How to prolong the life of my Kia Sorento's battery?

I have noticed that my Kia Sorento's battery seems to be draining faster than usual. What can I do to extend its lifespan and avoid having to replace it prematurely?

Firstly, make sure to regularly check and clean the battery terminals for any buildup or corrosion. This can greatly affect the battery's performance. Also, try to avoid using too many electronic devices while the car is not running as this can drain the battery. Additionally, consider investing in a battery tender to keep your battery charged while your car is not in use.

One helpful tip is to always turn off any lights or accessories when exiting the car, even if you think you will only be gone for a few minutes. These small drains can add up and put strain on the battery. Another solution is to take your car for longer drives, as this will give the battery a chance to fully recharge and maintain its health.

A simple and cost-effective solution is to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery when the car is not in use for extended periods of time. This will prevent any slow drains and keep the battery from being completely drained.
