Car spare tires cannot be used for a long time. Here is some relevant information about car spare tires: 1. Purpose of Spare Tires: Compact spare tires, folding spare tires, and run-flat tires also help save storage space inside the vehicle. The maximum speed when using a spare tire is lower than that of a standard tire, and it is advisable to replace it with a standard tire as soon as possible after reaching the destination. This is usually indicated in multiple languages with prominent labels. 2. Types of Spare Tires: A full-size spare tire has the exact same specifications as the other four tires on the vehicle and can replace any temporarily or permanently unusable tire. A non-full-size spare tire has a slightly smaller diameter and width compared to the other four tires, so it can only be used as a temporary substitute. Run-flat tires, also known as safety tires or commonly referred to as "anti-burst tires," are literally translated in the industry as "tires that can run without air."

What to Do When the Yidong's Air Conditioning Is Not Cooling?

If the Yidong's air conditioning is not cooling, solutions include adding Freon, replacing the air conditioning filter, checking the coolant, and cleaning the condenser. If there is a lack of Freon, you can go to a car repair shop or maintenance shop to have it refilled. If the coolant is insufficient, visit a car repair shop or a 4S store for professional assistance. Below are some solutions for poor air conditioning cooling: 1. Insufficient or low refrigerant levels in the air conditioning system can lead to reduced pressure and less heat removal, resulting in poor cooling. In this case, the refrigerant needs to be refilled. 2. A dirty condenser can also cause poor cooling performance. You can rinse the condenser directly with a water hose or remove it for thorough cleaning to ensure cleanliness. 3. Check the air conditioning filter. If the car hasn't been serviced for a long time, a dirty filter may affect the cooling performance, requiring cleaning or replacement of the air conditioning filter.
