If a vehicle is not used for a long time, it should be started once a week. If idling without driving, it is recommended to idle for ten minutes and then rev the engine for two minutes. When a vehicle is not used for a long time, protective measures should be taken to avoid difficulties in starting the car. For long-term parking, it is advisable to directly disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to reduce power consumption. Protective measures for vehicles not used for a long time: 1. Park the vehicle on a flat surface to avoid tire compression and wear of internal oils, which may cause imbalance and malfunction; 2. If parked for an extended period, remove the vehicle battery to prevent prolonged discharge; 3. If necessary, park the vehicle in a garage to prevent damage to the paint surface.
