To prevent battery discharge
Charging the battery
The electricity stored in the battery will discharge gradually even when the vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of certain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the battery may discharge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The battery recharges automatically during driving.)
When recharging or replacing the battery (vehicles with a smart key system)
If you are unsure what mode the engine switch was in before the battery discharged, be especially careful when reconnecting the battery.
When the battery is removed or discharged
