1. For optimum battery performance, avoid low discharge

cycles by charging the battery pack frequently.

2. Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally at 77°F

(25°C) and charged to at least 40%.

3. Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural aging

process. The battery pack must be replaced at the latest when its capacity falls to just 80% of its capacity when new. Weakened cells in an aged battery pack are no longer capable of meeting the high power requirements needed for the proper operation of your metal detector.

4. Do not completely discharge batteries. Exhaustive

discharges will damage the battery cells. The most common cause of a complete discharge is lengthy storage of partially discharged batteries. Stop working as soon as the performance of the battery falls noticeably or the electronic protection system triggers. Place the battery pack in storage only after it has been fully charged.

5. Protect the battery pack and the tool from overloads.

Overloads will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside the battery housing even if this overheating is not apparent externally.

6. Avoid damage and shocks. Immediately replace batteries

that have been dropped from a height of more than 3 feet (1 meter) or those that have been exposed to violent shocks, even if the housing of the battery pack appears to be undamaged. The battery cells inside the battery may have suered serious damage. In such instances, please read the waste disposal information for proper battery disposal.

7. If the battery pack suers from overloading and

overheating, the integrated protective cuto will switch o the equipment for safety reasons. IMPORTANT! Do not press the power supply button any more if the protective cut-o has been activated. This may damage the battery pack. Information about the charger and the charging process

7. Never use or charge the battery if you suspect that it has

been more than 12 months since the last time they were charged. There is a high probability that the battery pack has already suered damage (exhaustive discharge).

8. Charging batteries at a temperature below 41°F (5°C) will

cause chemical damage to the cells and may cause a re.4

9. Do not use batteries that have been exposed to heat

during the charging process, as the battery cells may have suered dangerous damage.

10. Do not use batteries that have suered deformation during

the charging process or those that exhibit other atypical symptoms (gassing, hissing, cracking, etc.).

11. Never fully discharge the battery pack (maximum

recommended depth of discharge is 80%). A complete discharge of the battery pack will lead to premature degradation of the battery cells. Protection from environmental inuences
