7. STORAGE AND SHIPPING
The following tips will help ensure that your batteries emerge from storage in good condition:
î Prior to long-term storage of the battery, fully charge the battery. Storing a discharged battery can result
in permanent damage or decreased run time.
î Store in a cool and dry location, protected from the elements.
î Place the battery in storage mode to eliminate potential parasitic loads that may discharge the battery.
Perform the following steps to turn the battery off and place it in storage mode:
î Press and hold the status button for the entire sequence below.
î All LEDs will turn on, then successively turn off, starting with the green LED.
î Once all LEDs are off, release the status button after 2 more seconds.
î When batteries are taken out of storage they should be given an initial charge prior to use as
outlined in Section 6.
8. MAXIMIZING THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR BATTERY
î Follow all the procedures in this User’s Guide for proper installation, maintenance and storage.

9. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOUR TROJAN LITHIUM-ION BATTERY
î Your Trojan
®
GC2 48V Lithium-Ion battery will deliver rated capacity when it is new. No “break-in”
period is required.
î When operating batteries at low temperatures, they will deliver less than the rated capacity.
î When operating batteries at high temperatures, battery life will be reduced.
î The life of a battery is difficult to predict and will vary by application, frequency of usage and load
characteristics.
IF YOU SHIP THIS BATTERY, THERE ARE SEVERAL STATE, FEDERAL AND INTERNATIONAL LAWS, RULES, REGULATIONS
AND REQUIREMENTS REGARDING LITHIUM BATTERIES THAT YOU MUST COMPLY WITH. YOU MUST UTILIZE A QUALIFIED
