CHARGING TIPS AND WARNINGS
Keep battery charged, ready for emergencies. Unlike some rechargeable batteries, frequent charging will not harm and in fact,
will improve the performance of the internal battery. Recharge battery as soon as possible after each use to prolong battery life.
Frequent heavy discharges between recharging will reduce battery life. Do not leave the Powerstation totally discharged for an
extended period of time as this can cause battery failure. All lead acid batteries suffer from self-discharge over time, especially
under extreme temperatures.
Store in a cool dry place.
Recharge every 3 months when not in use and more frequently in warmer or colder storage conditions.
Do not continuously charge the power station for more than 30 hours. Use only the charging adaptors provided with this unit.
DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT WHILE CHARGING.
