Service life of the
rechargeable bat-
tery
The intelligent functions of the device (see "Battery protection functions") play a large part
in prolonging the battery service life.
However, the user must observe certain key points in order to guarantee maximum battery
life:
- Recharge the battery after every discharge
Do not wait until the battery is completely discharged before recharging it.
- Protect the device from extreme influences
Optimum environmental conditions for operation and storage:
- Temperature: 15 °C to 25 °C
- Humidity: 50 %
- Surrounding air free from dust and corrosive vapours or gases
- If the device is left idle, charge it on a regular basis.

WARNING! Improper handling of rechargeable batteries can cause injuries or
damage. This device uses a lithium-ion battery pack.
Note the following points:
- Never expose the device to naked flames. Excessive heat can cause the bat-
tery to explode or burst.
- Do not open the device or remove the battery. If the battery becomes dam-
aged due to improper handling, poisonous substances can escape which
may be harmful to health.
- Do not drop the device into water. This can cause a short circuit, even if the
device is switched off. This in turn can cause the battery to become hot, ignite
or burst.
WARNING! Improper handling can cause injuries or damage. Do not open the
device.
The device may only be opened by Fronius service engineers.
If you need a replacement battery, hand the device over to a Fronius Service Part-
ner.
IMPORTANT! The service life of a rechargeable battery depends entirely on how it is han-
dled. Therefore, it is extremely important how and under what conditions the battery is op-
erated and stored.
