Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for
longer than a week, since overcharging may shorten its lifetime.
If left unused a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time Temperature extremes
can affect the ability of your battery to charge.
For good operation times with Ni-Cd/NiMh batteries, discharge the battery from time to time
by leaving the product switched on until it turns itself off (or by using the battery discharge
facility of any approved accessory available for the product).
Do not attempt to discharge the battery by any other means Use the battery only for its
intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery which is damaged.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object
(coin, clip or pen) causes direct connection of the + and - terminals of the battery (metal
strips on the battery) for example when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse.
Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or e connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter
conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the
battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F).
A phone with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully
charged. Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
Do not dispose batteries in a fire! Dispose of batteries according to local regulations (e.g.
recycling).
Do not dispose as household waste.
