Protecting Your Car from the Cold: Simple Steps

To prevent a dead battery, follow these easy but effective habits:

• Park under cover: If possible, park in a garage or under a carport. If you don’t have one, park next to a wall or hedge to reduce exposure to icy winds.
• Turn off all accessories before shutting off the engine: Radio, heater, and wipers all draw power when you start the car. Turning them off before stopping helps preserve your battery.
• Use a winter cover: A simple cover can reduce the effect of cold temperatures on your engine and battery.
• Check your battery’s condition: If your battery is old, replace it before winter to avoid unexpected failures.
