When the battery’s charge is depleted, charge the battery or replace the battery with a new one. Caution: 1.
1. Considering the battery's self-discharge characteristics, fully charge the battery prior to long time storage, to avoid battery damage due to over-discharge. 2. Recharge the battery after 6 months’ storage, to avoid reducing battery capacity due to over-discharge. 3. Notice the ambient humidity and temperature for the battery storage. Please store it in cool dry area under room temperature, to reduce self-discharge capacity.
