How can I prolong my Kia Ceed's battery life?

I have noticed that my Kia Ceed's battery life seems to be shorter than expected. What can I do to prolong its lifespan?

One way to prolong your Kia Ceed's battery life is to avoid short trips. Short trips do not allow your car's alternator enough time to fully charge the battery, which can lead to a shorter lifespan. It is recommended to take longer drives whenever possible.

Regularly checking and maintaining your Kia Ceed's battery is also essential for prolonging its life. Make sure to keep the battery terminals clean and free of corrosion, and to check the water level if it is not a maintenance-free battery.

Another tip is to avoid using electronic accessories when the engine is off. This can drain the battery and shorten its lifespan. Additionally, make sure to turn off all lights and accessories before turning off the engine.
