Maintenance Tips

• Use a LiFePO4-Compatible Charger: Avoid using standard lead-acid chargers, as they may overcharge or damage the battery. Ensure your charger is designed for LiFePO4 chemistry.
• Monitor Voltage Levels: A fully charged LiFePO4 battery should read 13.6V – 14.6V. Avoid deep discharges below 10V, as this can shorten the lifespan.
• Temperature Considerations: Avoid charging in freezing conditions unless the battery has built-in heating. High temperatures can also degrade performance, so store and operate within the recommended range.
• Ensure Secure Mounting: Properly secure the battery in place to prevent vibration damage while driving. Use the correct mounting brackets if needed.
• Keep Terminals Clean: Check battery terminals regularly for corrosion or dirt buildup. Clean them with a dry cloth or a mild baking soda solution to maintain a strong electrical connection.
• Avoid Deep Discharges: Keep the battery’s charge level above 20% whenever possible, as frequent full discharges can reduce longevity.
• Monitor the Battery Management System (BMS): The BMS helps protect against overcharging, over-discharging, and overheating—ensure it’s functioning properly for optimal battery health.
• Disconnect When Storing Long-Term: If the car won’t be driven for an extended period, disconnect the battery and store it at 50% charge in a cool, dry place to prevent capacity loss.
• Verify Alternator Compatibility: Ensure your vehicle’s alternator is LiFePO4-compatible. Some older charging systems may need adjustments for lithium battery operation.
• Prevent Short Circuits: Keep tools, jewelry, and other metal objects away from the terminals to avoid accidental short-circuiting, which could damage the battery.
