You can get the most out of your battery by following these tips from AAA:

• Remember to wear eye protection and gloves while working on your battery, and never smoke near a battery or allow it to be near sparks or an open flame.
• Keep your battery clean. Periodically pop the hood and look for corrosion on the battery terminals. If you see any, clean it off with a small, stiff brush and a solution of baking soda and water. After removing the corrosion, rinse the battery with water.
• Check to make sure the terminal connections aren’t loose. If they are, tighten with a wrench.
• As your battery begins to age, have it tested occasionally by an approved auto repair shop near you. Testing equipment today can often give you a good sense of how much life a battery has left. That way you can replace it when necessary and avoid being stranded.

The AAA Premium Battery undergoes periodic quality testing at independent certified labs and by AAA’s in-house team of experienced engineers. These tests verify that the AAA Premium Battery meets or exceeds label specifications for power and capacity. Additional testing is also performed for vibration resistance, proper venting, zero leakage, durability and length of battery life. 

To buy an AAA Premium Battery, visit your local NAPA store, NAPA AutoCare Center, AAA approved automotive repair center or online at www.napaonline.com.
