About battery life

• The battery life is limited. Battery capacity

drops little by little as you use it more and
more, and as time passes. When the available
battery time is shortened considerably, a
probable cause is that the battery pack has
reached the end of its life. Please buy a new
battery pack.

• The battery life varies depending on how it is

stored and the operating conditions and
environment for each battery pack.
