4 Tips to Prolong the Life of the Car Battery Powering Your Mercedes-Benz Vehicle
You can't make it to your San Francisco destination with a failing car battery under the hood of your Mercedes-Benz vehicle.
Most Mercedes-Benz Genuine Batteries can provide your car or SUV with starting power for five years. Here's how to ensure you reach that benchmark or go beyond.
1. Avoid Frequent Short Trips Around Your Bay Area Community
Try to avoid frequent short trips in your Mercedes-Benz, such as quick pitstops at the Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek and your favorite restaurant down the street. The engine may not run long enough for the alternator to recharge the battery. As a result, your Genuine Mercedes-Benz Battery may struggle to hold a charge with damaged battery cells.
2. Limit Heat Exposure
Walnut Creek, Antioch, and the Bay Area can experience extreme heat throughout the year. Significant heat exposure may weaken the charge in your battery. Don't leave your Mercedes-Benz sitting out in the sun on the hottest days.
3. Turn Off Lights & Extra Features
Your battery provides power for the lights, Mercedes-Benz User Experience, and additional features of your vehicle. Failing to turn off the lights and extra features can diminish a battery's charge. Always check when you exit your Mercedes-Benz, whether you're arriving at the Orinda Theatre or Monica's Riverview in Antioch for your scenic brunch.
4. Clean Your Car Battery & Have It Tested Regularly
It's recommended that Bay Area Mercedes-Benz owners from Antioch and Danville test their car battery often. It's also important to clean the car battery terminals of any stains or corrosion, which can damage the battery.
