• Store the battery in dry environment.
• Charge the battery immediately after full discharge.
• Before long time storage, ensure the battery charge level is 60% around,
store the battery in 15°C ~ 25°C (59°F ~ 77°F) ambient temperature. If
the battery level is larger than 60% for more than ten days without activity,
the battery itself will discharge with a small current around 100mA until it
reaches the 60% battery level.
• Battery will actively discharge to 75% after 20 days without charging or
discharging.
• If battery level is low for a long time, it will enter sleep mode. Charge to
wake it up.
• During long time storage, activate the battery every 3 months by a charge
condition and keep the battery charge level at 60% around. This activation
is very important and it can help to keep the battery in good condition.
• After long time storage, fully charge the battery before use.
• Do not leave the battery in a hot or pressurized container, such as trunk of
the vehicle on hot days.
• Dispose of unusable or damaged batteries in a container specially
reserved for this purpose, follow appropriate local guideline and
regulations. For further information you can contact your local solid
waste collecting point or your dealer.
