How long can the Roewe i5 battery sit idle before losing power?
1 Answers
Roewe i5 battery will lose power if left idle for more than three months. Generally, if a car is not driven for half a month, the battery still has power, but the voltage has dropped, making it difficult to start. If the vehicle is left idle for more than three months, the battery will be almost completely drained. Long-term inactivity can lead to battery depletion. Owners should start the vehicle and let it run for more than an hour every week or every ten days. Note that the running time should be long enough; otherwise, the recharge may not compensate for the discharge. Car batteries should be replaced every three years or so. There is an inspection hole on the battery, which is green under normal conditions. If it is not green but another color, the battery has reached the end of its life and needs to be replaced promptly to prevent sudden battery failure. Owners should regularly check the vehicle's condition, such as the starter not turning or turning weakly, which may prevent the engine from starting.
