The battery can be deep-discharged by accidentally turning it on or by leaving the battery plugged in. By deep discharge the battery it loses power, can be damaged so much that charging or discharging is no longer possible and the battery can ignite itself during charging or discharging (fire hazard). Never attempt to charge or discharge deep-discharge batteries. The voltage of the battery should never be under 3 volt to avoid a deep discharge.

The fully charged battery has a voltage of 4,2 volt. After usage, the intact battery has to be fully charged after a cooling phase of at least 10 min but not longer than 12 hrs. This is to avoid a deep discharge caused by a self- discharge. When not using or storing the battery it has to be checked at least every three months for voltage (min. 3,9 volt) or damage and if necessary charged or disposed.
