Choose a sunny day, open all five doors of the car, expose it to sunlight for 2-3 hours, and ventilate it to reduce odors inside the car. Regularly clean the cabin and trunk, as well as the glove compartment and ashtray, to reduce odors inside the car. Place a few lemons, apples, or pineapples in the cabin. If cut open, the fruit fragrance will volatilize better, masking the odors inside the car. Car perfumes or air fresheners placed inside the car can make the smell more pleasant, covering up the originally unpleasant odors. Car air purifiers have a relatively good odor removal effect, though compared to activated charcoal, they are more expensive.

How many kilometers can a car still run when the fuel gauge reaches the red line?

Generally, when the fuel gauge needle reaches the red line, the car's fuel tank has about 10% of fuel left, which can allow the car to continue driving for an average of 20-60 kilometers, depending on the specific model. Here are two suggestions regarding refueling: 1. Do not wait until the warning light comes on to refuel: Because the fuel pump is located in the fuel tank and relies on gasoline for cooling and lubrication, insufficient fuel will adversely affect the normal operation of the fuel pump and reduce its service life. 2. It is not recommended to fill the tank completely when refueling: Since gasoline expands when heated and evaporates into gasoline vapor under high temperatures in summer, space is needed to accommodate this. If the tank is filled to the brim without any space, gasoline vapor or even liquid gasoline may enter the carbon canister for storage. When the carbon canister is full, it will escape into the air, which not only wastes fuel but also pollutes the environment.

Is it necessary to install both front and rear dash cams?

It is not necessary to install both front and rear dash cams. The best installation position for a dash cam is near the center rearview mirror. If the dash cam is compact enough, it can also be installed on the back of the rearview mirror. The functions and installation precautions of dash cams are as follows: Functions of dash cams: The main function of a dash cam is to record the entire driving process, including video and sound, providing evidence for traffic accidents. It also records time, speed, and location in the footage, acting as a 'black box.' With the increasing prevalence of 'crash for cash' scams, dash cams have become particularly important. Installation precautions for dash cams: When installing a dash cam, it is important to clean the installation area with a soft cloth. For adhesive-mounted dash cams, ensure the area is dry. Heating the adhesive with a hairdryer can improve adhesion. For suction cup-mounted dash cams, applying a small amount of water to the installation area before attaching it to the glass can help it adhere more firmly.

How to Maintain a Used Car After Purchase?

Maintenance tasks for a used car after purchase are as follows: 1. Replace the three filters: engine oil, engine coolant, brake fluid, engine air filter, cabin air filter, and oil filter. 2. Check tire performance: The importance of tires to safety cannot be overstated. If they have reached their service life or show severe wear and aging, they must be replaced promptly. Check the production date and wear level of the tires; tires older than 5 years are not recommended for continued use. 3. Inspect all belts: If the purchased car is over 5 years old with mileage exceeding 70,000 kilometers, it is essential to thoroughly inspect all belts in the vehicle. 4.
