recently
A car owner's car in Jinhua, Zhejiang
Spontaneous combustion when no one is using it
Heavy losses
And the "fuse" turned out to be a data cable?
Originally
The vehicle was charging at the time
In this case
The vehicle does not go into hibernation
And at this time
The USB port in the car is plugged into a mobile phone data cable
The data cable interface is heated due to a fault
Eventually, the vehicle will spontaneously combust
△ Surveillance video shows that the passenger seat of the vehicle suddenly burst into flames.
Do you have the same habits?
After charging your phone in the car
Only unplug the phone, not the cable
As everyone knows, the data cable is plugged in for a long time
There is a potential danger of faulty short circuit and fire
The weather is getting hotter, and you should be more careful that your car "gets hot"
In addition to unplugging the data cable after charging
The following "time bombs" should not be placed in the car
What not to put in the car in the heat?
What should I do if my vehicle catches fire?
Turn off the power supply after the car is turned off
If you smell burning or find smoke on the front hood while driving, you should immediately pull over and turn off the ignition and cut off the power supply.
The engine is on fire, be careful when opening the front hood
If there is a fire and smoke in the engine compartment of the car, be careful not to open the front hood all at once. This is because a large amount of air can cause a deflagration.
The front hood should be opened with a small slit first, and a fire extinguisher should be used to spray the fire from the gap into the engine compartment.
The fire is too strong, please leave immediately
If the fire is too fierce to be controlled, personnel should stay away from the vehicle as soon as possible and then call the fire alarm number 119 for help to ensure personal safety.
How to choose a vehicle fire extinguisher?
- Be sure to purchase through formal channels and check whether the CCC compulsory certification mark is applied.
- Vehicle-mounted fire extinguishers can be selected as dry powder type and water-based type. Dry powder fire extinguishers can extinguish more types of fires, and water-based fire extinguishers have better resistance to re-ignition.
- The on-board fire extinguisher also needs to be checked regularly to ensure that the bottle is not damaged and that the pointer is in the green area.

How to place the car fire extinguisher?
It is recommended to place within easy reach
1. Left front door storage compartment
2. Co-pilot glove box
3. Fix under the seat
Secure it under the seat with a fire extinguisher. This prevents the fire extinguisher from rolling down to the brakes and accelerator during driving.
It needs to be fixed in the trunk
If you put the fire extinguisher in the trunk, please be sure to fix it to avoid rolling around in the trunk and not finding it in the first place when you need to use it.
Do you also have a phone that only unplugs the phone and does not unplug the cable
This dangerous habit?
Hurry up and forward it to remind the people around you
