Batteries are supplied with a charge ≤ 30%. To maximise energy level, it is necessary to fully recharge them
before
use.
Only use the battery charger supplied with the drill.
Charge the battery by following the instructions provided in the battery charger manual, approximately
50-60 minutes are required to charge a fully depleted battery with ASC ULTRA fast charger.
Before inserting the battery, ensure that the Motor switch is in the central OFF position “0”: if not, the yel-
low LED on the indicator will be lit with a subsequent electronic lock of the drill (Ref. to §12) in order to
avoid involuntary start-ups.
To restore function, remove the battery, move the Motor switch to the OFF “0” position and reinsert the
battery.
The battery is equipped with LED indicators that indicate the
remaining battery life at any time by pressing the adjacent
button (C):
4 LEDs illuminated:

2 LEDs illuminated:
50 % capacity
1 LED fl ashing:
minimum charge, the battery is almost depleted
and needs to be charged. The electronics protect the battery
from any damage caused by complete depletion.
Continuous overload causes deactivation due to overheating.
In such a case, allow the battery to cool down; if the battery feels
hot to the touch, it can be cooled down more quickly by inserting it
into the relevant “AIR COOLED” battery charger.
A completely charged battery provides 100% of its energy between -15°C and + 50°C.
Insertion of the battery:
slide it down the guides until in place and locked.
9.1) Using the battery charger
Carefully follow the instructions in the battery charger user manual.
Removal of the battery:
