Recharge a fully discharged battery as soon as possible (usually within 24
hours). Uncharged batteries will be incapable of accepting a charge if the
period of time between charges is too long. A partially discharged battery
does not need charging immediately. However, prior to storing batteries
ensure that they are fully recharged. When 100% charged, these batteries can
be stored up to six months, at this time perform a topping charge before use.
Always store the battery in a cool, dry location.
WARNING! Do not use batteries other than those supplied by ASD.
Do not use ASD batteries in a manner unauthorized by
ASD. Using improper batteries or improper use of ASD
batteries could result in bodily injury or damage to the
instrument.
