NOTE: To ensure maximum performance and life of Li-Ion batteries,
charge the battery pack fully before first use.

Charging Process

Refer the table below for the state of charge of the battery pack.
Charge indicators:
charging
fully charged
hot/cold pack delay*
*The red light will continue to blink, but a yellow indicator
light will be illuminated during this operation. Once the
battery has reached an appropriate temperature, the
yellow light will turn off and the charger will resume the
charging procedure.
This charger will not charge a faulty battery pack. The charger will
indicate faulty battery by refusing to light.
NOTE: This could also mean a problem with a charger.
If the charger indicates a problem, take the charger and battery pack to
be tested at an authorised service centre.
HOT/COLD PACK DELAY
When the charger detects a battery that is too hot or too cold, it
automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay, suspending charging until
the battery has reached an appropriate temperature. The charger then
automatically switches to the pack charging mode. This feature ensures
maximum battery life.
A cold battery pack will charge at about half the rate of a warm battery
pack. The battery pack will charge at that slower rate throughout the
entire charging cycle and will not return to maximum charge rate even if
the battery warms.
