Inspection, cleaning and maintenance

6.1. General information

Warning! Never attempt to open or dismantle the Lithium Power Plus battery! The inside
of the Lithium Power Plus battery does not contain serviceable parts.
1. Disconnect the Lithium Power Plus battery from all loads and charging devices before per-
forming cleaning and maintenance activities (see paragraph 4.8).
2. Remove the external fuse before cleaning and maintenance activities.
3. Place the enclosed protective caps over the terminals before cleaning and maintenance
activities to avoid the risk of making a short circuit.

6.2. Inspection

1. Inspect for loose and/or damaged wiring and contacts, cracks, deformations, leakage or
damage of any other kind. If damage to the Lithium Power Plus battery is found, it must be
replaced. Do not attempt to charge or use a damaged Lithium Power Plus battery. Do not
touch the liquid from a ruptured Lithium Power Plus battery
2. Observe and note the run time that a new, fully-charged Lithium Power Plus battery
provides for powering your product. Use this new Lithium Power Plus battery run time as
a basis to compare run times for older batteries. The run time of the Lithium Power Plus
battery will vary depending on the products' configuration and the application it is used for.
3. Routinely check the Lithium Power Plus battery's charge status. Lithium Iron Phosphate
batteries continue to slowly self-discharge (<3% per month) when not in use or whilst in
storage.
4. Carefully monitor batteries that are approaching the end of their estimated life.
