What are the precautions for car maintenance in summer

Sihaiwang: like people, cars need to be carefully cared and maintained to improve their service life. And ensure the safety of the car. So it's very important to maintain your car. Especially in summer, the car maintenance should be careful. So what should we pay attention to in summer? Let's take a look at it with Xiaobian~

What should we pay attention to for car maintenance in summer?

1、 Prevention of water shortage in high temperature in summer

When driving in hot weather, the water in the water tank evaporates faster. Always check the cooling water volume and the water temperature gauge. In case of water shortage, stop the machine immediately, but do not add water immediately. Instead, replenish water after idling and cooling down, and pay attention not to open the radiator cover immediately to prevent scalding.

2、 High temperature in summer requires tire blowout prevention

In summer, when the temperature is high and the tire temperature increases, the rubber is easy to soften and the tire will burn seriously. It is very easy to blow out the tire when the vehicle is running at high speed. Check the tire pressure at any time during driving. If the tire is overheated or the air pressure is too high, park the car in a cool place to cool down. Do not pour cold water on it or deflate it. Otherwise, it will lead to tire blowout and early tire damage.

3、 High temperature in summer to prevent air resistance

Due to the high temperature in summer, the speed of heat dissipation is limited, the driving speed of the car is slow, the engine speed is high, and the heat dissipation is difficult, so it is easy to cause "air resistance" during driving. Sometimes it is difficult to start the engine after stopping for a few minutes, so that the supply of oil is interrupted. In case of air resistance, the driver shall stop the vehicle immediately to cool down and eliminate the fault. If your vehicle is hydraulically braked, the brake fluid is prone to air 'air resistance' when driving at high temperature and high speed, which makes the brake suddenly fail and cause an accident.

4、 High temperature in summer to prevent slipping

Check the working condition of the water pump and the tension of the fan belt regularly. The fan belt shall not be stained with oil to prevent the fan belt from slipping. Always pay attention to the leakage of water pump, and at the same time, pay attention to fully open the louver.
