left unused, a fully charged battery will
lose its charge over time.
Always try to keep the battery between
15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Extreme
temperatures reduce the capacity and
lifetime of the battery. A device with a
hot or cold battery may not work
temporarily. Battery performance is
particularly limited in temperatures well
below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as
they may explode. Batteries may also
explode if damaged.
If a battery is being used for the first time
or if the battery has not been used for a
prolonged period, it may be necessary to
connect the charger, then disconnect and
reconnect it to begin charging the
battery. If the battery is completely
discharged, it may take several minutes
before the charging indicator light is
displayed.
Never use any charger that is damaged.
