Storage temperature: 5 to 35°C
(41 to 95°F)
When not using the battery pack, remove it
from the unit and store at 5 to 35°C (41 to
95°F) in a place with no condensation.
Do not keep in a place where the temperature
reaches 45°C (113°F) or higher.

Depending on the usage environment, the
Li-ion battery pack may expand as it nears the
end of its battery life. This is a characteristic of
Li-ion batteries and does not pose a hazard.
•
Li-ion batteries are consumable products. As
you continue to use and recharge the battery
pack, the amount of time until the battery pack
discharges will gradually shorten. When a fully
charged battery pack discharges in less than
half the time as at the time of purchase, the
battery pack is nearing the end of its battery
life. We recommend replacing the battery pack
as soon as possible in such cases.

FOR CORRECT USE OF THE UNIT
Cautions when cleaning the unit
N
Cleaning procedure
L
Turn off the unit and remove the battery pack.
Remove the dirt with a soft cloth.
CAUTION
L
Do not use benzene or thinner products
•
to clean the unit. Doing so may cause
deformation, discoloration, or paint peeling.
When using a chemically treated cloth,
carefully read its instructions and warnings.
Do not spray insecticides or volatile sprays
•
on the unit. Do not let rubber or vinyl objects
contact the unit for a long period. They may
cause deformation, discoloration, or paint
peeling.
Caution concerning the battery pack
N
Periodically clean with a dry cloth the terminals
•
(contacts) of the battery pack. Do not touch the
battery terminals with your bare hands. Doing
so will allow contaminants from your hands to
adhere to the terminals and oxidize, increasing
the contact resistance. If the contact resistance
increases, the usable life of the batteries will
diminish.
When not using the unit for a long
N
period
Remove the battery pack. However, when the
•
battery pack is removed for a long time, the
unit functions may begin to not work properly.
Periodically reinstall the battery pack and check
the unit functions.
If the battery pack is left in the unit, a small
•
amount of power is still used even if the unit
is turned off. If a rechargeable battery pack is
left in the unit for a long period, it may become
completely discharged and lose its ability to
be recharged again. To avoid this, charge the
battery pack for at least five minutes every six
months.
