3. 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 green light will illuminate and
stay green (Fig. 8).
4. 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 bottom red light will
illuminate to indicate that the battery is charging
(Fig. 9).
5. When the bottom light turns green, the battery is fully
charged
(Fig. 9).
NOTE:
An alternately flashing red and green light indicates a
temperature abnormality (i.e. that the battery pack is either
too hot or too cold). If there is only a red blinking light, this
indicates that something is wrong with the battery. Contact

6. A fully discharged pack with an internal temperature
in the normal range will fully charge in 2.5 to 3 hours
(between 32ºF/0ºC and 113ºF/45ºC). Heavily cycled
battery packs may take longer to charge completely.
7. The battery charge indicator lights on the battery pack
will display as the pack is charging to indicate the
battery’s capacity.
8. After charging is complete, the continuous green light will
turn on and the charge level indicator on the battery will
turn off.
9. If the charging light indicator alternately blinks red and
green or the light indicator does not come on at all, check
that the battery pack is fully seated into the bay. Remove
the pack and reinsert. If the problem persists, contact the

10. When charging is complete, remove the battery from the
charger by pulling the push lock button and sliding the
battery backward to unlock it from the charger (Fig. 10).
11. 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.
