1 Answers
The backup battery of the Mercedes-Benz GLA200 is located on the right side of the engine compartment, next to the brake fluid reservoir. Precautions for using car batteries: Avoid storing the battery in a discharged state. A discharged state refers to when the battery is not recharged promptly after use. In this state, sulfation is likely to occur, where lead sulfate crystals form on the electrode plates, blocking ion channels and leading to insufficient charging and reduced battery capacity. The longer the battery remains idle in a discharged state, the more severe the damage. When the battery is not in use, it should be charged once a month to extend its service life. Introduction to car battery lifespan: The lifespan of a car battery is generally around 2 to 3 years. The battery's lifespan is largely influenced by driving conditions, road conditions, and the driver's habits. During daily use, try to avoid using electrical devices when the engine is not running. If the vehicle is parked for an extended period, the battery should be disconnected. For vehicles frequently used for short trips, it is necessary to periodically drive on highways or use external charging devices to recharge the battery.
