In fact most of the complaints of premature failure were about Exide batteries. |
Nothing special since it was a maintenance free !
1. Always idled the car for 1 min on the morning start.
2. Never ran ICE when the engine was not running.
3. Periodic service for the car(not for the battery specifically).
4. Kept the terminals free from rust.
5. Always switched off all the lights/ICE before cranking.
And,
bought a new Exide with 5 years warranty.
