Operating Guidelines

• First Use: Fully charge the battery before its first use to optimize performance and lifespan.

Maintenance

• Cleaning Contacts: Periodically clean the battery contacts on both the battery and the robot with a dry cloth to ensure good electrical connection.
• Storage: If storing the battery for an extended period, charge it to about 50% capacity and store it in a cool, dry place. Recharge it every 3-6 months to prevent deep discharge.
• Disposal: Dispose of old or damaged batteries responsibly according to local regulations. Do not dispose of in household waste.
