Place the battery on a clean and dry
surface only.
Charging can take place only if the temper-
ature of the battery is within the permissi-
ble charging temperature range.
On acquiring a new battery we recommend
running it completely flat and then fully
charging it again three times. Once this has
been done it cannot do any harm to charge
your battery when its remaining charge is
40% for instance, since the battery actually
switches itself off automatically. Thereafter
we recommend fully discharging the bat-
tery again once every three months.
