1. Always charge the battery at a temperature
of 0°C – 40°C. A temperature of less than
0°C will result in over charging which is
dangerous. The battery cannot be charged
at a temperature higher than 40°C.
The most suitable temperature for
charging is that of 20°C – 25°C.
2. When one charging is completed, leave the
charger for about 15 minutes before the
next charging of battery.
Do not charge more than two batteries
