play a major role. Especially for automatic transmission models, it is also important to note that snow chains should be installed on both front or rear wheels at the same time. In addition, snow chains also come in sizes, so pay attention to choosing snow chains that match the size of the wheels.

1. Keep a safe distance.

When driving, the distance between vehicles should be increased, and the distance between driving on ice and snow roads should be more than 2 or 3 times that of dry roads. Be sure to drive along the ruts of the car in front of you and avoid overtaking, sharp turns, and emergency braking. When parking, you should prepare in advance, use emergency braking sparingly, and try to use the braking effect of the engine to control the speed.

When acceleration or deceleration is required, the throttle should be slowly pressed or released to prevent the drive wheels from slipping due to sudden acceleration or deceleration.

2. It is forbidden to hit the steering wheel urgently.

When steering on ice and snow roads, reduce the speed of the vehicle in advance, turn the steering wheel slowly, and pass at a constant speed to avoid suddenly hitting the cold rudder, otherwise it is easy to cause the car body to lose control, affect the passage of other vehicles, and even cause accidents.

3. Pay attention to controlling the speed.

Driving in rain and snow is the most taboo to drive too fast, even on the highway, the best speed is kept below 40 kilometers per hour, once the road surface is icy to be more cautious. In addition, when driving on snow and ice, you must be cautious when using brakes. Point braking can be used to reduce the speed and avoid emergency braking as much as possible.

The engine can be used to slow down and brake, and hand brakes can be used flexibly if necessary. Prevent the vehicle from skidding or tail-spinning caused by braking.

4. Start under low temperature and severe cold weather conditions.

Before starting, the vehicle should be warmed up and the engine temperature should reach more than 50 degrees Celsius before starting. Vehicles parked in the open air, the viscosity of lubricating oil is large, and the speed should be driven at a low speed for a certain distance after starting, and then gradually increase the speed when the engine temperature rises. When starting, you should slow down the throttle and increase the speed slowly, as excessive force can easily cause the drive wheels to slip on the road surface.

When stopping halfway, you should choose a dry, sunny and sheltered place to park, and take necessary anti-freezing measures. If the water is not released after a long time of parking, the engine should be started in time to maintain a certain temperature to prevent the water of the cooling system from freezing and freezing the cylinder block or cooling system parts.

With the cold wave coming, rain and snow are becoming more and more frequent, and you also need to pay more attention to your usual car. Cars, like people, can "get sick" during the cold winter months if they are not used properly. Therefore, in winter, we must be more careful in the use of the car and vehicle maintenance.

The first thing to do in winter is to replace the antifreeze in time, the outdoor temperature is generally low in winter, and the car must have enough antifreeze if it wants to run normally, otherwise the water tank is easy to be frozen and cannot circulate normally, which will cause vehicle failure. There is also a glass of water in advance, in winter to wash the front windshield with glass water to avoid freezing, which will cause damage to the wipers, but also will image the driver's sight.

The maintenance of tires can not be ignored, the weather becomes cold and you need to check whether there are cracks in the tire carcass and the detection of tire pressure, the pressure of daily driving tires is an important factor in safe driving, and the right tire pressure can protect and extend the service life of tires. If there is a crack, it is easy to cause a puncture, so please go to the 4S shop for maintenance in time.

As the temperature changes, the front windshield is prone to fogging during the use of the vehicle in winter. Press the front windshield defogging button, pay attention to the cold start, just start the air conditioner, the temperature has not risen, then be sure to press the car circulation button, help the temperature in the car to warm up.

Many car owners often feel that the car is relatively cold when using the car in winter, and at this time, the black technology of Lynk & Co has to be mentioned, the APP remote start of Lynk & Co and the seat heating function. Remote start (Remote start starts the engine remotely by key, where the principle is: the vehicle starts the engine by receiving a signal from the remote key.

The whole vehicle starting process saves the inconvenience of people entering the car to operate, and the central lock is locked when the engine is running, so that the safety has been effectively guaranteed.

