Regarding
the
temperatures
of
the
rechargeable
battery
The
temperatures
for
rechargeable
batteries
are
as
shown
in
the
Table 2
,
and
batteries
that
have
become
hot
should
be
cooled
for
a
while
before
being
recharged.

Regarding
recharging
time
Depending
on
the
combination
of
the
charger
and
batteries,
the
charging
time
will
become
as
shown
in
Table 3.

NOTE
The
recharging
time
may
vary
according
to
the
ambient
temperature
and
power
source
voltage.
<UC18YML2>
Especially,
using
a
DC
12V
in-car
power
source
may
require
longer
recharging
time
at
high
temperatures.
CAUTION
When
the
battery
charger
has
been
continuously
used,
the
battery
charger
will
be
heated,
thus
constituting
the
cause
of
the
failures.
Once
the
charging
has
been
completed,
give
15
minutes
rest
until
the
next
charging.
4. Disconnect the charger’s power cord from the
receptacle or cigarette lighter socket
5. Hold the charger
fi
rmly and pull out the battery.
NOTE
Be
sure
to
pull
out
the
battery
from
the
charger
after
use,
and
then
keep
it.
Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries, etc.
As
the
internal
chemical
substance
of
new
batteries
and
batteries
that
have
not
been
used
for
an
extended
period
is
not
activated,
the
electric
discharge
might
be
low
when
using
them
the
fi
rst
and
second
time.
This
is
a
temporary
phenomenon,
and
normal
time
required
for
recharging
will
be
restored
by
recharging
the
batteries
2
–
3
times.
How to make the batteries perform longer
(1)
Recharge
the
batteries
before
they
become
completely
exhausted.
When
you
feel
that
the
power
of
the
tool
becomes
weaker,
stop
using
the
tool
and
recharge
its
battery.
If
you
continue
to
use
the
tool
and
exhaust
the
electric
current,
the
battery
may
be
damaged
and
its
life
will
become
shorter.
(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
pilot
lamp
of
the
charger
lights
up
green.
In
such
a
case,
fi
rst
let
the
battery
cool,
then
start
charging.
○
When
the
pilot
lamp
fl
ickers
in
red
(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.
