Storage mode is the mode in which you store your lipo , i have the same charger . Use  that mode when you need to store your lipo for long periods of time . Storage voltage can be anywhere from 11.3 V - 11.5 v .

 if im charging my battery today and im gonna use it after a couple of months i need to put it to storage mode rite?? for good life cycle. my question is that whether i need to put it in storage mode before i use  (after a couple of months) or after using(rest period)

When ever you get home after flying its a good practice to hook your lipo in storage mode , if you are not going to use them for months store them in a cool and a dark place , i store mine in the fridge .
