Long-Term Storage

The normal long-term decrease in the charging capacity of

lithium-ion batteries can be accelerated by exposure to elevated

temperatures. Storing a fully charged device in a location with a

temperature outside the long-term storage temperature range

can significantly reduce its recharging capacity.

When you do not plan to use the handheld device for several

months, the battery should be removed. Stored data is not lost

when the battery is removed.

When you do not plan to use the collar for several months, the

battery should be charged to about 50%. The device should be

stored in a cool, dry place with temperatures around the typical

household level. After storage, the collar should be fully

recharged before use.
