Relative battery charge status and periodic discharge
The relative battery charge status indicates
the battery capacity as a percentage.
The percentage is calculated in comparison
to the remaining capacity during the last
discharge.
The type of indication used for the charge
status takes into account the battery variation
when operating in cycles. The battery's total
capacity decreases over the course of its life.

Relative battery charge status and periodic discharge
NOTE
The last battery discharge value measured
is updated if a complete cycle is initiated (full
charge + full discharge).
It is important to fully discharge the battery on
a regular basis (once a month, for example)
in order to obtain the most accurate relative
value possible for the battery charge status.
The battery must be charged immediately
after the full discharge in order to maintain
storage and ensure correct utilisation.
