Keep the battery covers clean. A dirty battery cover will increase the heat in the
battery and will reduce the energy capacity and life of the battery.
If the mower will be stored for more than 10 days, ensure that the machine is
connected to the lithium-ion battery charger. If the battery is not connected to the
charger during storage, the battery life may be reduced.
Do not store the machine in a location where the temperature will drop below
-25°C (-13°F) or rise above 45°C (113°F). Because storage temperature will
affect the life of the battery pack, avoid storing the machine in temperatures
outside of this range. Storage for long periods of time at high temperatures will
reduce the life of the battery pack, especially if the pack is stored with a high
charge. Where possible, store the machine in a cool (not below freezing) location.
