Where is the production date of Varta battery?
2 Answers
The production date of Varta battery is located on the steel stamp between the positive and negative terminals of the battery. The code on the steel stamp indicates the production date, which includes: 1. The first digit represents the year, in Arabic numerals; 2. The second digit represents the month, using English letters, where A stands for January, B for February; 3. The third digit represents the production location, with C standing for Chongqing and Z for Zhejiang; 4. The fourth and fifth digits indicate the specific production date; 5. The sixth and seventh digits represent the production shift. Car batteries are an essential part of automobiles and can be divided into traditional lead-acid batteries and maintenance-free batteries. Since the battery uses lead-calcium alloy as the grid frame, the amount of water decomposition during charging is less, and the evaporation of water is also lower.
I remember checking the production date of a Varta battery is quite simple. There's usually a small label or engraving on the top or side of the battery. The common code format uses letters to represent the month (e.g., A for January, B for February, C for March, etc.) and numbers for the year (e.g., 2023 or 23). To find it, open the engine hood, use your phone's flashlight to illuminate the Varta battery, and don't forget to wear gloves for safety. The location doesn’t vary much by battery model. If the label is worn, try cleaning the surface and checking again. The production date helps estimate the battery's lifespan; Varta batteries typically last 3 to 5 years. Early detection means early replacement, avoiding breakdowns. I recommend car owners check every six months and combine it with maintenance records to save money and hassle.
