● Do not use a damaged internal rechargeable battery or charger.

● Do not charge the rechargeable battery for longer than the speciﬁed time.

● Charge the battery fully when using the battery for the ﬁrst time or when using the battery after a few months of non-use.

● Charge the battery fully, use it until it is completely discharged, and recharge it again to

ensure a long lifetime. Charging the battery after a short use may shorten the lifetime of the

battery. In this case, repeat charging the battery completely and discharging it completely several times. Then you can use the battery for a longer time.

● Over-charging and over-discharging shortens the life time of the rechargeable battery.

● When the use time of a rechargeable battery is signiﬁcantly shorter than a new one, replace the battery with a new one.

● Since a rechargeable battery is an expendable supply, the use time of a battery decreases over time.

● Take care not to short-circuit the DC converter terminals or the rechargeable battery

(metallic parts) with any conductors such as a necklace, bracelet etc. There is a danger of

electric shock or ﬁre.
