NOTE: The battery pack comes partly charged. Charge the 

battery pack prior to first use, ideally at least 60 minutes. 

• 

Always pull out the plug of the charger from the mains before 

removing or connecting the battery pack to the charger.

• 

Never charge the battery pack when the ambient temperature 

is below 0°C or above 45°C.

reducing the lifespan of the battery pack and charger.

• 

Rest the charger for at least 15 minutes between continuously 

charging sessions.

• 

If no battery pack is inserted into the charger and the charger 

is connected to mains, the charging status LED shows red.

NOTE: Always fully charge the two batteries at same time.
