excessively high or low, the charging time 
will be longer than normal.

becomes extremely short even after properly 
charging the battery, the life of the battery 
may have expired. Buy a new battery. 

∫ Charging conditions
• Charge the battery in a temperature 

between 10

oC to 35 oC. (50 oF to 95 oF). 

(The battery temperature should also be 
the same.)

• The performance of the battery may 

temporarily deteriorate and the operating 
time may become shorter in low 
temperature conditions (e.g. skiing/
snowboarding).
