Affected by strong cold air, many cities in the south have experienced great cooling, and some areas have also ushered in heavy snowfall. Snow was falling in many parts of Hunan, and many vehicles were covered in snow. Many car owners have not encountered this situation, do not know what to do when the body is covered with snow, some people directly use hot water to melt the snow, the result is heartbreaking.
On December 27, a video released by a car owner in Hunan caused a lot of people to discuss. The owner of the car said that it was snowing heavily in Hunan, and his car was parked outdoors, and the body was covered with snow. In the morning, the owner of the car was ready to drive out, but found that the glass of the car was frozen, so he asked his friend what to do, and the friend told him to pour a basin of hot water.
The owner followed his friend's advice, went home and took hot water and spilled it directly on the glass of the car. The snow on the body did melt away quickly, but the next scene broke the owner's heart. After pouring hot water, the snow on the car was gone, but the glass of the car began to crack, and in just a few minutes, the glass of the car was covered with cracks.
Judging from the video posted by the owner, the side glass of the window has all become spider web-like, as if it has been hit by a heavy object. If it were not for the window film, it is estimated that these glasses would have been broken to the ground long ago. The owner of the car looked at his car with great pain, and did not expect that a basin of hot water actually made the car glass explode.
After netizens saw the video of the owner, they also left messages to the owner, and some netizens said that they felt the owner's heartache across the screen. Some car owners also said that it is rare to see such a large snow in the south, and the owners have no experience, and they will certainly not listen to the advice of friends after this time.
What should I do if my body is covered in snow?
If the body is covered with snow, you can first sweep away the snow on the surface of the body, and the snow on the glass and side windows can be gently scraped off with a small card. Then start the vehicle and let the vehicle heat up in advance. Opening the vehicle hot car in advance can make the water temperature rise as soon as possible, which is good for post-processing, window icing or glass defogging.
However, remember not to turn on the air conditioner after starting the vehicle, because the vehicle is parked outdoors overnight, and it is a cold start when starting the vehicle, and the water temperature in the car has not yet reached the appropriate temperature at this time, and turning on the air conditioner will increase the burden of the engine.
Wait in place for a while, wait for the water temperature of the vehicle to rise, the snow on the surface of the car will begin to melt, and then use the snow removal tool to remove the thin ice from the windows.
In minus a few degrees Celsius, the body is easily frozen, and the door handles and windows are frozen. If you find that the door is frozen when you open the door, do not use brute force to directly pull hard. Using brute force to pull the door, it is possible to pull the door handle off.
You can clear the snow near the doorknob first, knock on the door a few times, and then try to pull. But be careful when pulling on the door and don't push hard.
How to avoid being covered in heavy snow?
To avoid getting covered in heavy snow, park your car in an underground garage. If there is no underground garage in the community, when you park at night, you can put a coat on your car or put unwanted quilts and paper shells on the front of the car or on the hood.
Editor's Short Comment:
This year's winter is colder than usual, and the southern cities that have not snowed for a long time have also ushered in snowfall, and many car owners do not know how to protect their cars because they have not encountered such heavy snow. If you don't want your car, because of heavy snow damage, be sure to understand the precautions or methods of clearing snow in advance, do not blindly pour hot water on the car.
