Used batteries
• If a fully recharged battery lasts for
considerably shorter operating times,
the battery is used up and needs to be
replaced. Only use an OEM battery
pack replacement available from our
Customer Service.
• Always take heed of the applicable
safety instructions as well as the envi-
ronmental protection regulations and
information (see “Cleaning and Main
-
tenance”).
Storage
• Remove the battery before storing the
unit for longer periods of time (e.g.
hibernation).
• Store the battery only in a partially
charged state. The state of charge
should be 40 – 60 % over a longer
storage period (two LED lights on the
charge status display (3) illuminate).
• During a longer storage period, check
the state of charge of the battery and
recharge if necessary roughly every
3 months.
• The ideal storage temperature for the
battery is between 0°C and 45° C.
Avoid extreme cold or heat during
storage to ensure the battery output
is not adversely affected.
