State of charge indicator
This appliance include a state of charge indicator (3) which
consists of three green and one red LED lights that indicate
the level of charge remaining in the battery. This feature is

The state of charge indicator is only an indication of the
charge left on the battery. It does not indicate tool functionality
and is subject to variation based on product components,
