To obtain the best life from the battery
1. Never allow the battery to completely discharge before recharging. The battery pack
should be placed on the charger whenever the battery pack is noticeably running down
or the tool no longer performs a task it previously performed.
2. Avoid conducting short charges. Make sure that the battery is fully charged each time by
allowing the charger to complete its full charging cycle.
3. Avoid allowing loose items like screws or nails etc. to be stored with battery packs as
these or similar items can short battery packs and cause a fire or explosion
4. Always unplug the charger when not in use and store in a dry and secure place.
5. Avoid charging or storing your battery in temperatures below 5°C and above 45°C.
6. After use, allow the battery to pack to cool down for approximately 30 minutes before
attempting to recharge.
