the indicator on the battery charger indicates a full charge.

• If the battery is not to be used for an extended period, 

store it in a well ventilated area away from children, 
heat and ignition sources and recharge it every three 
months to maintain charge and avoid excess of 
gassing. DO NOT store the battery inside the
