OPERATION

CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK

When using the tool continuously, the batteries in the battery 

pack will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool 

down  for  approximately  30  minutes  before  attempting  to 

recharge. When the battery pack becomes discharged and 

is hot, this will cause the green LED to come on instead of 

the red LED. After 30 minutes, reinsert the battery pack in 

the charger. If the green LED continues to remain on, return 

battery pack to your nearest Ryobi Authorized Service Center  

for checking or replacing.

NOTE:

 This situation only occurs when continuous use of 

the  tool  causes  the  batteries  to  become  hot.  It  does  not 

occur under normal circumstances. Refer to 

“CHARGING 

A COOL BATTERY PACK”

 for normal recharging of batter-

ies. If the charger does not charge your battery pack under 

normal  circumstances,  return  both  the  battery  pack  and 

charger  to  your  nearest  Ryobi  Authorized  Service  Center 

for electrical check.

TO INSTALL BATTERY PACK

See Figure 3.

Place the battery pack in the hand vac. Align the raised 
rib on the battery pack with groove in hand vac’s battery 
port. 

Make sure the latches on each side of the battery pack 
snap in place and that the battery pack is secured in the 
hand vac before beginning operation.

CAUTION:

When  placing  battery  pack  in  the  tool,  be  sure  raised 
rib  on  battery  pack  aligns  with  the  bottom  of  the  tool 
and  latches  into  place  properly.  Improper  installa-
tion of the battery pack can cause damage to internal 
components.

TO REMOVE BATTERY PACK

See Figure 3.

Locate the latches on the side of the battery pack and 
depress both sides to release the battery pack from the 
hand vac.
