STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION RECOMMENDATIONS
To improve the lifetime and security of your battery, please
disconnect the ELB 500 battery for storage. To avoid progressive
battery discharge (so called SELF-DISCHARGE*) which can cause
a DEEP DICHARGE MODE**, please do not store fully charged
battery packs for more than 3 to 6 months without use. If you have
EN
several batteries please use them all or alternate among them.
Note: Store only recharged batteries and disconnected from the
power pack.
*SELF-DISCHARGE MODE
Small losses of charge are observed during storage of a charged battery (self-
discharge), which is a natural process.
**DEEP DISCHARGE MODE
If the battery is not recharged over a long period of time (several months or
more), the self-discharge process may progressively cause the battery to enter
a state of DEEP DISCHARGE.
RECOVERY FROM THE DEEP DISCHARGE MODE
Plug the charger into the battery. After approximately 6 min the
battery will wake up and the charging process will restart normally.
