When to Charge the iON+ 24V
Lithium-iON Battery
NOTE: The iON+ 24V lithium-ion battery packs do 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 charge indicator lights to determine when to
charge your iON+ 24V 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.
Charging the Battery
1. Press the push lock buttons on the battery to pull the
battery pack out of the equipment (Fig. 1).
2. Depending on your Snow Joe

charger model,
how to recharge your lithium-ion battery will vary. You may
either insert your 24-volt battery into the
24VCHRG-QC Quick Charger (sold separately) or the
24VCHRG-DPC Dual Port Charger (sold separately)
(Figs. 2 – 3).
3. The battery indicator LEDs will illuminate one by one
during the charging process. Unplug the charger
immediately when the 3 LEDs are all illuminated.
4. The 24VCHRG-QC Quick Charger (sold separately) and
the 24VCHRG-DPC Dual Port Charger (sold separately)
are also equipped with additional charging indicating
lights which will indicate the charging status (Figs. 2 – 3).

battery's life. You must recharge the battery pack when
