Higher temperatures accelerate the process, while lower temperatures slow it down. It is recommended that the battery
is maintained at a minimum charge level (OCV >12V) in order to prevent permanent damage. The determination of SoC
(State of Charge) by the measurement of OCV correspond to the table below only if the battery was not charged or
discharged at least 24h before. The determination by this method is more accurate if the period of inactivity before the
voltage measurement is longer than 3 days.
