As with your car battery, how you use this battery has a significant impact on its lifespan. With proper use and treatment, a lead-acid battery can last for years. Here are some recommendations for getting the longest life from the internal battery. General Usage Fully charge the battery before using it. Charge the battery completely after each use. Storage For best product longevity, do not store at exceedingly hot (greater than 90°F/32°C) or exceedingly cold (less than 32°F/0°C) temperatures. It is acceptable to leave your sound system plugged in. This will not overcharge the battery. If you leave the battery level low and do not charge it for 6 months, it may permanently lose capacity. Repair If the battery fails to charge, check your fuse near the power cable input. If your fuse is intact and it still will not charge, contact ION Audio at ionaudio.com. Disposal Bring the unit to a recycling center or dispose of in accordance with local ordinances. 3 Outdoor Use and Care Certified to IPX4 standards, Solar Rocker is water-resistant and protected against splashing water in any direction, such as light rain or water spray.
