- Please note that when the batteries are charged with a fast-charger they are charged only to approx.
80% of their capacity - better results can be achieved by continuing charging: the charger enters trickle-
charging mode and during the next few hours batteries are charged to their full capacity.
- Do not charge or use the batteries in extreme temperatures. Extreme temperatures reduce the lifetime
of batteries and rechargeable batteries. Avoid placing devices powered by rechargeable batteries in
very hot environments. The nominal working temperature must be absolutely observed.
