Therefore, always charge the battery at a
temperature of 5 – 40°C for UC12Y and 0 – 40°C for
UC12YA, UC14YF and UC14YF2. A lower
temperature than these specified ranges will result
in overcharging which will shorten the battery life.
The battery cannot be charged at a temperature
higher than 40°C. The most suitable temperature for
charging is that of 20 – 25°C.
