Keep the battery pack betwee n 0°C and +30°C. The lower the temperature at which
the batteries are stored, the low er the rate of self-discharge.
If you will be storing batteries for a longer period (longer than two months),
the battery charge level should be approx. 30 %. To prevent exhaustive
discharge which would permanently damage the battery, check the level
of charge of the battery at regu lar intervals.
To be able to make use of the optimal charging capacity of the batteries, the battery
should be completely discharged and then fully recharged.
If you do no t use the batteries for long periods, remove them from the
notebook. Never store the batteries in the device.
