Battery Use and Maintenance
Nextel-approved Li-Ion chargers provide optimum
performance. Other chargers may not fully charge the
Li-Ion battery or may yield a reduced number of lifetime
charge cycles.
Extreme temperatures degrade battery performance. Do
not store the battery where temperatures exceed 140°F
(60°C) or fall below -4°F (-20°C).
Li-Ion batteries have a self-discharge rate and, without
use, lose about 1% of their charge per day.
