Avoid the following storage locations:

Locations that are subject to extreme temperature changes or high humidity.

Locations that are subject to high levels of dust or metal particles.

Locations that are subject to excessive vibration.

Inclined floor surfaces.

If stored at an ambient temperature of 68 – 86 °F (20 – 30 °C), recharge the batteries every 6 months.

If stored at an ambient temperature of 86 – 104 °F (30 – 40 °C), recharge the batteries every 3 months.
