Caution
• The battery pack isn't fully charged when shipped. It must be charged
before use.
• Charging should be conducted in a temperature range of 0ºC to +40ºC
(+32ºF to +104ºF).
• Don't modify, dismantle, incinerate or immerse the battery pack in the water
as this can be dangerous.
• Never short-circuit the battery pack terminals, as this can cause damage to
the equipment or lead to heating of the battery which may cause burns.
• Unnecessary prolonged charging (overcharging) can deteriorate battery
performance.
• The battery pack should be stored in a dry place where temperature is in
-10ºC to +45ºC (-14ºF to +113ºF) range. Temperatures outside this range
can cause the battery liquid to leak. Exposure to prolonged high humidity
can cause corrosion of metal components.
• Battery-packs are a consuming part. When its operating time becomes
considerably short after a normal charge, please consider that the pack is
exhausted and replace it with a new one.
• The battery pack is recyclable. Check with your local waste officials for
details on recycling options or proper disposal in your area.
