Storage Mode
If a battery will be shipped or will not be used for long periods of time, it is highly recommended that the battery be placed into storage mode
Depending on the current battery percentage, placing the battery into storage mode will either charge or discharge the battery to a voltage that is most stable for shipping and sitting for long periods of time
Plug the main connector into the charger and hold the storage button for 3 seconds during the 10-second countdown
The charger will beep, fans will spin, and the LCD screen will indicate that storage mode has begun.
Troubleshooting
If an error message appears on the LCD screen, unplug the battery and press the 'Charge" button to reset the interface.
