How to Maintain New Energy Vehicles?
1 Answers
New energy vehicle maintenance methods are as follows: 1. Master the correct charging time. Whether it's a new car or a used new energy vehicle, it's essential to understand the charging time, especially after purchasing a new car. Necessary recharging is required, and during use, the correct charging time should be properly managed. 2. Protect the charger. When charging a new energy vehicle, carefully read the charger's user manual. During charging, ensure the charger is well-ventilated; otherwise, it may affect the charger's lifespan and potentially damage the battery. 3. Maintain sufficient power. After daily use of a new energy vehicle, necessary charging is required. If driving less than 20 kilometers per day, it's best to recharge every two days. 4. Cleaning the electric vehicle. During cleaning, be careful to prevent water from entering the charging socket inside the vehicle and ensure waterproofing measures are taken. 5. Keep the battery fully charged. In daily use of new energy vehicles, maintain the battery in a fully charged state and control the speed. The driving range should be about 1/3 to 2/3 of the maximum range. If driving around 10 to 20 kilometers per day, it's best to recharge every two days. For daily driving exceeding 50 kilometers, recharge on the same day to keep the battery in a 'fully fed state.' 6. Avoid overheating plugs during charging. Loose power plugs or charger output plugs, as well as oxidized contact surfaces, can cause plug overheating. Prolonged overheating may lead to short circuits or poor contact, damaging the charger and battery, resulting in unnecessary losses. If such situations occur, promptly remove oxides or replace connectors. 7. Avoid storing the vehicle with a depleted battery. A depleted state refers to not recharging the battery promptly after use. Storing the battery in a depleted state can easily lead to sulfation, where lead sulfate crystals adhere to the plates, blocking ion channels, causing insufficient charging and reduced battery capacity.
