It is better to ask about our safety test at a car dealership in question, whether already passed the safety test or not.
3. Safety air bags
The car with the air bag has started production since 1998 and usually there are air pockets in the front of the car. Although the air bag is working to save the passengers (according to the survey, air bag may reduce the risk of accidents by 30% in adults), but can also injure children.

5. Anti-lock brakes
The brake system will generally lock / brakes on a slippery road and can cause car slipped. Today, however, can be equipped with ABS system (Anti-lock Braking System), which can be locked when the car skidded and the car remains in a state controlled.
6. Safety Door and Window Locks

How to Replacing the Radiator Water
If the engine of your car gets hot drastically, it’s time you check the condition of the car radiator water. Therefore, the reduced water in the radiator can be caused by evaporation and leakage.
Evaporation is a common thing to happen. However, if the water radiator decreases rapidly and the temperature increased sharply in a short time, the possibility of a leak in your car radiator. Therefore, care radiator should be noticed.
Radiator is a component that functions as a regulator of engine temperature. In it, there is water to the radiator (water cooling system) that served to cool the machine. To prevent corrosion, water radiator must be replaced periodically. Leaks in the system occur when radiator water inhaled into the combustion chamber or into the lubrication system.
It is better to fill the radiator with pure water “H2O”. The pure water “H2O” can be found in the garage and automotive shop. The characteristics of pure water is a blue lid with the statement “could be used for water radiator”
In emergency conditions, with the conditions of heat engines, you can check and add water to the radiator in the following way:
- Stop your vehicle in a safe place
- Let the machine be turned on
- Open the engine cover
- Take a cloth or rag and lightly mist with water, then turn the radiator cap slowly to the hot air in the radiator drain out.
- Let the water out of the radiator pressure to halt.
- Open the radiator cap
- Add water into the radiator until full
- Hit the gas pedal
- Add the water back into the radiator
- Close the radiator
- The car was ready for use again
It is important to note:
“Do not add water to the radiator when the engine hot and of”
Because most likely you will be exposed to bursts of hot water that comes out of the hole when the water filled radiators. The skin may blister if exposed to splashes of water to the radiator. This happens because the water pressure inside the radiator is greater than air pressure outside of the radiator, until the water will spray out.
