Storing a user-replaceable battery (select models only)
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to a battery, do not expose it to high temperatures for
extended periods of time.

user-replaceable battery and store it separately.
To prolong the charge of a stored battery, place it in a cool, dry place.
NOTE: A stored battery should be checked every 6 months. If the capacity is less than 50 percent,
recharge the battery before returning it to storage.
Calibrate a battery before using it if it has been stored for one month or more.

WARNING! To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush, or puncture; do not short
external contacts; do not dispose of in fire or water.

located in the printed Getting Started guide.
