When only the lowermost indicator lamp (next to the
•
"E") blinks, or when none of the indicator lamps light,
the battery capacity has run out, so the tool does
not operate. In these cases, charge the battery or
replace the empty battery with a fully charged one.
When two or more indicator lamps do not light

even after charging is complete, the battery has
reached the end of its service life.
When the upper two and lower two indicator lamps

from a ladder, is extremely dangerous. Do not
work from anything wobbly or infirm.
