•
When only the lowermost indicator lamp (next to
the "E") blinks, or when none of the indicator lamps
light up, the battery capacity has run out, so the tool
does not operate. In these cases, charge the
battery or replace the empty battery with a fully
charged one.
•
When two or more indicator lamps do not light even
after charging is complete, which means that the
battery has reached the end of its service life.
•
When the upper two and lower two indicator lamps
light alternately, the battery may be malfunctioning.
Contact your local Makita authorized service
center.
NOTE:
•
The indicated capacity may be lower than the
