Operating Precautions
13
• The battery pack is a consumable. If the battery capacity remains very
low after correct recharging, the useful battery life is at an end.
• When a battery pack that has not been used for a long time is used,
charging may end before the battery pack is fully charged. In such a
case, repeat charging and discharging a number of time before use. (A
battery pack may also be in such a state immediately after purchase.)
• The life of the battery pack (when capacity is 60% or more of initial
capacity) is approximately 500 charge-discharge cycles. (The life dif
-
fers depending on the conditions of use.)
• To prevent battery pack deterioration when the battery will not be
used for 1 month or longer, remove it and store it in a dry location with
an ambient temperature range of between -20 to 30°C. Be sure to dis
-
charge and charge it every two months. Long-term storage when
capacity has decreased will make charging impossible and reduce
performance.
• When a battery pack is used, the instrument turns off automatically
when the capacity drops. Leaving the instrument in this state for a
long time may lead to over discharge so be sure to turn off the power
switch on the instrument.
• The charging efficiency of the battery pack deteriorates at high and
low temperatures.
