Stay Charged on The Road with Car Battery Care

2020-09-11

 

Did you know that you can keep your car battery running longer and optimize its lifespan with simple battery care awareness? The best thing is that for the most part, you don’t even have to pop open your car bonnet to do so.

How long your car battery lasts not only depends on the battery age and condition but also on individual driving habits. So, the next time you’re on your daily commute, keep these tips in mind to help you stay charged on the road.

  1. Switch Off
    Always check all your car lights are switched off, car engine is turned off and car doors are closed and locked after parking and exiting your car.
     
  2. Shaded Parking
    Whenever possible, park your car in the shade to avoid hot weather as high temperatures can affect car battery performance and shorten its life.
     
  3. Sufficient Driving
    Drive for a sufficient amount of time and minimize short trips less than 20 minutes to allow your car battery to be fully recharged by the alternator.    
     
  4. Stop Battery Drain
    Avoid using your car lights, audio, air-con and other electrical/electronic accessories when your car engine is turned off to stop draining the battery. 

However, if you do find yourself needing to check your car battery under the bonnet, we are ready to assist you.
