ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS
There are no restrictions on how long a battery can remain in the charger. Recommended is
to remove the battery from the battery charger when the battery is full charged or the charger
is disconnected from the supply.
The battery should be charged and used at ambient temperatures between 10 and 40°C
(ideally around 20°C).
After charging, allow 15 minutes for the battery to cool before use.
Ensure that the charger is disconnect ted from the mains supply after use, and is stored
correctly.
DO NOT leave batteries on charge for extended periods and NEVER store batteries on
charge. The
Battery Charger monitors battery temperature and voltage while charging. Remove the
Battery once charging is complete to maximize charge cycles of the battery and not waste
power.
Batteries can become faulty over time, individual cells in the battery can fail and the battery
could short. The charger will not charge faulty batteries. Use another battery, if possible, to
check correct functionality of the charger and purchase a replacement battery if a faulty
battery is indicated.
DO NOT store lithium-ion battery packs in a discharged state over a long period as this can
damage the lithium-ion cells. For long-term storage, store batteries in a high charge state
disconnected from the power tool. Store the battery in a safe place, out of reach of children,
in an ambient temperature between 10 and 40°C.
