Do the following ways to make the car battery more durable The battery is one of the vehicle components whose condition must remain in excellent condition so that it can be used optimally. Because, the battery is the main source when starting the car engine.
Age or age on the car battery is different. Ideally around 1.5 years to two years, depending on usage and also how the car owner does maintenance.
In general, car batteries require maintenance so that their performance remains optimal and lasts longer. This was explained by Service Head Auto2000 Bekasi Sapta Agung Nugraha. According to him, the most important thing is to keep the battery voltage at 12 volts.
“Don’t add to the load on a standard or car battery. This condition can cause the battery to run out quickly,” said Sapta when contacted by Kompas.com recently.
Sapta continued, another way that can be done to maintain battery performance is to always make sure all lights are turned off when the car is stopped or parked for a long period of time.
In addition, if the car is rarely used, you should start the engine every three days for approximately 10-15 minutes. “So that the battery or battery gets charging from the alternator. Otherwise, it will just be empty and quickly run out,” said Sapta.
The thing that is no less important, continued Sapta, is to be diligent in cleaning the battery terminals from dirt and removing the battery cables when the car has not been used for a long period of time.
“Obviously things like this can increase or maintain the life of the car battery itself,” concluded Sapta.
