Effective use of the battery
If the battery is left nearly fully charged
(4–5 segments shown on the battery
charge indicator) and exposed to high
temperature for an extended period, it
will rapidly deplete. To extend the bat-
tery life, handle as follows:
Choose a cool place with no direct
sunlight when charging the bat-
tery.
Do not store the battery with a
charge less than 20% (below the
last segment of the battery level in-
dicator) for an extended period of
time.
Choose a cool and well-ventilated
place without direct sunlight for
storing the vehicle.
When not used for a long period of
time, charge the battery until the
2–3 segments of the battery
charge indicator are shown and
then store the vehicle in a cool
place (optimum temperature 15
C
– 25
C). Check the battery level
while the vehicle is in storage. If
the battery level drops to the last
segment, recharge the battery until
2–3 segments of the battery
charge indicator are shown.
NOTICE

If the battery is discharged until the
