6 Before use

6.1 Battery use and care
NOTE
Battery performance drops at low temperatures. Use a
battery only when it has been fully charged. This ensures
that maximum battery capacity is available. Change to
a second battery in good time. Recharge the battery
immediately so that it is ready for reuse.
Store the battery in a cool, dry place. Never store the
battery where it is exposed to direct sunlight or sources
of heat, e.g. on heaters / radiators or behind a motor
vehicle windscreen. Batteries that have reached the end
of their life must be disposed of safely and correctly to
avoid environmental pollution.

under "Accessories".
6.2.1 Charging a new battery for the first time
