Battery Storage
Unlike NiCad (Nickel Cadmium) batteries or NiMH (Nickel-metal Hydride)
batteries, lithium-ion batteries should be charged early and often. Never use
battery maintenance software to maintain your battery as this can reduce the life
of your battery. Li-ion batteries should be kept cool. They should not be
subjected to freezing temperatures. Aging will occur much faster at high
temperatures (such as a hot car) and will reduce the life of your battery.
Purchase a Li-Ion battery pack only when you need a replacement, ensuring you
receive a fresh battery pack.
•
Stop using the battery if it exhibits abnormal heat, odor, color, deformation or
is in an abnormal condition.
•
Keep away from fire immediately when leakage or foul odor is detected.
•
If liquid leaks onto your skin or clothes, wash well with fresh water
immediately.
•
If liquid leaking from the battery gets into your eyes, do not rub your eyes.
Wash them well with clean water and consult a doctor immediately.
•
Before using the battery, be sure to read the user's manual and cautions on