There are two ways to start remotely, one is APP remote start, and the other is physical key remote start. Open the mobile app in advance to start remotely, set the temperature of the air conditioner, and turn on the seat heating function if necessary. The seat heating function is to add a heating element to the motorcycle seat, and turn on the seat heating function by accepting specific program instructions.

It is easy to operate, and can be operated in the car or remotely activated outside the car to warm up the seat in advance. Such an easy-to-use and practical function can be used in winter without fear of the cold.

1.The temperature is low in the preheating winter, the viscosity of the lubricating oil increases and is not easy to flow, after starting the engine, the engine should be kept at about 1100 rpm, so that the car can be warmed up and then start, during which the accelerator can not be slammed on the accelerator and do not let the engine speed be too high. You don't have to wait for the engine temperature to rise to the optimum before starting, as long as the pointer of the thermometer starts to rise.

2.The start in winter must be very soft and slow, so that on the one hand, the load of the engine is as small as possible when the normal operating temperature is not reached, and on the other hand, the tires are still in a stiff state when they are not warmed up, which is good for the engine, tires and safety. 3.

Gear shifting winter driving should be diligent, to drive like driving a car in the run-in period, we must pay attention to the selection of gears and oil separation, gears too low and too high are easy to make the car out of control, which is particularly important when driving on ice and snow roads. 4.When driving in winter, especially when you are just on the road, you must try to keep the car at a constant speed, and do not slow down with heavy refueling, especially on the road surface with ice and snow.

1. When the car starts, look at the water temperature after the cold car starts, and run it at idle speed; The water temperature gauge starts to move around before driving, which means that we get up in the morning and do a morning exercise, and then exercise vigorously, so as not to hurt the car.

2. In the northern region, the car should be added with antifreeze, and do not add water after adding antifreeze. Just a few days ago, our boss's Porsche froze and burst the tank because he added two bottles of mineral water to the water tank, and it cost about 20,000 yuan to repair it.

3. In winter, because the road surface is easy to freeze, the driving must be slow, otherwise it is easy to have safety accidents. Clean the front and rear windshields and reversing mirrors before traveling every day so as not to affect the vision.

4. If you are in an old snowy place in winter, you should equip the car with snow chains, especially when walking on mountain roads in snowy days, you must install snow chains and drive slowly, don't be afraid of trouble, safety first.

5. When driving, keep the distance between the vehicles, because the road is slippery, the braking distance is extended, and it is easy to make mistakes.

In winter, there will be some bad weather, such as low temperature road ice, rain and snow, foggy weather, etc. What should I pay attention to in order to drive safely and reduce damage to the vehicle?

Low temperature start: At low temperatures, many vehicles will have difficulty starting or sometimes suddenly turn off while driving. The correct approach is: the time for the vehicle to start at one time is best controlled within 5 seconds, that is, the key is twisted or the start switch is not pressed for too long.

Window defogging: Now there is a function of defogging the front and rear windows in the car, as long as you turn on the air conditioning in the car, adjust the gear to the defogging gear, and open the external circulation at the same time, it will be effective quickly.

To deal with icing: You should use a special de-icing shovel for automotive glass to slowly remove ice from between the ice cracks. If you don't have an ice or snow shovel, you can use an alcohol-based solvent to pour an appropriate amount on the wiper blades, and the ice will melt in a few minutes.

Start driving on the road: When driving a manual transmission vehicle, the start must be soft and slow, so as to "lift the clutch slowly and lightly step on the oil", which is on the one hand to make the load of the engine as small as possible when it does not reach the normal operating temperature. On the other hand, it is also a process of gradual heating up of the tires in a harder state when they are not warmed up, which is good for the engine, tires and driving safety, and the starting method of lightly pressing the accelerator is also effective for driving automatic transmission vehicles.

Downshift before turning: When turning, the center of the car is on the outside of the corner, and braking is easy to cause the vehicle to slide. Where you are, you should first downshift in the corner, and do not downshift in the corner.

Keep your distance: If the road is icy or snowy, the friction coefficient will be smaller, and the braking distance will be increased, so keep enough distance from the vehicle in front of you, and always be prepared to leave enough braking distance.

Ice and snow weather is a weather with a high incidence of accidents, and friends who need to drive should always take precautions.
