In order to prolong the life of your CANON G2000 replacement battery please read the following:

Your CANON G2000 battery is charged during production in order to test it. Your CANON G2000 rechargeable battery will discharge between the end of the production and the moment you receive it. That is why your CANON G2000 battery will have to be charged before you use it. You should charge your new battery for at least 12 hours before using it. This will optimize charging of your CANON G2000 battery and prolong the life of your battery.

Your CANON G2000 rechargeable battery discharges slowly and progressively when not in use. The self discharge rate is about 1% of the battery's capacity per day at room temperature. The higher the temperature, the faster your G2000 battery will discharge. If you intend to leave your CANON G2000 battery for a prolonged period without use then a service charge is recommended from time to time, taking in to account the self discharge rate and time between using your CANON G2000 battery.
