● To prevent damage and prolong service life
... do not subject to unnecessary shock.
... charge in an environment where temperatures are
within the tolerances shown in the chart below.
This is a chemical reaction type battery — cooler
temperatures impede chemical reaction, while
warmer temperatures can prevent complete
charging.
... store in a cool, dry place. Extended exposure to
high temperatures will increase natural discharge
and shorten service life.
... fully charge and then fully discharge the battery
every 6 months when storing the battery pack over
a long period time.
... remove from charger or powered unit when not in
use, as some machines use current even when
switched off.
