Storage
For idle periods of more than a month, disconnect the charger
from the power outlet and trimmer after the trimmer is fully
charged. Do not store the trimmer with the charger plugged in.
Storing the trimmer in a warm area will decrease the battery life. If
you must store the trimmer in a warm area, charge the battery for
24 hours every 2 to 3 months during storage.
