8. Maintenance
Proper maintenance can significantly prolong the life and performance of your battery:
- Keep Contacts Clean: Regularly inspect and clean the battery's charging port and connection interfaces to ensure good electrical contact.
- Allow Cooling: Always allow the battery to cool down before use or charging, especially after heavy use. This helps prevent overheating and extends battery lifespan.
- Optimal Storage: If storing the battery for an extended period, ensure it is partially charged (around 50%) and stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Filter Maintenance: If your package included filters, regularly clean or replace them as recommended by your vacuum cleaner's manufacturer. Clogged filters can strain the vacuum and battery.
