APPLICATIONS

Charging Ryobi nickel-cadmium One+ 18 Volt battery
packs
CAUTION:

LEDs are lit, remove the battery pack from the charger
to avoid damaging the product. DO NOT insert another
battery. Return the charger and battery to your nearest
service center for service or replacement.
LED FUNCTIONS OF CHARGER
See Figure 1.
Orange LED = Charger is evaluating battery pack
Red LED on = Battery pack is charging
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
Use only these Ryobi One+ 18 V battery packs with this
charger: P100 (130255004 or 130224028)
Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to
prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge
them before use.
If the charger does not charge the battery pack under normal
circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger
to your nearest Authorized Service Center for electrical
check.
CHARGING A COOL BATTERY PACK
Connect the charger to the power supply. Make sure the
power supply is normal household voltage,
120 Volts, AC
only, 60 Hz
.
Place the battery pack on a stable surface. Place the
charger over the battery stem.
Press down on the charger to be sure contacts on
the battery pack engage properly with contacts in the
charger.
The charge indicator light (LED) will light up red and glow
when the charger is properly connected to power supply.
This light indicates the charger is operating properly. It
will remain on until battery pack is removed from charging
stand or charger is disconnected from power supply.
If both red and orange LED indicators glow, the battery
pack is deeply or completely discharged, and 10-12 hours
or longer of charging time is required to fully recharge
battery pack.
The battery pack will become slightly warm to the
touch while charging. This is normal and does not
indicate a problem.
Do not place the charger and battery pack in an area of
extreme heat or cold. They will work best at normal room
temperature.
NOTE:
The charger and battery pack should be placed
in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F
but less than 100°F.
When batteries become fully charged, unplug the charger
from the power supply and remove the charger.
