Charging the Battery
1. Push the battery releasing button on the hedge trimmer
to release the battery pack. Pull the battery out of the
equipment (Fig. 4).
2. Check that the mains voltage is the same as that marked
on the rating plate of the battery charger. Then, insert the
charger's plug into the electrical wall outlet. When you plug
in the charger, the red light will illuminate steadily (Fig. 5).
m
CAUTION!
Charger iON100V-RCH is rated for 100 –
120 volt AC only. DO NOT plug the charger into any outlet that
will provide power with a higher voltage. Over voltage charging
will be harmful to both the battery and charger, and may cause
the charger to burn out.
3. Place the battery pack into the charger by sliding the
pack as shown until it clicks into the position. When the
battery is inserted in properly, the green light will slowly
flash to indicate that the battery is charging. The red light
will turn off. You will also hear a fan sound (Fig. 6).
4. When the green light stays on, the battery is fully
charged (Fig. 6).
NOTE: If the green light is off while the red light flashes slowly,
this indicates a temperature abnormality (i.e. that the battery
pack is too hot). If the green light is off while the red light
flashes rapidly, this indicates there's something wrong with the
charger or the battery. Wait for a while and try to reinsert the
battery into the charger. If the situation still persists, contact

5. A fully discharged iON100V-2.5AMP battery pack with an
internal temperature in the normal range will fully charge
in 50 minutes (between 32ºF/0ºC and 113ºF/45ºC). A fully
discharged iON100V-5AMP battery pack with an internal
temperature in the normal range will fully charge in
100 minutes (between 32ºF/0ºC and 113ºF/45ºC). Heavily
cycled battery packs may take longer to
charge completely.
6. When charging is complete, remove the battery from the
charger by pulling the battery backward to unlock it from
the charger (Fig. 7).
