The following are some tips on using new energy vehicles:
1. Battery maintenance and charging: Regularly check the battery level and voltage to ensure that the battery is in normal working condition. Avoid overcharging or overdischarging to extend battery life. The charging time should not be too long. It is recommended to charge during the day to better control the charging time. When the vehicle is not in use for a long time, it is recommended to keep the battery level between 40% and 60% and regularly recharge the battery. In the cold season, start the charging station in advance to charge the vehicle, and use the vehicle charging system to heat up the battery to improve its low-temperature performance.
2. Driving habits and energy conservation: When starting, carrying passengers, or going uphill, you should accelerate steadily to avoid sudden high current discharge caused by stepping on the accelerator, which may damage the battery. Pure electric vehicles are best run in ECO mode during the first 5000 kilometers to maintain stable driving and avoid emergency braking and high-speed driving. During the driving process, try to maintain a constant speed or intermittently slide, avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration, in order to reduce energy consumption. The acceleration, braking, steering and other operations of electric vehicles are similar to those of automatic transmission fuel vehicles, but the noise is lower, and driving will be smoother after adaptation.
3. Daily maintenance and safety: Regularly clean the vehicle to maintain its cleanliness and good working condition. Pay attention to the cleanliness and protection of the controller, contactor, and all wiring terminals to prevent metal debris and water droplets from entering. When driving on rainy days, the wading depth should not exceed 15cm, and the driving speed should not exceed 5km/h to avoid damage to the vehicle caused by accumulated water. If a trailer is needed, please put it in neutral to avoid burning the motor and motor controller. Regularly inspect the insulation condition of various parts of the electrical system of electric vehicles, as well as the status of electrical components such as drive motors and controllers, and cooling systems.
By following the above driving tips, it is possible to effectively extend the battery life of new energy vehicles, improve vehicle performance, and ensure safety and comfort during driving.
