B Charger Off-Season Storage
1.
Do not expose your battery pack or charger to water,
rain or allow them to get wet. This could permanently
damage the charger and the battery pack. Do not use oil
or solvents to clean or lubricate your battery pack as the
plastic casing can become brittle and crack, causing a
serious risk of injury.
2.
Store the battery pack and charger at room temperature
away from moisture. Do not store in damp locations where
corrosion of terminals may occur. As with other battery
pack types, permanent capacity loss can result if the pack
is stored for long periods of time at high temperatures
(over 120ºF/49ºC).

lithium-ion battery packs maintain their charge during
storage longer than other battery pack types. As a
general practice, it is best to unplug the battery charger
and remove the battery pack when they are not in use.
Recharge the battery pack every 6 months to 50%
capacity (2 lights on) during off-season storage to
maintain optimal battery performance.
