Battery recharge time is approximately 3 1/2 hours, depending on remaining charge when you start and whether or not you
are using your system during recharging.
Optimal charging temperature is between 40º and 95º Fahrenheit (5-35º Celsius). Temperatures above or below this may
decrease the life of the battery and adversely aect the ability of the battery to charge.
The battery pack can be recharged approximately 500 times, after which battery life may be 70% of a new battery.
Battery packs become worn with repeated charge/discharge cycles. If usage time gets very short, replace the battery pack
(see page 59).
