Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged. Always stop tool operation and charge the
battery cartridge when you notice less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room temperature at
10°C-40°C (50°F-104°F). Let a heated battery
cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge once in every six months
if you do not use it for a long period of time.
