Visibility—under all the weather conditions,
it is very important to see far and near
clearly, and be saw by other drivers. It is
more difficult to do this point in the
atrocious weather. To be seen more clearly,
you should turn on the head light in
daytime.
You should often inspect the windshield
wiper and washer. Keep storing proper and
enough washer fluid in fluid reserve tank of
windshield washer. If the wiper does not
scrape the water cleanly or leave the stripe
on the windshield, replace the blade.
Otherwise, use the frost removal and
air-condition to make window inside
without fog (refer to 38
th
page).
Driving force (adhesive force)—you should
often inspect the abrasion status of tires and
the pressure of tire whether it is suitable, the
two items are very important to prevent the
“drafting phenomenon” (a loss of adhesive
on wet pavement) of vehicle. In winter, four
wheels should be installed snow tires
(antiskid deep strain), to obtain best control
capability.
You should look round the illusive road
status. Dry leaves maybe slip like ice and
snow. “Clean” pavement may have thin ice.
When the temperature out of vehicle is near
to zero degree, the driving condition may be
very dangerous and the pavement may be
covered by water and ice. So the adhesive
force of vehicle may sudden change under
the condition without any threaten.
When downshifting, you should take care
doubling. If the adhesive force is low, the
driving wheel may be locked up a moment,
this may lead to slip.
When overtaking or being overtook, you
should be very careful, because the water
fog which is caused by heavy vehicle
maybe have a influence on your sight, and
air wave impact maybe lead to a loss of
control.
Friendly tips
Don’t drive on the pavement of deep
water. It is easy to cause malfunction or
damage to engine and electronic
equipment.
