Precaution before using battery
  • Do not leave battery unused for long time, no matter it is in device or inventory. If battery has been used for 6 months already, it should be check for charging function or it should be disposed correctly.
  • The lifespan of Li-ion battery is around 2 to 3 years, it can be circularly chargedfor 300 to 500 times. (One full battery charge period means completely chargedand completely discharged.)
  • When Li-ion battery is not in used, it will continue discharge slowly. Therefore, battery charging status should be checked frequently and take reference of therelated battery charging information on the manuals.
  • Observe and record the information of a new unused and non-fully charged battery. On the basis of operating time of new battery and compare with a batterythat has been used for long time. According to product configuration and application program, the operating time of battery would be different.
  • Check battery charging status at regular intervals.
  • When battery operating time drops below about 80%, charging time will be increased remarkably.
  • If a battery is stored or otherwise unused for an extended period, be sure to follow the storage instructions in this document. If you do not follow the instructions, and the battery has no charge remaining when you check it, consider it to be damaged. Do not attempt to recharge it or to use it. Replaceit with a new battery.
  • Store the battery at temperatures between 5 °C and 20 °C (41 °F and 68 °F).
