Performance
 The battery will give full capacity performance only if it has been fully
charged before use.
 The battery will self-discharge to some extent over time due to
internal electronic consumption. Recharging will restore this lost
capacity.
 It is recommended to charge the battery after each use, and before
an expected prolonged shelf period.
 Performance degradation may be observed in very cold or very hot
environments.
 Performance decreases as the battery ages or if it has a high cycle
count or if it is not stored at the recommended temperature. When
the performance noticeably decreases, the battery should be
renewed.
Storage
The battery should be stored in a dry place at normal temperatures,
ideally below 25°C and not above 60°C (recommended 0°C to 20°C)
The battery is shipped in ultra-low power consumption mode and in this
state can withstand long period of storage. However, after the battery has
been reactivated with the first charge, more attention and care need to be
used:
 It is recommended to charge the battery after each use.
 If the battery is not going to be used for a prolonged period of time, it
is advisable to recharge the battery so as not to store it in a very low
state of charge. Remember that there will always be some internal
power consumption.
 It is advisable to check the state of charge every 6 months and if
possible to exercise the battery regularly.
