Using the system
For more efficient use of the battery, read the following carefully.
■ Natural discharge: The battery runs low naturally even if it is kept unused.
■ Periodical full (dis)charge: Repeated recharge in midway shortens the running time gradually.
To lengthen the span, charge and discharge the battery to the fullest once or twice. For optimal
use, execute the full charge/discharge every 30 to 60 days. Still better, recharge the battery after
it has run out.
For a safe and efficient use of battery, follow the below directions.
■ Do not short-circuit the battery.
■ Keep the battery away from heat.
■ Keep the battery at room temperature (between 0 ~ 60 ).
■ Do not disassemble the battery pack nor throw it in water or fire.
■ Keep the battery out of reach of children.
The battery capacity may change due to chemical reactions during charge and discharge.
■ The system checks the charge status of LG batteries frequently, and then calculates and indicates
the actual battery duration on the current system setup.
■ The battery is wearable goods and thus the life span may be getting shorter as used. The battery
running time may also become shorter accordingly.
■ When the battery is fully charged the machine stops recharging, and it resumes recharging when
the battery charge rate drops below 95%.
■ The Battery Status lamp may be turned off even when the battery is not fully charged, and it may
blink in orange or green even when the battery is fully charged. This happens because of
measures to maintain the battery life and the time gap between charge state recognition and
charge state update. You don't need to worry about this because it returns to normal in a while.
