OPERATION AND CONTROLS
•AVOID DEEP DISCHARGE
Recharge the batteries after each use. The
•AVOID TEMPERATURE EXTREMES
When using battery power, operate the SR560 at or near room temperature. Operating at lower temperatures will reduce the capacity of the batteries. As well, more time will be required to recharge the batteries to their rated capacity. Higher temperatures accelerate the rate of reactions within the cell, reducing cell life.
•KEEP THE BATTERIES COOL
When not in use, the SR560 should be stored in a cool, dry place with the batteries fully charged. This reduces the self- discharge of the batteries and ensures that the unit will be ready for use when called upon. A SR560 in storage should be "topped off" every three months with an overnight charge to maintain its batteries in peak condition.
