Fast starts are very important requiring a routine preventive maintenance program for the battery in your vehicle. Ensure you have the necessary equipment to work safely around the battery before any battery maintenance exercise. For example, it is advisable that you do not service a battery when engine or accessories are still on and negative terminal cable is disconnected. Hydrogen gas from the battery is highly flammable and explosive so refrain from striking sparks or lighting matches close by it. Charging should be done in an open space with good ventilation. This liquid has sulfuric acid which is poisonous and corrosive thus avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing and never consume it. Make sure that you wear protective safety glasses when working near the battery and keep children away from it. Torn or damaged rubber protectors; corroded or loose connections; cracks in case or cover as well as loose hold down clamps are some of the things to look for when checking external condition of a battery. Take off the battery for cleaning if there is corrosion by loosening cable clamp bolts then disconnecting hold down clamp bolt and nut. The cable clamps, terminals, and top of the battery need to be cleaned using warm water-baking soda solution mixed with some amount of terminal cleaner/battery brush Clean all surfaces thoroughly with plain water. Ascertain that the tray for holding these units intact should still be in good shape while also ensuring that all fastening devices including hold-down clamps are tightened.. If there has been any corrosion, use zinc-based primer to paint any metal parts affected by this condition as needed After discharging batteries due to slow usage rates vehicles require them charged slowly whereas chargers rated at one ampere may be used to avoid straining batteries excessively Rapid boost charges will only work in an emergency situation but can destroy unfit cells A trickle charger usually takes 12-16 hours to charge up a discharged cell.

Inspect the plastic battery box and metal battery tray for corrosion, and clean them if necessary.
