NOTE The battery is equipped with a guard
that inhibits recharging if the environmental
temperature is not between 0 and +45 °C.
IMPORTANT The battery can be
charged at any time, even partially,

charge ranges from 32% to 10%.
• a blinking red light means that the charge
is lower than 10% and that the battery
should be recharged as soon as possible.
