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  bat-
tery pack cool down for approximately 30 minutes before 
attempting to recharge.

NOTE:

 This situation only occurs when continuous use of 

the  drill  causes  the  batteries  to  become  hot.  It  does  not 
occur under normal circumstances. Refer to 

“CHARGING 

THE BATTERY PACK”

 for normal recharging of batteries. 

If the charging assembly does not charge the battery pack 
under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack 
and  charging  assembly  to  your  nearest  Ryobi  Authorized 
Service Center for electrical check.
