(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after
use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after
use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and
the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and
recharge it after it has cooled for a while.
CAUTION
○
If the battery is charged while it is heated because
it has been left for a long time in a location subject to
direct sunlight or because the battery has just been
used, the charge indicator lamp of the charger lights
for 0.3 seconds, does not light for 0.3 seconds (o
ff
for
0.3 seconds). In such a case,
fi
rst let the battery cool,
then start charging.
○
When the charge indicator lamp
fl
ickers (at 0.2-second
intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in
the charger’s battery connector. If there are no foreign
objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is
malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service
Center.
○
Since the built-in micro computer takes about
3 seconds to con
fi
rm that the battery being charged with
UC18YSL3 is taken out, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds
before reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery
is reinserted within 3 seconds, the battery may not be
properly charged.

(*1) About the mode select function
Each time the mode selector switch is pushed, the
operation mode changes.
When Silent mode is selected, the Silent mode indicator
lamp lights up.
Silent mode reduces maximum motor RPM enabling
e
ffi
cient work with less noise.
If the load increases while the motor is operating in
Silent mode, it automatically changes to Power mode.
Additionally, if the load decreases again, it automatically
returns to Silent mode.
With power mode, the protection function activates to
reduce the number of revolutions whenever the unit is
continuously burdened with a heavy load.
