Tips to keep your car cool on hot days

Park in the shade: If possible, park your car under trees, the shade of buildings or other sheltered areas. This is the best way to reduce the heat inside the car cabin. Parts such as the steering wheel, leather seats and metal parts that absorb heat will cause the car cabin to heat up a lot when parked in direct sunlight.

Use sun visor: When it is not possible to park in the shade, drivers can use sunshades for the front windshield and windows to minimize direct sunlight on the interior parts of the cabin.

Heat insulation film: This is an effective measure to reduce the temperature in the car due to direct sunlight.

Open the window: Even on a cool day, the temperature inside the cabin can rise significantly, not to mention on extremely hot days. The driver can open the window about 20 mm when leaving the car to create ventilation and reduce the heat accumulated in the car.

To make the cabin space cooler, users canCover the heat absorbing parts with a towel.such as steering wheel, leather seats. Use light-colored cotton towels to avoid heat absorption when drying the car in direct sunlight. Drivers can use a damp towel to cover the seat, increasing efficiency.

Continuous opening and closing:When getting in the car, the driver opens one window and continuously opens/closes the opposite window. The continuous opening and closing process will help fresh air flow into the car, removing hot air inside the cabin.

Remote car start system:Currently, remote start technology is chosen by many people. From a distance of about 100 m, the driver can start the car in advance via the button on the key, helping to start the air conditioning system to cool the cabin. However, users should choose devices from reputable brands to avoid possible risks.

Use a retractable roof: Retractable awnings are a popular choice when it is impossible to find a shady parking spot. These types of awnings can be stored in the trunk, but users will have to spend time installing them after parking.
