6.1 Battery use and care
en
NOTE
Battery performance drops at low temperatures. Use
a battery only when it has been fully charged. This
ensures that maximum battery capacity is available.
Change to the second battery as soon as a drop in
performance is noticed. Recharge the battery imme-
diately so that it is ready for reuse.
Store the battery in a cool, dry place. Never store
the battery where it is exposed to direct sunlight or
sources of heat, e.g. on heaters / radiators or behind a
motor vehicle windscreen. Batteries that have reached
the end of their life must be disposed of safely and
correctly to avoid environmental pollution.
