2. Recommended Storage Conditions
Storage recommendations for nickel-metal hydride cells parallel those for nickel-cadmium cells:
>Store at the lowest feasible temperatures(0 to 30 celsuis being the generally recommended storage temperatures).
>Store cells/batteries open-circuit to eliminate loaded storage effects(see next page).
>Storage in a clean, dry, protected environment to minimize physical damage to batteries.
>Use good inventory practices(first in, first out)to reduce time cells spend in storage.
