What should I do if I park my car outdoors in summer?

Parking the car in the underground garage, or parking the car in some visible shade, such as a sunshade or a tree, or covering the car with clothes to prevent sunlight, or covering the windshield with a sunshade can also effectively protect the car from sunlight.

Harm of Exposure If the car is exposed to the sun for too long, the decoration and leather parts will release harmful substances such as benzene due to high temperature, especially for new cars. Whether it is leather products or plasticizing materials, automobile interiors use adhesives or other organic solvents, some of which contain compounds such as benzene, toluene and styrene, so all new cars have this smell.

However, it should be noted that as long as the organic substances in the car are exposed to the sun for one hour, the concentration of these organic compounds will be five times higher than usual. What's more, there may be a danger of spontaneous combustion!

Where should I park my car to prevent sun exposure?

1. When parking in summer, you should park your car where there is no sunshine for a long time. Underground parking or arbor is the first choice. If conditions do not permit, you can use some tall buildings and park in the shadows they cast.

2. Pay attention to the back of the car.

Look for the direction of the sun, and try to park your car on the road with the rear facing the sun, because the rear glass of the car is much smaller than the front glass, and there is much less sunshine. Moreover, the front dashboard and leather parts are also "can't afford to hurt".

3. Make sure that all four wheels are parked on the same level.

If the car is parked on high and low roads, the tire at the lowest position will be under excessive pressure, which will cause the steel wire inside the tire to deform and damage the tire, and there will be a danger of puncture.

4. Don't stop under the tree.

Some car owners like to park their cars under trees, but they don't know that big trees can bring you trouble while providing shade for their cars. Some trees will drop some transparent and colorless gum at high temperature, which is difficult to remove. In addition, bird droppings may fall. If it cannot be removed in time, it will leave traces in a short time and corrode the car paint for a long time.

There is a clever trick to cool down quickly. In hot weather, after the car has stopped for a few hours, as long as the door is opened, there will be bursts of heat waves. At this time, many people will choose to turn on the air conditioner immediately, which will not only have no obvious effect, but also increase the load of the air conditioner. How to cool the car correctly and quickly?

1. Spray water to cool down. You can prepare a spray bottle, mix alcohol and water according to the ratio of 1: 10, open the door and spray it into the car a few times, then close the door without opening the window. After a minute or two, the temperature inside the car will drop.

2. Opening and closing the door repeatedly is the simplest and most practical method. First shake the window of one door of the cab, and then repeatedly open and close the door of the auxiliary cab 10 times. Within 2 minutes, the temperature inside the car can drop by nearly10 C.

3. Polish the car, that is, coat the car with a layer of polymer paint care agent containing ultraviolet reflector to reduce the harm of direct sunlight to the car, which is equivalent to rubbing a layer of "sunscreen" on the car. However, the cost of this sunscreen is very high, and it usually costs about 300 yuan at a time. If you don't wash your car, the sunscreen effect can last for three to four weeks.

4. Put the sun visor on the windshield before parking. When the vehicle is parked, the sun visor is placed on the front and rear windshields, which can prevent the temperature inside the vehicle from rising due to direct sunlight and achieve the effect of cooling. In the market of automobile decoration products, the price of cheap sun visor is about tens of yuan, and the sun visor with high reflectivity has better effect.
