(3) Storing the battery
Store batteries in a cool, dry area. (A location with a tem-
perature between 50 to 77°F (10 to 25°C) is optimal for
storing.)
If you are not planning on using the battery for a long pe-
riod of time (30 days or more), charge it so that 3 of the
capacity indicator lamps comes on, and then store it.
To store the battery without using it for over 3 months,
check every 3 months to see if 3 capacity indicator lamps
light up.
If 2 or less lamps turn on, charge the battery until 3 lamps
turn on.
Always put on the protective cap when storing the battery.

• If you are unable to charge the battery
Refer to “14. Troubleshooting, Repairs, Warranty”.
• If the vehicle has traveled a long distance or on a long uphill grade, or if it has been left out-
side in the cold for a long time, the battery temperature may not be suitable for charging.
In such a case, the charger may not start charging (remains in standby mode) until the bat-
tery has reached a suitable temperature.
