Charge the battery fully before use. This ensures that the battery's full capacity will be available. The
battery lifespan is estimated to 500 recharging cycles and is largely dependent on the conditions of use.
To maximize the lifespan of the batteries and battery charger, follow these recommendations:
•
Do not recharge the battery until it is completely flat, as shown with red LED slow pulse on the
transmitter
•
Always charge the batteries at temperatures between 0° and 45°C (the batteries will not become fully
charged at temperatures exceeding 45°C)
•
Do not leave the battery charger or batteries in a direct sunlight
•
Charge batteries at least once every three months
•
Make the charge of at least 40% of the full charge.
•
Ideal Battery storage temperature should be between 15ºC and 25ºC.
•
Avoid short circuits between the battery contacts; do not carry charged batteries in toolboxes or next
to other metal objects (keys, coins, etc.)
•
Always keep contacts clean
•
Caution! Risk of Explosion if Battery is Replaced by an incorrect type. Non Danfoss Battery use may
void warranty
