How to cool down a hot car: Tips for summer driving
Summer is in full swing, and the heat is relentless. When thermometers show high temperatures, a car's interior can resemble a sauna. Fortunately, there's a way to lower the vehicle's temperature quickly.
A hot car interior is one of the worst things that can happen after a tiring day. When entering a hot car, most drivers instinctively turn on the air conditioning at full blast. This is a mistake, as catching a cold this way is easy.
Before turning on the air conditioning, consider using natural methods to ventilate the interior. The best solution is to open the doors or windows.
There are even ways to ventilate the car remotely! We're talking about the remote window opening and closing function, which is not widely known. This option is beneficial as it allows you to ventilate the car from the office or home.
How to remotely open car windows?
Not all keys have the option for remote window opening, but this feature does exist in many cars.
How can fresh air be let into the car interior? The method is simple: just hold the unlock button on the key. If you want to close the windows, hold the vehicle lock button for a few seconds.
It's a good idea to open the windows briefly before driving. This will ventilate the car's interior and reduce the difference between the outside temperature and the cabin. At the start of the drive, keeping the windows down is also smart to prevent the interior from overheating. However, act prudently to avoid catching a draft.
