TO CHARGE

Use 1400677 battery charger only with recommended
battery packs.
See list above.
■
Make sure power supply is normal house voltage,
120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only.
■

■
Place battery pack in charger aligning raised rib in
charger with groove in battery pack.
■
Press down on battery pack to be sure contacts on
battery pack engage properly with charger contacts.
■
Red light should turn on. Red light indicates fast charging
mode.
If red light is flashing, this indicates battery pack is
deeply discharged or hot.
If battery pack is hot, red light should become steady
after battery pack has cooled down.
If battery pack is deeply discharged, red light should
become steady after voltage has increased, normally
within 30 minutes.
If after one hour red light is still flashing, this indicates a
defective battery pack and should be replaced.
Green light on indicates battery pack is fully charged or
in slow charging mode to maintain battery pack charge.
Yellow light on and red light flashing indicates defective
battery pack. Return battery pack to your nearest Ryobi
Authorized Service Center for checking or replacing.

When your battery pack becomes fully charged, the red light
will turn OFF and the green light will turn ON.
■
After normal usage, 1 hour of charging time is required to be
fully charged. A minimum charge time of 1-1/2 hours is
required to recharge a completely discharged tool.
■
The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while
charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.
■
DO NOT place charger in an area of extreme heat or
cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.
■

charger from power supply and remove the battery
pack.
