   It is better to store the battery indoors within 20°C~25°C temperature while it is not being used for a long time. (When used at 25°C, the battery range and performance is at its best. But using it at a temperature below 0°C can decrease its mileage and performance.)

7. Do not store the battery at a too high or too low temperature.
   The humidity of the storage place should be 60±25%RH. As for the working place, the humidity should be 5~85%RH.
