9.2 Storing the battery and charger
DANGER!
Danger of explosion and
fire!
Persons will be fatally or
severely injured if the re-
chargeable battery ex-
plodes because it was
stored in front of naked
flames or heat sources.
■
Store the rechargeable
battery in cool and dry
conditions, but not in
front of naked flames or
heat sources.
NOTE
When charging, the rechargeable bat-
tery is protected from overcharging due
to automatic detection of the charge
status and thus can remain connected to
the charging unit for some time, but not
permanently.
■
Store the rechargeable battery in a dry, frost-
free place at a storage temperature between
0°C – +35 °C and with a charge state of ap-
prox. 40 – 60 %.
■
Due to a risk of short-circuit, do not store the
battery near metallic or acid-containing ob-
jects.
■
The battery must be recharged after a certain
storage period. Please also comply with the
rechargeable battery operating instructions.
