– Never store the battery in a discharged condition. Recharge it immediately after it has been discharged.
• All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature, the quicker they lose their charge.
If you store your tool for long periods of time without use, recharge the battery every month. This practice will prolong
battery life.
Charging procedure
• Connect the power cord to the charger, and then plug into an outlet before inserting battery pack. All three charging
lights will be on for two seconds and then turn off.
• Insert the battery pack into the charger. The lights will start to flash within 30 seconds.
• During the charging process, the charging lights will indicate the status as follows:
– Three charging lights will flash in sequence during the charging process.
– Fully charged, all three lights will remain on continuously.
• The charging process will last approximately 50 minutes for BPA 10825 and 100 minutes for BPA 10850 battery pack.
NOTE! This charger can only charge Mirka 10.8 V battery packs.
NOTE! Charging times may be longer depending on the surrounding temperature and battery conditions.

Charger diagnostics
The charger will indicate if:
• A battery pack is overheated. All three charging lights will flash. Remove the battery and allow it to cool down for 15–30
minutes and re-insert.
• A malfunction occurs in the battery or the charger. Two charging lights will flash. Remove the battery and allow it to
cool down. Re-insert the battery pack into the charger. If two charging lights still flash, the battery or charger may
