The coolant in the new Santana should be replaced every two years or 40,000 kilometers. Methods to drain excess coolant in the new Santana: 1. Use the provided thin tube to siphon out the excess coolant; 2. The drain screw is usually located near the radiator fan's hose—loosening it will allow the excess coolant to drain. The new Santana has a body size of 4437mm in length, 1706mm in width, and 1469mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2603mm. The high-end models of this car are equipped with ESP, cruise control, and leather seats. Some manual transmission models also feature automatic air conditioning, though the control panel differs from that of automatic transmission models. The seat heating buttons are placed in front of the gear shift handle, but the driver's side lacks rear window controls.

My name is Lao Zhang, and I've been driving for over a decade. Currently, I drive a new Santana. As for the antifreeze, it needs to be replaced every two years or 30,000 kilometers—that's what my manual says. I drive a lot, and the engine gets pretty hot. If the antifreeze deteriorates and doesn't dissipate heat well, it can easily lead to engine overheating and damage. I remember last summer, I was on a long drive when the water temperature suddenly spiked. Luckily, I checked in time and found the antifreeze was low and discolored. Replacing it fixed the issue. So don't delay—get it changed at a professional shop. A small expense can save you big trouble. Also, before winter, check the concentration with a tester. If it's too low, the antifreeze won't work well, and pipes could freeze and crack. Overall, regular maintenance makes driving much safer. The new Santana is quite reliable—just follow the steps, and it'll last a long time.

Is it necessary to see the car hood while driving?

It is necessary to see the car hood while driving, as this allows for better adaptability on the road. A proper driving posture should adhere to the following principles: 1. Align the body with the steering column: After entering the driver's seat, maintain an upright upper body and evenly distribute your legs, ensuring the body axis aligns with the steering column. 2. Back and seat backrest: Gradually adjust the seat height or backrest tilt angle to ensure a proper driving posture. 3. Fasten the seat belt: After adjusting the seating position, fasten the seat belt (especially for high-speed driving), ensuring it fits snugly but not too tight. An overly loose seat belt reduces its effectiveness, while an overly tight one may restrict the driver's gear-shifting movements and hinder driving operations.
