BATTERY SERVICE

PEUGEOT car battery services

The battery stores the electrical energy that's necessary for the operation of your car. If it is in poor condition, it will be impossible to start the car. Have your battery checked before the summer, and every winter – these are the times when they are under the most strain. Handling the battery can be dangerous. Entrust the maintenance of your battery to a professional and consider recycling it at places that respect the environment.

PEUGEOT IS HERE TO HELP

• Avoid unnecessarily turning on things that consume electricity when the engine isn't turning over

• Make sure the surface of the battery is always clean and dry. With regular use, and if you follow the maintenance guidelines, your battery could last up to four or five years. 

• A regular check of the entire charging circuit by your PEUGEOT expert will help to avoid any malfunctions. At the beginning of winter especially, have your PEUGEOT specialist check the battery with a tester. You can also choose to replace the battery as a preventive measure and avoid the inconvenience of a breakdown.

WHY DOES THE BATTERY WEAR OUT?

The battery experiences natural degradation as it gets older, and depending on its level of usage. In addition, a high discharge rate, faults in the electrical circuit or extreme temperatures can also cause premature deterioration.
DISCHARGED BATTERY
Using things that consume electricity while the engine is off (headlights, radio, air conditioning, etc.) will lead to deep discharge.
FAULTY ALTERNATOR
An alternator that doesn't produce enough energy won't charge the battery properly. Conversely, an alternator that produces too much energy will over-charge the battery and wear it out prematurely. Lastly, bad connections can lead to leakage current, which will accelerate the discharge of the battery.
EXTREME TEMPERATURES
Extreme temperatures will damage the battery's fuel cells, reducing the conductivity of the electrolyte (mixture of water and acid). The battery is then impaired and will deteriorate.
