During normal use, the internal cells of the
battery generate heat in addition to warm or
hot working conditions This could cause the
battery to be above the charging temperature
when plugged in for charging To start charging
sooner, place the battery and charger in a cool
location with air flow around the battery
Batteries stored in cold locations may need to
be warmed to begin charging For a battery
that is below charging temperature, warm in a
heated space but do not place directly in front of
a heat source
