9. STORAGE
Follow all previously described maintenance operations.
Thoroughly clean the machine and store in a dry place.
Storage in a cold place delays the ageing process of the
Lithium-ion. Storage is suggested at a temperature of
approximately between 20°C and 25°C. Lithium-ion batteries
should be charged frequently (about every 3 months).
However, if not used for a long period, batteries should be
charged between 40% and 60 % (led green - yellow) . Ageing
is much faster at higher temperatures. For example, the high
temperatures inside an automobile can cause rapid
degradation of Li-ion batteries. Storing a Lithium-ion battery at the proper temperature and
charge allows you to maintain its charge capacity. The
following table shows the permanent loss of charge in relation
to storage at predetermined charge levels and temperatures.
A Li-ion battery stored between 40% and 60% charge will
last longer than one at 100%, particularly at high
temperatures.
ATTENTION: any maintenance procedures not described in
this manual must be carried out by an authorised workshop.
