BATTERY TEMPERATURE PROTECTION
This charger has a battery temperature protection
feature. When the charger detects a battery pack
that is too hot or cold (the light will be red and
flash), it automatically activates the protection
circuit, and suspends charging until the battery pack
has reached the correct temperature. The charging
process will then automatically begin (the light will
be green and flash). This feature ensures maximum
battery life.
LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE CHARGER
If a fully charged battery pack is left in the charger,
the Light will remain green. The battery pack will
remain charging with a maintenance trickle current.
DEFECTIVE BATTERY PACKS
This charger will detect a defective battery pack.
When a defective battery pack is inserted into the
charger, the charger will try to repair it. This process
6
will last about 30mins (the light will be green and
flash). If the repair is successful, the charger will
automatically begin to charge the battery pack to
the highest capacity possible (the light will be green
and flash). If the light becomes solid red, the battery
pack is dead.
NOTE: Repaired battery packs are still usable but
should not be expected to perform as much work as
new battery packs.

CHArGING TIMEs

The charging time can be affected by many reasons
which are not defects in your product.
a) If the battery pack is only partly discharged it
may be re-charged in less than rated charging
time.
b) If the battery pack and ambient temperature are
very cold/ hot, it may take longer to re-charge.
Please find an appropriate environment with
proper air temperature to start charging.
c) If the battery pack is very hot, remove battery
pack from the charger and allow battery pack
to cool first to ambient temperature and then
recharging can be started.
