Nickel metal hydride batteries have a
specific service life. As they are
increasingly used or as time goes by,
their capacity will diminish gradually.
When the length of time during which
the unit can be used has dropped
drastically, the batteries may have
reached the end of their service life.
Obtain fresh batteries.
≥
The length of the service life of
batteries differs depending on their
storage method, operating
conditions and the environment in
which they are used.
∫
When the unit is not going to be
used for a prolonged period
≥
If the batteries are left inside the
unit, a faint current will flow
continuously, even when the unit's
power is off, gradually discharging
the batteries. If they are left like
this, they may overdischarge and
may become unusable even when
recharged.
≥
When storing the batteries for a
prolonged period, it is
recommended that they be
charged once a year and that after
their remaining charge has been
used up, they be removed from the
unit and stored again.
