TRANSCRIPT

I remember one time I had gone to a friend’s house for a party, and the next morning when I was leaving my car battery was drained.

This was extremely scary due to the fact that I just had no clue as to what to do.

I mean what does someone do to charge a car battery? It’s not as if I can just plug my car into a wall outlet and charge the battery.

Luckily, my friend knew what to do, and helped me get my car starting.

With that said I would like to inform any young drivers who haven’t experienced a dead car battery what they should do if this ever

happens to them, and what maintenance tips drivers should consider to prevent any damage to their car battery.

The first step in order to jump your car battery is to acquire jumper cables.

These will allow you to connect your vehicles battery to another cars battery which will allow you to gather enough charge needed

to start your car.

With the car battery charged enough to start the owner of the vehicle should take a long drive instead of short multiple trips.

The reason for this is that driving a long distance will allow the battery enough time to charge.

If the driver takes short multiple trips then the battery receives short inconsistent charges which could cause further damage to

the battery.

The next tip for maintaining your car battery is to consider the outside temperature.

The driver of a car should have their battery tested at least once before the summer to make sure that everything is in working

order.

The vehicle should also be parked in a covered garage of cooler location during the summer time to prevent any damage to the car

battery.

Along with considering the temperature that your car battery is exposed to drivers should consider the cleanliness of their car

battery.

With this said it is very important to make sure the battery terminal is clean and free of corrosion.

This can help prevent any unneeded damage to the vital car part.

Another tip to consider when keeping your car battery fully functioning is to consider the professional maintenance for the

battery.

This will help drivers become aware of any issues that they may have not noticed.

This could end up saving drivers a lot of money.

In conclusion, drivers should be better prepared to deal with a dead battery, and also how to properly maintain their car battery.
