3. Charging
When inserting a battery in the charger, the pilot lamp will
light up continuously in red.
When the battery becomes fully recharged, the pilot lamp
will blink in red (At 1-second intervals). (See Table 1)
(1) Pilot lamp indication
The indications of the pilot lamp will be as shown in
Table 1, according to the condition of the charger or the
rechargeable battery.
Regarding electric discharge in case of new
batteries, etc.
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and
batteries that have not been used for an extended period
is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when
using them the first and second time. This is a temporary
phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging
will be restored by recharging the batteries 2–3 times.
How to make the batteries perform longer.
(1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely
exhausted.
When you feel that the power of the tool becomes
weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If
you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric
current, the battery may be damaged and its life will
become shorter.
(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use.
If such a battery is recharged immediately after use, its
internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the
battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and
recharge it after it has cooled for a while.
