· Always store in a cool, dry place;
· Do not leave unused for long periods of time;

· It is recommended to fully charge batteries upon purchase, after use and before a long period of storage
Depending on the battery type (lead, nickel-cadmium, lithium-ion), the following recommendations apply:
· Lead batteries should be charged at least once every 4 weeks: continuous charging is strongly recommended, since these chargers and batteries were designed accordingly.
· Nickel-cadmium batteries must be fully charged each time to ensure maximum lifetime, mainly for the first charges.
· For optimum operation, lithium-ion batteries require an ambient temperature of at least 10°C
· When Lithium-ion batteries are fully charged, switch off the charger and remove the battery
· on chain saws, the chain brake must be off;
· on blow-vacs, the bag and the tubes must be fitted in order to start up Check the power available on the socket and the condition of the fuses and the circuit-breaker. Ryobi appliances equipped with the "LiveTool Indicator" can detect whether power is reaching the appliance. Check that the power available is the same as that required to operate the appliance (refer to the owner's operating manual). Check that the electrical connections and the power supply cable are in good condition and that there is no humidity. If you fail to locate a problem on the electrical installation, do not open your appliance yourself: take it to an approved repairer for checking.
