• This is a lithium ion battery pack so there is no need to completely use
or discharge it before recharging.
• It can be charged at any charge state.

pack to a full charge state (based on standard Canon testing criteria).
• Charge it within a temperature range of 5 to 40 °C (41 to 104 °F).

charge state.
• You are advised to charge the battery on the day of use, or one day
before, to ensure a full charge.
