7.2 Caring for the battery
You extend the lifespan of your battery if you do not expose it to hot environments for
longer than necessary. A cool environmental temperature is particularly important for
longer storage.
For longer battery storage periods observe the following charging level rules. Storage for
around six months: Charging level when stored 50%: Storage for a whole year: Charging
level when stored 100%: If the battery is to be stored for several years the battery should
be charged once a year in order to prevent the battery from completely discharging.
