HOT/COLD BATTERY PACK DELAY
This charger has a HOT/COLD battery pack
delay feature. When the charger detects a
battery pack that is too hot or cold (the light
will be green and flash), it automatically
starts a HOT/COLD Pack Delay, and suspends
charging until the battery pack has reached the
correct temperature. The charging process will
then automatically begin (the light will be red).
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 trickle
current.
NOTE: A battery pack will slowly lose its
charge when kept out of the charger or left in
an unplugged charger for a long time. It may
need to be recharged before use.
WEAK BATTERY PACKS
This charger will detect a weak battery pack.
When a weak battery pack is inserted into the
charger, the charger will try to repair it. This
process will last about 30mins (the light will
be red). When the repair is finished, it will
automatically begin to charge the battery pack
to the highest capacity possible (the light is
red). If the light becomes flash, indicating 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.

IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES:

1) For a new battery or a battery that has
been in storage for sometime, please
recharge the battery before use. If you
want to store the battery for a long time,
please fully charge the battery pack to
ensure maximum battery life.
2) Longer life and better performance can
be obtained if the battery pack is charged
when the air temperature is between 18ºC
and 24ºC. Do not charge the battery pack
in air temperatures below 4.5ºC, or above
40.5ºC. This is important as it can prevent
serious damage to the battery pack.
3) Never freeze your charger or immerse
charger in water or any other liquid.
4) When the battery pack fails to produce
sufficient power on jobs that were
previously done easily, please recharge
you battery, do not continue to use under
this condition. You may charge a partially
used pack whenever you desire with no
adverse affect on the battery pack.
5) When charging it is normal that the
charger and battery pack may become
warm to touch.
6) If the battery pack does not charge
properly:
a. Check current at power outlet by plugging
in another appliance.
b. Plug and unplug to check whether the
charger is ok
c. Check whether the battery has been
damaged
d. Move the charger and battery pack to
a location where the surrounding air
temperature is approximately 18ºC -24ºC.
e. If the charging problem persists, take
the tool, battery pack and charger to an
authorized service center.
f. Under certain conditions, when the
charger is plugged into the power supply,
the exposed charging contacts inside
the charger can be shorted by foreign
material. Foreign materials of a conductive
nature such as metallic particles should be
kept away from charger cavities. Always
unplug the charger from the power supply
when there is no battery pack in the
charger or before attempting to clean.
