Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s
performance.
䢇
Use only approved batteries and desktop chargers. These chargers
are designed to maximize battery life. Using other batteries or
chargers voids your warranty and may cause damage.
䢇
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures
that range from 32º F to 113º F (0º C to 45º C).
䢇
Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity
areas, such as the bathroom.
䢇
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
䢇
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
䢇
Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
䢇
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long
period of time.
䢇
It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable
performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs
replacing.
䢇
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of
time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:
Less than one month:
-
4º F to 140º F (-20º C to 60º C)
More than one month:
-
4º F to 113º F (-20º C to 45º C)
