Eight factors of spontaneous combustion in summer

In summer, hot weather has increased, and there have been a number of auto-ignition incidents. In order to avoid accidents, the following eight causes and measures for auto-ignition have been sorted out for colleagues to share. Improve safety awareness and protect life and property.

Cause one: The circuit is aging. After a period of use, the car's wires will age, the outer insulation will come off, and circuit failures or poor wire contact will cause short circuits, causing spontaneous combustion.

Measure: Check the circuit regularly. If there are any signs of rubber aging, wire heating, etc., it should be repaired in time.

Second reason: Incorrect circuit modification. Some owners often add some things, such as anti-theft devices, stereos, etc., after purchasing a new car. Some repair shops do not analyze the structure of the line, do not consider the power of the line, casually lead wires, do not add insurance, do not fix the wires, etc. These erroneous operations will cause danger.

Measures: Change the vehicle circuit as little as possible.

The reason is as follows: The engine is not cleaned for a long period of time, and sludge in the cabin prevents heat dissipation, resulting in excessive temperature or battery terminals causing ignition due to impurities and oil.

Measure: Check carefully and find that the engine compartment or the terminal is dirty. Clean up promptly.

Reason 4: Oil leakage. Since most of the oils are made of rubber, cracks in the rubber will cause leakage of gasoline.

Measures: Regularly check the oil circuit, find problems and replace them in time to keep the entire system clean and tidy.

Cause five: Static electricity causes fire. Due to some clothing, seat covers and other reasons, if the static electricity in the car accumulates to a certain extent, a fire may also occur. Pay attention especially when refueling.

Measures: Pay attention to discharge at ordinary times, such as buying a discharge wand, choosing a seat cover, or wearing a cotton fabric, etc.

Reason six: smoking. It is not that when you smoke, you directly point the car, but instead directly put the cigarette in the ashtray after you have smoked it, or you place the lighter on the dashboard and cause an explosion after the explosion.

Measures: Minimize smoking in the car, pay attention to the handling of cigarette lighters and cigarette butts after smoking. It should also be noted that canned items such as air fresheners or insecticides can also cause explosions.

Reason seven: Improper parking. When parking, be sure to pay attention to whether there are flammable substances in the bottom of the car, such as hay, dead branches and so on. The temperature of the three-way catalytic converter rises after the vehicle travels for a long time, reaching 300 to 400 degrees Celsius. If the vehicle has flammable substances, it may cause the vehicle to catch fire.

Measures: Check during parking to confirm that there is no flammable material under the car.

Reason No. 8: Lighters and perfumes are placed on the instrument table. As the weather gets hotter, these flammable and explosive items are likely to become the culprits in the spontaneous combustion of cars.

Measure: Do not put lighters, perfumes, etc. in the car.
