Nanjing Iveco specially prepared for you to use the summer car safety tips, I hope to help you in the hot summer safe and comfortable driving.
Pay attention to tire pressure and wear
With high temperatures in summer, unsafe incidents caused by tires while driving occur from time to time, and it has become one of the biggest hidden dangers affecting driving safety in summer. In high temperature weather, with the temperature and road surface temperature gradually rising, high speed or long distance driving, tire pressure is easy to rise, triggering a tire blowout. In order to be safe, please keep an eye on Iveco-Polystar's TPMS real-time tire pressure monitoring system, which can monitor the tire pressure in real time to ensure that it is within the safe range, thus effectively reducing the risk of flat tires, so that your driving is more peace of mind and smooth.
You should also observe the wear and tear of your vehicle's tires during the week. Once the tire tread wears down to the marked height, you need to replace the tires with new ones, or else it will be easy to get a flat tire due to insufficient tire strength.
Keep an eye on the temperature to avoid heat stroke
When traveling by car in hot weather, you need to be aware of heat stroke and dehydration. To avoid this, you need to carry enough water with you and keep your car's cooling system running properly. If you drive for a long time in hot conditions, you will also be prone to fatigue and drowsiness. Iveco Jusei is equipped with the third-generation IVECONNECT Intelligent Interactive System, which can cool you down and help to raise your spirits by simply saying, "Hi Yi, turn on the air-conditioning and adjust the temperature down a bit.
In addition, try to avoid direct sunlight for a long time parking, conditions permit, in front of the windshield placed in the sunscreen mat, can also be very good to reduce the temperature inside the car.
Good Habits to Eliminate Hidden Dangers
Many friends in the summer habitually wearing slippers driving, which is a particularly dangerous behavior, every year because slippers stuck in the vehicle gas pedal accidents have occurred, there is no small safety hazards, please be sure to avoid.
Many parents due to momentary negligence, resulting in children locked in the car, the high temperature of the car in the summer under the closed environment will lead to children suffocation, parents and friends must pay attention!
Regular maintenance to avoid spontaneous combustion
When it comes to summer car safety, there is no greater risk than spontaneous combustion. Spontaneous combustion is usually caused by electrical leaks or fuel leaks inside the vehicle: when a car lacks proper maintenance, its parts will deteriorate due to prolonged use, and the wiring may be broken, all of which may lead to electrical leaks. In the summer heat, the temperature inside the engine compartment rises dramatically, and accumulated oil stains can become a potential risk of spontaneous combustion. Therefore, it is important to pay particular attention to regular maintenance and repairs during the summer months to prevent deterioration or malfunction of the electrical and oil systems.
In addition, please do not place flammable and explosive items in the car in summer, such as lighters, perfume bottles, foam cleaners and other canned items, which are susceptible to thermal expansion at high temperatures and can cause explosions. Similarly, cell phone batteries or car recorder batteries in the car for a long time under the sun there are potential safety hazards.
