Rainy season driving over the water Note the use of low-grade bit high speed

Driving rainy season, the owner is most concerned about fear of cars in the unfamiliar section encountered in the water. Here, give you the owner to provide several tips in case of water.

The first is to pay attention to the depth and brake water, to prevent the engine stalling and brake failure. Heavy rainy days, there is water on the pavement, we must pay attention to the depth of water, such as the water depth exceeds the height of the exhaust pipe, it is easy to turn off the vehicle, so shallow water routes should be as far as possible. The driver may be watered carefully if he / she does not pass the deep water road and the water depth exceeds half the tire height. After passing the water, heed the foot brake and the handbrake, as braking performance may be diminished after flooding. If the proven water depth over the entire tire, it is not wading, otherwise, the vehicle engine is very easy to turn off, this time, you must take a detour or wait for the depth of water to reduce after wading.

Second is to understand the water section of the road conditions. Rainy day road surface water is very muddy, but if it is not a fast-flowing surface, through the observation or can determine the general situation of the bottom. Where there is a general spray and whirlpool is likely to have larger stones and other obstacles, while the water is relatively calm place generally deeper water, open water surface and more evenly broken spray, usually at the end of gravel Shallow layer, is a more ideal place to drive through. In addition, pay attention that during or after the heavy rain, shoulder and road base soaked and washed by the rain may become soft or even collapse, then be careful driving, wading, avoid rollover, car accident.

Finally, the car wading, to protect the car appliances and air intakes. Wading, it is best to check all the electrical appliances in the engine compartment, bare electrical wiring and connection is best to seal the package, if necessary, to change and adjust the position and height of the engine intake and exhaust. The moment the car enters the water should be as smooth as possible, if the storm will spark water, easy to wet the car appliances, or water will enter the engine's intake system.

Therefore, driving wading section, the first reduction of gear to reduce the speed, so that the engine speed maintained at 4000 rev / min or so, so that the engine torque to play out to offset the resistance, to maintain a smooth and uniform speed. At the same time, be sure to control the throttle, do not violently step on the accelerator, otherwise resistance will increase, the tire is easy to slip, but also because of the engine intake soared and inhalation of water droplets.
