AMA reminds
drivers to prepare
for cold weather
Cold, wintry weather is just around the
corner for most of Alberta this weekend.
After several days of above-average temperatures,
it is easy to forget some winter
automotive basics. Taking just a few simple
precautions during colder weather can
minimize the chances of a driver needing
assistance or becoming stranded.
“Once the temperature falls below -15
degrees, the simplest thing you can do is
plug your vehicle in to allow the block
heater to warm your engine,” says Randy
Loyk of AMA Automotive Services.
“Without doing this, your engine oil can
become thick, making it difficult or impossible
to start your vehicle.”
Follow these important tips to prevent
vehicle trouble and stay safe during cold
winter weather:
• Plug in your vehicle. Using a timer on
your block heater cord will save energy
while heating your engine for the three
hours needed before starting your vehicle.
Test your block heater to make sure
it works using Plug Alive, an inexpensive
tester available at all AMA locations.
• Keep your gas tank topped up. Tanks
running low are at risk of condensation
and gas-line freezing. Having a full tank
also reduces the risk of running out of
gas in an emergency, which could lead to
you being stranded on the side of the road
without heat.
• Be prepared. An emergency kit stocked
with booster cables, a blanket, candles,
emergency cones and kitty litter or sand
for traction can be a life-saver in an emergency.
Carrying a fully-charged cell phone
can allow you to call for help if stranded.•
Contact AMA Roadside Assistance. If
needing roadside assistance, AMA members
can submit a service request online
at AMARoadsideAssistance.ca, call us at
1-800-CAA-HELP (222-4357) or call *222
from a cell phone.
