Jakarta, Spasi-id.com - you've heard of even seeing a burning car on the highway. Actually, it doesn't have to happen if the rider isn't reckless.
Well, to avoid burning cars on the highway, there are some preventive tips to be made.
Here are the steps, as if from an Auto2000 blog, Wednesday (31 / 8 / 222).
- Modify cars
Calculate if you want to do a car modification, let alone a car electrical system. Try to have a discussion with the official repair technician to account for any risks that can happen.
One example of modifications that could potentially cause a fire is changing a headlight or foglamp with less bright reasons. Although it's trivial, it changes the load of car electricity.
And don't forget, modifications to the components of the car can cause a warranty to fall if at any point you claim a malfunction and it turns out that's why it's a technical change.
- Put something flammable in the hood
There must have been some of you who'd forgotten to put a car wash cloth inside the hood. Or put a used cloth cleaning spare parts so carelessly that it's left inside the hood.
The point is, avoid putting burning things inside the hood. Call it a rag, gloves, foam, and plastic. The object if exposed to heat sources like a exhaust pipe could cause a fire.
- No matter motor oil
Because of something, there could be a leak in the motor oil. Engine oil drops can burn when it hits heat like exhaust pipes. Besides, if you don't regularly replace the oil according to the provisions, then the chemical compound in the oil will change.
The changes will affect machines that are fast-heating, components in them are worn out, and there's a potential fire if they're blown. Therefore do regular service at the official workshop. Periodic service, the engine area is also checked to see the risk of leaking and damage to oil systems, fuel and electricity.
- Park near the source of fire
Because of the rush, you probably didn't realize that next to the car there was a source of fire, like a garbage can. Especially when it turns out that the trash can just got burned.
It's not impossible to fire the rest of the burning can hit sensitive cars like electrical wires. Therefore, when you stop make sure your car is safe from the heat source first.
- Save the flammable items
Avoid storing flammable items in a car cabin, like gasoline, tinner, liquid perfume, and a gas lighter.
It contains active materials that if placed in a closed space with high temperatures it could potentially fire and cause fires.
