[QUOTE="3er, post: 142926, member: 54"] My thoughts: -Should I disconnect the battery? How? No. But if your batt is already 4+ years old, be prepared to change your batt when you get back. YMMV. -If I disconnect the battery, how do I lock my car? With the key. -Should I engaged the hand-brake? If your car is level then its optional (there is no difference, you car isnt going anywhere). If your car is on a slope then yes of course its a must. -How about windows? Should I leave a small opening so the air can circulate. No. I dont like the idea of mosquitoes, spiders or cockroach crawling in. -Anything to do with the tyres? Overinflate a little to prevent flat spots. -Alarm ON/OFF? OFF. You dont want your batt flat by the time you come back. But if you live in a bad neighbourhood then better to have it ON. [/QUOTE]
