Battery Performance Characteristics
The following factors affect Li-ion battery performance:
• Temperature
~ AC input: Charge batteries at a temperature range of 10° to 40°C (50° to 104°F).
~ DC input: Charge batteries at a temperature range of 5° to 50°C (41° to 122°F) (Mobile charger only).
~ Store batteries at the recommended temperature range of 20° to 25°C (68° to 77°F). Lower temperatures within the
recommended range reduce the battery self-discharge rate and increase battery life.
Table 7.3 provides the performance characteristics of the LIFEPAK 15 Li-ion batteries (at 20°C).
CAUTION
POSSIBLE BATTERY DAMAGE The Li-ion battery charger will not charge batteries if
the temperature is below 0°C or above 50°C.
