The Battery and Charger
Read and follow the warnings and cautions on pages xii–xiii and 210–211 of this manual. Do
not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 40°C (104°F).
Charge the battery indoors at ambient temperatures between 5–35°C (41–95°F); for best
results, charge the battery at temperatures above 20°C (68°F). Battery capacity may
temporarily drop if the battery is charged at low temperatures or used at a temperature
below the temperature at which it was charged.
The battery may be hot immediately after use. Wait for the battery to cool before recharging.
Use the charger with compatible batteries only. Unplug when not in use.
