  3. 5 Tips to Ensure your Car is looked after During the Lockdown • As the world continues to battle with the Coronavirus pandemic, it’s best and safest for us to stay at home and not venture outdoors. The uncertain and indefinite nature of the lockdown is surely a tough time for all of us, but it’s in our own interest. As you take the necessary precautions for yourself and your family, make sure that your car is well-looked-after as well. • Here are five tips to ensure that your car remains robust and unaffected during the lockdown:

  4. 5 Tips to Ensure your Car is looked after During the Lockdown • Keep it covered: • If you don’t have a covered parking spot, it is important to park your car underneath a shed or veil it with a car cover. This will protect it from bird droppings and harsh sunlight that can damage the paint. If you have a Maruti Suzuki car, then invest in a Paint Protection Kit. It helps in polishing and waxing the car’s surface to restore gloss and protect the paint from UV rays. You can find more such Maruti Suzuki accessories on their website. Also ensure that flowers and leaves don’t accumulate on top of your car top, as this can serve as a breeding ground for bacteria. • Keep the insides of the car thoroughly clean as well. Wipe the dashboard and the seats with a clean, damp cloth. Make sure there are no leftovers of food in the cabin since they are a welcome feast for rodents and other insects.

  5. 5 Tips to Ensure your Car is looked after During the Lockdown • Disengage the handbrake: • It’s common practice to pull the handbrake to halt the car when stationary, but this can cause your handbrake to get jammed or loosened over time. Thus it is important to disengage it once you step out. Instead, leave the car in parking mode. If your car doesn’t have that feature, you can simply put it into gear. To ensure additional safety and peace of mind, you can also make use of a wheel lock, if available, or simply stones in front of your wheels to keep the car in position.

  6. 5 Tips to Ensure your Car is looked after During the Lockdown • Fill the fuel tank: • It is advisable to fill the fuel tank sufficiently so that you don’t run out of fuel in the case of an emergency during the lockdown. Moreover, if the tank is half empty, the air above the fuel can condense and store moisture, which in turn, is likely to cause rusting. • Check the tires: • When left idle for days, tires can lose air pressure. Deflated tyres cannot bear the weight of the car for a long time, thus causing cracks to appear on the sidewalls. So if possible, gauge the tire pressure and keep tires optimally inflated from time to time. Moving your car slightly back and forth is also a good way to relieve the burden on the tires and prevent them from cracking.

  7. 5 Tips to Ensure your Car is looked after During the Lockdown • Disconnect the car’s battery: • Keeping the car idle for a long time may drain its battery. Thus, disconnect the battery when not in use. This will ensure that energy is not discharged while the car is idle and battery life doesn’t reduce. Another way to avoid cold starts is by turning the car on and letting it remain idle for a while; this can be done once in 3-4 days.After the lockdown is over, your car may need a quick check to ensure that oil and other fluids, along with electronic appliances, are well-functioning. If you own a Maruti Suzuki Car, visit Sai Service, an authorized Maruti Suzuki dealer or any of Maruti Suzuki service centers near you.
