10.6 Storage
If for any reason the anaesthesia unit is not used, we suggest leaving
it in its original packaging and storing it in a safe and dry place.
If it is believed that the anaesthesia unit will be left unused for at least
6 months, Siare recommends disconnecting the battery or recharging
it every 3/6 months, depending on the storage temperature.
