BATTERY INFORMATION
Caution
• Risk of explosion, generation of heat or leak of chemicals inside if the battery is replaced by an
incorrect type or reverse polarity. Use always the recommended types of batteries in this manual only.
• The battery pack isn't fully charged when shipped. It must be charged before use.
• Charging should be conducted in a temperature range of +5ºC to +40ºC (+41ºF to +104ºF).
• Don't modify, dismantle, incinerate or immerse the battery pack in the water as this can be dangerous.
• Never short-circuit the battery pack terminals, as this can cause damage to the equipment or lead to
heating of the battery which may cause burns.
• Unnecessary prolonged charging (overcharging) can deteriorate battery performance.
• The battery pack should be stored in a dry place where temperature is in -10ºC to +45ºC (-14ºF to
+113ºF) range. Temperatures outside this range can cause the battery liquid to leak. Exposure to
prolonged high humidity can cause corrosion of metal components.
• Battery-packs are a consuming part. When its operating time becomes considerably short after a
normal charge, please consider that the pack is exhausted and replace it with a new one.
• The battery pack is recyclable. Check with your local waste officials for details on recycling options or
proper disposal in your area.
• Use specified genuine chargers only to charge battery packs. Use of other chargers may cause
damage to products, you and your property.
• Never carry battery packs together with conductive articles such as metals in a same bag to prevent
from short-circuiting. Put the packs only in nylon bags to carry them safely.
• Even if you do not use the battery pack for a long time, charge it at least once every three months to
prevent deterioration.
