11.12.1.2. Avoid battery discharge

The vehicle battery will slowly discharge during prolonged periods of inactivity. There are a number of ways to prevent the battery becoming discharged to such a low level that the vehicle cannot be started:

  • Top up the battery charge using a trickle/smart charger. Do not use rapid charge as this can cause damage to the battery. Follow the instructions provided with the battery charger.

  • It is recommended that the vehicle is driven for at least 15 minutes every 2 weeks.

  • If driving the vehicle is not possible, start the engine and run the engine at idle speed for 25–30 minutes every 4 weeks.
