Do you buy ready-to-eat food items which just have to be heated in the microwave at home? Keeping the health and nutrition factors aside, aren’t they a perfect solution in situations like a busy schedule, travelling, etc.? Undoubtedly, they are!

Now, compare this scenario with batteries. You may think how? Well, just as we can’t take fuel and cooking appliances everywhere with us, we also can’t take electrical wiring and systems wherever we go. And batteries serve as a perfect replacement for electricity in such times.

From portable radio to huge truck, we would have been devoid of various facilities, if not for the batteries. And so, it is essential to take good care of them for ensuring comfort at all times. As it would be difficult to cover batteries of all kinds and uses in this post, we have focused on a car battery, which is a significant part of the auto electrical Narre Warren system of all types of cars. 

Without a battery, you cannot even start a car, let alone drive it. Therefore, ‘flat battery’ and ‘dead battery’, are the two most common reasons for car’s break-down. So, it wouldn’t hurt to follow some steps to maintain it in the best possible condition and avoid the situation of getting stranded on the road. For comprehensive guidance and battery inspection, you can visit the recognized auto electrical repair centre in Narre Warren, Cranbourne & Berwick. 


 Basic tips for car battery maintenance 

1) Use indicator or a voltmeter to check the battery’s state of charge.
2) Check the terminals, screws, cables, and clamps for any signs of damage, rust, or loose connections.
3) See that the battery top is clean and does not have even a small amount of dirt or grime.
4) Remember to check the battery case for damages.
5) You can use the wire brush for dusting off corrosion.

Such inspection must be carried out every month, not just to extend the longevity of the battery, but also to see the troubles that might arise in future. An auto electrical expert in Berwick can also help you with this. 

But, what about the times, when you don’t intend to use your vehicle for a long period? Don’t worry and read below: 

Protecting battery of idle car

1) Usually, the car is parked in the garage, but if it is not possible, you must park your car in the closed or shaded space which is cool and dry. 
2) Never let rain or sunlight fall on your vehicle. 
3) Try to put a weatherproof cover of sound quality over your car.

Now, before using your car again, get it checked at the auto electrical workshop or auto electrical Cranbourne, Narre Warren, Berwick or other regions of Melbourne to ensure complete safety. Well, with a few precautions, you can enjoy the safe and luxurious ride in your loved car.
