(2) Regarding the temperatures of the rechargeable
battery
The temperatures for rechargeable batteries are as
shown in
Table 2
, and batteries that have become
hot should be cooled for a while before being
recharged.
Table 2
Recharging ranges of batteries
(3) Regarding recharging time
Depending on the combination of the charger and
batteries, the charging time will become as shown in
Table 3
.
Table 3
Charging time (At 20°C)
NOTE
The charging time may vary according to temperature
and power source voltage.
4. Disconnect the charger’s power cord from the
receptacle
5. Hold the charger firmly and pull out the battery
NOTE

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
䡬
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.
䡬
If the battery is recharged when it is warm due to
battery use or exposure to sunlight, the pilot lamp
map light in green.
The battery will not be recharged. In such a case, let
the battery cool before charging.
