Batteries are chemical devices. If the batteries are left for long periods
of time outside the CN50, the batteries slowly discharge, eventually to
zero. The battery chemistry resists normal degradation if stored in a
charger, as opposed to leaving the battery in a discharged state. See the
following table for tips to maximize the life of your battery.

battery and the CN50 in a cool location.
If the battery in storage is not used in several
months, you should recharge the battery to keep
it at its performance peak.
