Weekly, or as needed - Clean the device, associated components,
and accessories as needed with a damp, non-saturated cloth or
paper towel. Do not wet the exposed metal part of the battery charge
terminals. Do not use solvents or scouring agents. Example s of
approved solvents are Cidex®and Windex®. Consult Anton/Bauer
Customer Support Group for approved list of cleaning agents. Periodic
cleaning of both the charger terminals and battery terminals will ensure
continued reliable operation. Clean the terminals occasionally with a
pencil eraser or lightly scrape the surface with a blunt instrument to
help reduce the likely hood of buildup causing poor communication or
charging.
Contact Anton/Bauer Customer Support Group with additional inquires
as to maintenance.
Storage
CAUTION! Keep batteries cool or at room
temperatures whenever possible. Sustained elevated
temperatures are the primary reason for premature
failure of Lithium-Ion batteries.
CAUTION! Charge batteries at room temperature. In
warm climates keep chargers in air conditioned rooms
for best performance.
CAUTION! Although Lithium-ion has good self-
discharge characteristics, batteries should be stored
for long term storage in a fully charged condition.
CAUTION! Batteries should always be stored in a
fully charged state and kept cool. It is always a good
idea to submit the battery to a discharge/charge cycle
from time to time during storage.

US Code of Federal Regulations Title 49 Subtitle B.
International Air Transport Associations (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulation
(DGR).
International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) regulations apply to all
Lithium-Ion battery transport.
Since the interpretation and application of regulations may vary with
the aviation company, the transport of the Anton/Bauer battery may be
disallowed even when the conditions described above are satisfied.
Anton/Bauer therefore strongly recommends that you consult with your
transportation company prior to transporting the battery pack.
