12. Service life of lithium ion batteries
Charge, supply current and store between 0 and 40°C (32 - 104 °F).
Using the battery at temperatures outside the lower and upper limits reduces the battery‘s running time.
Do not connect a continuous load of more than 300 W.
The unit‘s output stops automatically in case of overloading, since it reduces the running time of the battery.
Do not continue to charge the battery after it has charged completely.
Pay attention to the indicated capacity. Do not charge the battery once it has been fully charged or the charging
process has been concluded. Otherwise the service life of the lithium battery may be reduced.
Switch off the unit if it is not being used.
