In winter, you need to check the battery condition more often and periodically charge it with a special device, recalled the vice president of the National Automobile Union Yang Heitzeer.
An empty battery is often the reason that there is not enough starting current and the car cannot start in temperatures below freezing.

If you often drive short distances, the battery does not have time to charge and you drain it even more,” he notes.
If the car is stationary for a long period of time, the security systems and other systems that control vital functions will still operate and the battery will be continuously discharged.
A car that covers several tens of kilometers every day does not need to charge the battery extra.
On average, a car battery lasts five to six years and you can check its performance at any gas station.
