BATTERY INFORMATION & CHARGING
Plug charger into your standard power outlet.
With no battery pack inserted, the charger's green
indicator light will go ON. This indicates the
charger is receiving power and the charger is ready
for operation.
When you insert the battery pack into the charger.
The charger's green indicator light will begin to
"BLINK". This indicates that the battery is receiving
a fast charge.
When the indicator light stops "BLINKING" (and
becomes a steady green light) fast charging is
complete. The battery pack is fully charged and can
be removed from the charger.
The battery pack may be used even though the
light may still be blinking. The light may require
more time to stop blinking depending on
temperature.
The purpose of the green light is to indicate that
the battery pack is fast-charging. It does not
indicate the exact point of charge. The light will
stop blinking in less time if the battery pack was
not completely charged.
When you begin the charging process of the battery pack, a steady red light could also mean the
battery pack is too hot or too cold.
Fast charging is only possible when the temperature range of the battery pack is between 32F
(0C) and 113F (45C). When needed, the internal fan of the charger will turn on to aid the charging
process and speed.
As soon as the battery pack reaches the correct temperature range, the battery charger will
automatically switch to fast charging.
If the red indicator light is "BLINKING", the battery pack cannot accept a charge.
!
Check to make sure the battery pack is inserted to the charger properly.
!
Clean the contacts of the charger or battery pack (e. g. by inserting and removing the
battery several times) or replace the battery pack as required.
When the battery pack is fully charged, unplug the charger (unless you're charging another
battery pack) and install the battery pack back into the tool.
