Fitting and everyday care
Short school runs and supermarket trips never give a car battery the chance to refill properly. Keep tools away from both posts at once to avoid sparks. A battery that needs a jump after a weekend parked has lost too much capacity.
How lead-acid batteries work and how to look after them
Maintenance-free flooded batteries have sealed caps. Flooded batteries handle hot engine bays well. Use a standard lead-acid profile on the charger.
Before you order: a quick checklist
- ✓ Technology to match: lead-acid. Moving to a different chemistry may need settings changed in your system.
- ✓ Dimensions to compare: 187 × 127 × 220 mm. Do not forget the base ledge, which the hold-down clamp grips on many vehicles.
- ✓ Terminal layout: positive on the right-hand side. If your original is the mirror image, choose another reference rather than stretching the leads.
