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 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).
NOTE:
A fully discharged pack with an internal
temperature in the normal range will fully charge in
55 mins (between 32ºF/0ºC and 113ºF/45ºC).
5. If the light indicators do not come on at all, check that
the battery pack is fully seated into the bay. Remove
the battery pack and reinsert. If the problem persists,
contact an authorized Snow Joe

6. When charging is complete, remove the battery from the
charger by pressing the push lock button and sliding the
battery backward to unlock it from the charger (Fig. 4).
7. Timely recharging of the battery will help prolong the
battery's life. You must recharge the battery pack when
you notice a drop in the equipment's power.
IMPORTANT! Never allow the battery pack to become fully
discharged as this will cause irreversible damage to the
battery.
Charging a Hot or Cold Battery Pack
A red and green flashing indicator light on the charger base
indicates that the battery pack temperature is outside the
charging range. Once the pack is within the acceptable
range, normal charging will take place and the red light will
be continuous. Hot or cold battery packs may take longer to
charge.
