120 volts, AC only, 60 Hz .


Attach the battery pack to the charger by aligning the
raised ribs on the battery pack with the grooves in the

 Press down on the battery pack to be sure contacts on
the battery pack engage properly with contacts in the
charger.

Latches should snap into place to ensure charger is
correctly connected.
 Do not place the charger in an area of extreme heat or
cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.

The battery pack may become slightly warm to the touch
while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a
problem.

while the charger is in Maintenance mode.

After completing Maintenance mode, the green LED will
begin fading on/off continuously. This indicates the bat-

will automatically begin charging.
