In the winter, a musty smell, mold and mildew can develop in the car. Expert “Behind the wheel” Vyacheslav Zemlyantsev explainedhow to avoid it.

The main thing is not to accumulate moisture in the cabin. It is not only fraught with odors, but also with icing of locks and door seals.

In heavy snowfall, you should knock your shoes out of the snow before putting your feet in the car. It is also better to ask passengers to knock on snowy boots.

Setting the climate system also helps: the air drying function. If you don’t have those, it’s helpful to leave the car in the garage overnight and open the doors for ventilation. And if you park on the street, lower the windows for a while so that the interior cools and ventilates, then close the windows and the car at night.
