How to Maintain a Car Battery?
1 Answers
Car battery maintenance methods: 1. Turn off all lights before turning off the engine: Manually turn off the car lights and interior reading lights before shutting down the engine. If you need to find something in the car or require lighting, you can use a mobile phone or flashlight for illumination, to avoid forgetting to turn off the reading light and causing battery power loss. 2. Turn off the air conditioning and audio system before turning off the engine: The air conditioning system involves the compressor and blower, and the audio is also a high-power electrical device. If not turned off before shutting down the engine, they will automatically start the next time the car is turned on, placing a heavy burden on the battery and causing damage. 3. Avoid leaving the vehicle parked for long periods: The battery installed in the car will self-discharge over time when left idle, so it's best to drive the car at least once a week, with a trip duration of at least 20 minutes, to facilitate charging the battery while driving. 4. Close all windows before turning off the engine: The operation of car windows and sunroofs relies on battery power, so it's best to close all windows before shutting down the engine.
