Batteries:
When batteries age or spend time discharged, sulphate crystals can form
on the battery plates which
impede the flow of electricity, this is the main cause
of poor battery performance or even failure.
Batteries will be disconnected on all vehicles once parked at our

charge your battery at
the end of your term, however cannot guarantee the
condition of your battery after storage and discharge.
The only way
to help preserve your battery is to connect it to our constant
