Lucent Technologies’ lead-acid batteries are warranted against defects
in materials and workmanship for a period of five years from the date
of manufacture. To keep the warranty in effect, you must place the
cells on charge within the time specified on the carton (no longer than
6 months between charges). Store cells at 77°F (25°C) or at a lower
temperature, but not near freezing. If this is not possible, you must
contact Lucent Technologies Technical Support for assistance and spe-
cial instructions. For example, if cells are stored at 92°F (33.3°C) stor-
age time will be reduced by 50 percent.
