Battery charge notice
It is important to consider the environment temperature whenever you are charging the
Lithium-Ion battery pack. The process is most efficient at normal room temperature or slightly
cooler. It is essential that you charge batteries within the stated range of 0°C to 50°C.
Charging batteries outside of the specified range could damage the batteries and shorten their
charging life cycle.
Storage and safety notice
Although charged Lithium-Ion batteries may be left unused for several months, their capacity
may be depleted due to build up of internal resistance. If this happens they will require
recharging prior to use. Lithium-Ion batteries may be stored at temperatures between-20°C to
50°C, however they may be depleted more rapidly at the high end of this range. It is
recommended to store batteries within normal room temperature ranges.
