Newly purchased electric vehicles should be charged after the battery is depleted. Performing a complete discharge and full charge can make the battery more active and fully utilize its performance. However, this does not mean the battery is completely empty; charging should begin immediately when the remaining power drops below 20%. Precautions for the first charge of a new electric car: For dry-charged batteries within the specified storage period, in case of emergency, they can be used after adding electrolyte of standard specific gravity and letting it stand for 30 minutes. However, they should still be charged according to standard charging procedures afterward. During charging, control the battery temperature to not exceed 37 degrees Celsius. Open the cell covers to ensure proper ventilation. Maintain the effective height of the electrolyte level, which should be 5mm above the plates. Ensure the specific gravity of the electrolyte is normal. After the charger enters the float charging state, maintain it for 1-1.5 hours before stopping the charge.

What is the suitable tire pressure for a new car?

The cold tire pressure of a new car is generally normal between 2.2 and 2.5 bar. The recommended cold tire pressure is usually 2.5 bar, as this results in lower fuel consumption and keeps the tire pressure within the safe range of 3.0 bar during high-speed driving. Different vehicle models have different tire pressure requirements. Abnormal tire pressure can easily lead to wear and affect the tire's service life. Most cases of abnormal tire wear may be caused by the driver's poor control of load or excessive speed during driving. Overloading the tires will accelerate wear and increase the risk of blowouts. Prolonged high-speed driving can cause a sharp increase in tire temperature, increased movement load, elevated tire pressure, and reduced tire strength, which can also easily lead to tire blowouts. Therefore, drivers need to pay attention to tire pressure while driving.
