This will lead to internal damage to the battery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, try to avoid direct sunlight to improve your car battery lifespan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We suggest you park your vehicle in a shaded area or indoors more often when your car is not in use. Doing so also helps protect the paint on your vehicle from fading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Avoid_driving_short_distances\"><\/span>Avoid driving short distances<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><meta charset=\"utf-8\">Driving short distances can be a surefire way to shorten your car battery lifespan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The battery cannot fully recharge when you often drive short distances. Your motor\u00a0engine may not reach its optimal operating temperature. The lack of heat can prevent your engine oil from getting the ideal viscosity to lubricate your engine components. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try to make some long journeys to give the car a chance to recharge itself. <meta charset=\"utf-8\">Your car battery should receive plenty of time to&nbsp;be recharged. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ideally, the engine needs at least 30 minutes\u00a0for any meaningful charge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Minimise_use_of_power_while_the_engine_is_off\"><\/span>Minimise use of power while the engine is off<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t use your electronics such as the air-conditioner, lights, and radio while your car is idle. It helps to put less wear and tear on your battery power and preserve its lifespan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can drain your battery if you keep the lights on or the infotainment system running without starting the engine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is because your car alternator is shut down when the engine is switched off. Hence, turning on your car electronic accessories when your engine is off can drain your car battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, ensure that everything is switched off every time you exit your car. Also, do not forget to lock your car when you leave it. This isn\u2019t just for security purposes; your car computer system may still be running if you leave your car open, which could drain your car battery without you knowing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Keep_your_battery_clean\"><\/span>Keep your battery clean<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-attachment-id=\"14459\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/info\/5-tips-to-extend-your-car-battery-life\/attachment\/211208_draft4-01-06\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-06.jpg?fit=1080%2C1080&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1080,1080\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"211208_Draft4-01-06\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-06.jpg?fit=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-06.jpg?fit=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-06.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Keep car battery clean\" class=\"wp-image-14459\" title=\"Keep car battery clean\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-06.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-06.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-06.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-06.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-06.jpg?w=1080&amp;ssl=1 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It is vital to ensure the top of your car battery is constantly clean, dry, and free of dirt and grime. A dirty battery can discharge across the grime on top of the casing, creating a mild short circuit that will eventually flatten the battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your car battery terminals will also corrode over time. <meta charset=\"utf-8\">Corrosion is when the white powder forms around the nodes or clamps of the battery. It can drain the battery and shorten its life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, keeping the top of the battery clean from buildup is a great way to extend your battery lifespan.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What can you do? <meta charset=\"utf-8\">You can clean the clamps with baking soda, water, and a nonmetallic brush. <meta charset=\"utf-8\">You can then use a spray bottle with cold water, rinse the mixture and thoroughly dry them with a clean cloth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Don%E2%80%99t_leave_your_car_unused_for_so_long\"><\/span>Don\u2019t leave your car unused for so long<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-attachment-id=\"14460\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/info\/5-tips-to-extend-your-car-battery-life\/attachment\/211208_draft4-01-07\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-07.jpg?fit=1080%2C1080&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1080,1080\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"211208_Draft4-01-07\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-07.jpg?fit=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-07.jpg?fit=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-07.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Don\u2019t leave your car unused for so long\" class=\"wp-image-14460\" title=\"Don\u2019t leave your car unused for so long\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-07.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-07.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-07.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-07.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/211208_Draft4-01-07.jpg?w=1080&amp;ssl=1 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Your car will perform at its best when it\u2019s used regularly.
