3) You must therefore allow for a minimum gap of 250 mm behind the unit to allow adequate air flow
4) Select a suitable place (temperature is between 0
°
C and 40
°
C) and the relative humidity (%90 max)
5) It is recommended to air-conditioned the room (24
°
C)
6) Temperature is a major factor in determining the battery life and capacity. Battery manufacturers
quote figures for an operating temperature of 20
°
