Since the air filter finely filters the air entering the engine cylinder, whether it can be kept clean and unobstructed is related to the life of the engine. It is understood that the air filter is prone to blockage when walking on a smoke-filled road. If a dirty air filter is used during driving, it will cause insufficient intake of the engine and incomplete fuel combustion, which will cause the engine to fail to work. Stable, power drops, fuel consumption increases and other phenomena occur. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the air filter clean.

According to the maintenance cycle of the vehicle, when the ambient air quality is generally good, it is sufficient to clean the air filter regularly every 5000 kilometers. However, when the ambient air quality is poor, it is best to clean it every 3000 kilometers in advance. , Car owners can choose to go to the 4S shop to clean up, or you can do it yourself.

Manual cleaning method:

The way to clean the air filter is actually very simple. Just open the engine compartment cover, lift the air filter box cover forward, take out the air filter element, and gently tap the end face of the filter element. If it is a dry filter element, it is recommended to use compressed air from the inside. Blow it out to remove the dust on the filter element; if it is a wet filter element, it is recommended to wipe it off with a rag. Remember not to wash with gasoline or water. If the air filter has been severely clogged, you need to replace it with a new one.

To replace the air filter, it is best to buy original parts from a 4S shop. The quality is guaranteed. Air filters of other foreign brands sometimes have insufficient air intake, which will affect the power performance of the engine.

Air conditioning is also required in the car in winter

As the weather gets colder, some car owners close the windows without turning on the air conditioner. Many car owners say:’I am afraid of dust when I open the window, and I am afraid of the cold when the air conditioner is turned on, and it consumes fuel, so I only turn on the internal loop while driving. 'Does this approach work? Driving like this is wrong. Because the air in the car is limited, if you drive for a long time, it will cause the air in the car to be turbid and bring certain hidden dangers to driving safety.

It is recommended that car owners turn on the air conditioner after closing the windows. If you are afraid of the cold, you can use the cooling function without using the air conditioner fan, so that the air in the car can be exchanged with the outside air. At this time, for dusty roads, it is very important to maintain the cleanliness of the air conditioner filter. It can filter the air that enters the cabin from the outside and improve the cleanliness of the air. The replacement time and cycle of the air-conditioning filter is generally to be replaced when the vehicle travels 8000 kilometers to 10000 kilometers, and usually only needs to be cleaned regularly.

Manual cleaning method:

The car air conditioner filter is generally located in the toolbox in front of the co-pilot. Just take out the filter sheet and find a place that does not interfere with the wind to slap the dust out, but remember not to wash it with water. However, the reporter still recommends that car owners go to the 4S shop to find technicians to help clean up. In addition to the more secure disassembly and assembly technology, you can also borrow an air gun in the car wash room to completely blow off the dust on the filter.

Use the outer loop and inner loop cleverly

During the driving process, if car owners cannot correctly grasp the use of internal and external circulation, the muddy air will cause great harm to the body.

Using the external circulation, you can breathe in the fresh air outside the car, driving at high speed, the air in the car will feel muddy after a long time, people are uncomfortable, and you cannot open the windows, you should use the external circulation to send some fresh air in; but if the air conditioner is turned on, In order to reduce the temperature in the car, do not open the outer loop at this time. Some people always complain that the air conditioner is not effective in summer. In fact, many people accidentally set the car into an external circulation state.

In addition, since most car owners are driving in the urban area, we remind car owners that it is best to use the internal loop in traffic jams during rush hours, especially in tunnels. When the car starts to drive at a normal uniform speed, it should be turned on to the outer loop state. When encountering a dusty road, when closing the windows, don’t forget to close the outer circulation to block the external airflow.
