Attack Frost in winter, as usual, was sudden. But this winter for motorists is not the first, and in poorer times necessity was a whole lot of imagination. Therefore we offer ten people's councils to morning motorist not by dancing angry penguins around the frozen "Swallows".

Do not wash!

Refrain from washing your iron friend because sharp temperature drop will kill the paint coating machines and polishing can be dulled. If you do know to wash the car, before cleaning it is desirable handle door lock and window seals, as well as Plug and lock the gas tank with a special silicone sprays.
Immediately after washing is not stingy and handle the car with hot wax. This paint will not suffer so much, and you will be less likely to wash the car. Also after leaving the washer must be intensively potormozit′, not to primerzli pads. Yet it is advisable not to place on the night of the car on the "hammer". Let is pass.

Wear with a disturbing case "

Love in winter skate, love WD40 wear! The sharp change of temperature (condensation, then freeze), and door locks can not open. Many before the onset of winter, stocking up on "magic" cartridges to thaw out the lock or break the neotkručivaûŝuûsâ nut. Bryznut to raziku, Yes will throw in the trunk. And in the trunk of it confusing, there is no need to be first. So carry a. How to carry a key to 10 (to battery terminals) and work gloves, that it was all together and warm.
Comfort, of course, questionable, to say the least, but what can you do. It would be nice to have a set of fuses have in store, a janitor, omyvajku. This, of course, carry with them not to. As for the "prikurivaniâ". But in the trunk, they will not be superfluous. You can open and door lock without spray-heat switch on the fire lighters or matches and gently rotate.

Just don't start!

In severe frost do not immediately start the car. The main reason for the engine failure in the Frost-"dead" battery. Before their mooring lines to "invigorate". Make it very simple. Turn the ignition key to first position to have electrical and instrument panel. Pomigajte then distant light 10-15 seconds. This is done in order to warm the electrolyte in the battery and increase its capacity. However, in such a short period you do not risk its plant. Then you can turn off the lights and start the engine.

Good heat "from evil Morozov

This thing I podglâdel a few years ago in Siberia. Frost was about 30 degrees. While the men čertyhalis′ in the parking lot, taking a turn for the transformer and its guard, greedily collecting "poltinniki", heave the cigarette lighter on a sled from machine to machine, my little lady in a fur coat has brought home a good heater heat "(the light of this, flat). Put it under the hood its l ' Tojotki ", included into the socket (power strip she was lying in the trunk) and uporhala in the shop. Returned 15 minutes later, the car start "with poltyčka". The men smoked nervously on the sidelines. But in a woman's arsenal still have a hairdryer.

More gasoline!

Gasoline in the tank should always be more than half. Remember, the more air in the tank, the more water vapor it contains. They crystallize and microcrystals in fuel, accumulated at the bottom and "kill" the gasoline pump and fuel system. Do not wait until the indicator light turns on, shows the amount of fuel the stove-arrow wrap at the gas station.

Check the pressure!

Tire pressure due to large fluctuations in temperature can significantly vary. This, of course, could affect the adhesion of the wheels on the road (in particular may be on slippery surfaces and in the snow). Therefore, when strong frost and temperature differences, it is necessary to check the tire pressure.

The glass is steamed, if ...

…in bitter cold, having come to the parking lot, you use the special mixture consisting of one part of a saturated solution of salt and two parts of glycerol. This mixture should be applied before leaving, because it protects the glass from Frost during 2-3 hours.
Misting also Windows will prevent a strong solution of table salt (2 tbsp in a glass of water). It will help you to quickly clean the cold glass. Cooked solution wipe a glass until it does not melt the Frost and ice, and then wipe the window with a soft, dry cloth. In addition, the glass of the car not steamed, if their damp salt, wrapped in gauze.

Mudguards in winter needs

Mud flaps are needed not only to pass the inspection and not only in the warmer months. Optimally, if they are made of elastic material, to a light kick to throw off the hard walls. It is important that the front wheels do not put over all this merzkuû Goo on thresholds, for spite of ice under the front door a very palpable hit bumps in the road.

In the supermarket!

Warm parking at major hypermarkets are a godsend for those who don't have garages and who saves the minor repair. Thaw frozen washer fluid tank, wheel load, glass and lamps clean, scrape down from under the wheel arches and roofs-a sweet deal. Anywhere, bet, go shopping, go back and take her teplen′koj. Some even manage to rope brought back frozen and some wind up the machine. There it will thaw and will be restarted.

Do not cover the canvas!

There are motorists who travel only on weekends and carefully try to preserve my car. Even the awning canvas winter cover in the yard. No need to do that! Primerzšij to the metal awning will literally tear the meat. " Such frugality will cause the paint in places primerzaniâ have to recover.
