If your battery is quite new then clean the post so no green corrosion shows. ( every autumn )

Recharge it to it's best with an automatic charger.

Fresh spark plugs, or clean ones with the correct gap.

The block heater is the best thing. Plug it 2 hours before you use the Caliber.

Fresh 5w20 motor oil and good strong filter ( metal end caps ).

Mine is able to start in Minus 35° Centigrade (-31°F) :smileup:

It's a good tough car for hard winters ;)
