NOTE: If the charge level button does not appear to be
working, insert the charger and charge as needed.
NOTE:
Immediately after using the battery pack, the charge
level button may display a lower charge than it will if checked
a few minutes later. The battery cells “recover” some of their
charge after resting.
Charger Operation
m
WARNING!
Charge only 24V iON+ lithium-ion battery
packs with its compatible 24V iON+
lithium-ion quick charger.
Other types of batteries may cause personal injury and
damage.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not allow water to flow
into the charger's AC/DC plug.
When to Charge the iON+ 24VBAT-LTX
Lithium-Ion Battery
NOTE:
The iON+ 24VBAT-LTX 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 placing it into the charger.
• Use the battery charge indicator lights to determine when to
charge your iON+ 24VBAT-LTX 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. Push the push lock button on the battery to pull the
battery pack out of the equipment (Fig. 1).
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 top right green light will illuminate
and stay green (Fig. 2).
3. Place the battery pack into the charger by sliding the
pack as shown to lock it into position. When you insert
the battery into the charger, the top right green light will
go off, and the top left red light will
illuminate to indicate
that the battery is charging (Fig. 3).
4.
When the charger light turns green, the battery is fully
charged (Fig. 3).
5. A fully discharged pack with an internal temperature in
the normal range will fully charge in 40 mins (between
32ºF/0ºC and 113ºF/45ºC).
6. If th
e light indicators do not come on at all, check that the
battery pack is fully seated into the bay.
