It is not normal for a car display screen to get hot. This could indicate an issue with the internal lamp tubes, and it is recommended to visit a repair shop or a 4S dealership for inspection and repair. Below are some relevant details: 1. Screen: The circuit board is located very close to the back of the LCD screen. During operation, the temperature of the circuit board rises, and the heat transfers to the screen, causing it to become very hot. 2. Backlight: Some LCD screens use CCFL tubes as backlight sources. These tubes generate significant heat during operation. Since the entire LCD screen (including the backlight system) is sealed, most of the heat is dissipated through the surface of the screen, making it warm. It is normal for an LCD screen that has been running for a long time to feel slightly warm, and this does not pose any harm to the screen itself, so there is no need to worry.

Can You Stay Overnight in the Car After Turning It Off?

Yes. Most cars on the market today come with heating systems. If the heating doesn't work after turning off the engine, you can still sleep in the car without major issues. However, there are risks to staying overnight in a car: 1. In low temperatures, you may catch a cold; in high temperatures, you may experience oxygen deprivation. 2. It can lead to muscle fatigue. 3. Poor ventilation may cause chest tightness or, in severe cases, suffocation. If you plan to sleep in the car, keep the following in mind: 1. Ensure proper ventilation by slightly opening a window instead of closing it completely. 2. Avoid running the air conditioning for extended periods in a sealed environment, as incomplete fuel combustion in the engine may lead to carbon monoxide poisoning. 3. Park in a safe location when resting in the car, ensuring it doesn't obstruct traffic. Additionally, maintain airflow inside the car and avoid direct sunlight exposure.

Can Tap Water Be Used for Windshield Washers?

Windshield washer fluid cannot be replaced with tap water. Tap water lacks cleaning properties and contains impurities that may clog the washer nozzles. Below are detailed reasons why tap water should not be used as a substitute for windshield washer fluid: 1. Especially in winter, tap water should never be used. Low temperatures can cause tap water to freeze. When liquids freeze, they expand, potentially damaging the washer fluid reservoir and, in severe cases, the rubber hoses. 2. During winter, always use a product with a sufficiently low freezing point. If the washer fluid's freezing point is too high, it may also freeze. 3. After refilling the washer fluid, always securely fasten the reservoir cap to prevent dust or impurities from entering. 4. If the washer nozzles become clogged, it is recommended to replace them with new ones.
