IMPORTANT:
•
CHARGE IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASE

KEEP FULLY CHARGED
Charge the Instant Power™ internal battery immediately after purchase, after every
use and every 30 days.
All batteries are affected by temperature. The ideal storage temperature is at 70 degrees
Fahrenheit. The internal battery will gradually self-discharge (lose power) over time,
especially in warm environments. Leaving the battery in a discharged state may result
in permanent battery damage. To ensure satisfactory performance and avoid permanent
damage, charge the internal battery every month.
