4.7 Batteries
4.7.1 Operating Principles
First-time Use/Charging
Batteries
• The battery must be charged before using it for the first time because it is delivered with an energy
content as low as possible.
• The permissible temperature range for charging is from 0 °C to +40 °C/+32 °F to +104 °F. For
optimal charging, we recommend charging the batteries at a low ambient temperature of
+10 °C to +20 °C/+50 °F to +68 °F if possible.
• It is normal for the battery to become warm during charging. Using the chargers recommended by
GeoMax, it is not possible to charge the battery once the temperature is too high.
• For new batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time (> three months), it is effectual
to make only one charge/discharge cycle.
• For Li-Ion batteries, a single discharging and charging cycle is sufficient. We recommend carrying out
the process when the battery capacity indicated on the charger or on a GeoMax product deviates signif-
icantly from the actual battery capacity available.
Operation / Discharging • The batteries can be operated from −20 °C to +55 °C/−4 °F to +131 °F.
• Low operating temperatures reduce the capacity that can be drawn; high operating temperatures
reduce the service life of the battery.
