not develop a "memory" when charged after only a partial
discharge. Therefore, it is not necessary to run down the
battery pack before inserting the charger plug.
• Use the battery indicator lights to determine when to charge
your iON+ 24VBAT-LTE lithium-iON battery pack.
• You can "top-off" your battery pack's charge before starting
a big job or after a long day of use.

lock buttons on the battery to pull the battery pack out

Connect the charger plug into the charge socket of the
battery to start charging (Fig. 2).
3. The battery will take approximately 5 hours to charge.
