6 Before use

6.1 Battery use and care
NOTE
Battery performance drops at low temperatures. Never use the battery until
the cells become fully discharged. Change to the second battery as soon
as a drop in performance is noticed. 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.
