CHARGING INDICATOR
This charger is designed to detect some problems that can arise with battery packs.
Indicator lights indicate problems (see table below).
DEFECTIVE BATTERY PACKS
This charger will detect a defective battery pack. When a defective battery pack is
inserted into the charger, the charger will try to repair it. This process will last about 30
minutes (the light will be green and flash). If the repair is successful, the charger will
automatically begin to charge the battery pack to the highest capacity possible (the light
will be green and flash). If the light becomes solid red, the battery pack is dead.
NOTE: Repaired battery packs are still usable but should not be expected to perform as
much work as new battery packs.
BATTERY TEMPERATURE PROTECTION
This charger has a battery temperature protection feature. When the charger detects
a battery pack that is too hot or cold (the light will be red and flash), it automatically
activates the protection circuit and suspends charging until the battery pack has reached
the correct temperature. The charging process will then automatically begin (the light will
be green and flash). This feature ensures maximum battery life.
IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES:
1. For a new battery or a battery that has been in storage for some time, please
recharge the battery before use. If you want to store the battery for a long time,
please fully charge the battery pack to ensure maximum battery life.
2. Longer life and better performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged
when the air temperature is between 18 to 24
o
C (65 to 75
o
F). Do not charge the
battery pack in air temperatures below 0
o
C (32
o
F), or above 40
o
C (104
o
F). This is
important as it can prevent serious damage to the battery pack.
3. Never freeze your charger or immerse charger in water or any other liquid.
4. When the battery pack fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that were previously
done easily, please recharge your battery, do not continue to use under this
condition. You may charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no
adverse affect on the battery pack.
