BATTERIES
Battery packs that have not been used for some time should be
recharged before use.
Temperatures in excess of 50°C (122°F) reduce the
performance of the battery pack. Avoid extended exposure to
heat or sunshine (risk of overheating).
The contacts of chargers and battery packs must be kept clean.
For an optimum lifetime, fully charge the battery packs after
use.
To obtain the longest possible battery life, remove the battery
pack from the charger once it is fully charged.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:
● Store the battery pack where the temperature is below
27°C and away from moisture.
● Store the battery packs in a 30% – 50% charged condition.
● Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.
