How to Lengthen Your Car Battery’s Life

While batteries themselves are fairly inexpensive, you’ll still want to make sure you get the most out of your investment. Once you purchase a new battery and have it installed, keep these tips in mind to help you extend the life of your new battery:

• Limit the number of short trips you make. 
• Make sure the battery is always tightly fastened in its compartment. 
• When the engine is off, avoid using the headlights or interior lights. 
• Remove any corrosion that builds up on the outside of the battery. 
• Park in the shade to avoid battery overheating. 
• Check the voltage (should be around 12.7 volts or above) monthly. 
• Don’t let your car sit untouched for long periods of time.
