STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION
•
To improve the lifetime and security of your battery, please
disconnect the battery from the unit for storage, and
recharge the battery regularly every 3 to 6 months.
•
To avoid progressive battery discharge (so-called SELF-
DISCHARGE*) which can cause a DEEP DISCHARGE
MODE**, please do not store fully charged battery packs
for more than 6 months without use. If you have several
batteries please use them all or alternate among them.
•
Please refer to our separate TRAVELLING BY AIR AS A
PASSENGER instructions (73042, orange leaflet) for current
transportation regulations.
*SELF-DISCHARGE MODE. Small losses of charge are observed
during storage of a charged battery (self-discharge), which is a
natural process. These losses are normal while the BMS (Battery
Management System) is active.
**DEEP DISCHARGE MODE. If the battery is not recharged over
a long period of time (several months or more), the self-discharge
process may progressively cause the battery to enter a state of
DEEP DISCHARGE.
