Clean the battery terminals with a clean, dry cloth.
Do not keep the battery in the battery charger once it is fully charged.
Remove the battery from the product when not in use as well as during transportation.

Use tape on the contacts when you pack the battery in a package. Pack the battery tightly in a package to prevent damage and accidents during transportation.
Do not keep the battery in an area where static electricity may occur. Do not keep the battery in a metal box.
Put the battery in a dry, frost-free and clean space at the correct temperature.
Storage temperature should be 5–25°C (41–77°F). Do not store the battery in a hot car, in direct sunlight or in an unventilated shed or garage.
Charge the battery between 30% and 50% before you put it in storage for a longer time period.

Regularly clean the charger’s exterior and terminal to prevent dust build-up. Use a dry cloth or a soft brush.
Regularly check that the power cord is not damaged. Immediately disconnect the battery charger if the power cord is damaged.
