Battery
The battery is a new generation Li-ion battery, amazingly powerful and light. For
best life, always charge the battery with the supplied charger which continuously
controls the charge rate according to temperature.
Charge the battery before first use; the performance will improve after a few
recharges.
With regular charging, the battery is good for better than 1,000 cycles.
Performance will be reduced by low temperature; as much as 30% will be lost at
temperatures below 0oc, which will be recovered on warming.
The battery should be part charged monthly, or the warranty will be invalidated.
(Even if it means going out in the cold and wet) Avoid dropping the battery and
protect it from impact. Keep the battery away from heat, direct sunlight and damp.
Protect the charging port with the rubber bung supplied to avoid ingress of
moisture or dirt.
As the battery contains flammable materials it must be taken to a recycling site for
correct disposal. Under no circumstances should the battery be put into a fire.
For charging guidelines see page 6.
