Timely recharging of the battery will help prolong the 

battery's life. You must recharge the battery pack when 

you notice a drop in the equipment's power.

IMPORTANT! 

Never allow the battery pack to become fully 

discharged as this will cause irreversible damage to the battery. 

Charging a Hot or Cold Battery Pack
