During charging, the charging lamp
will be lit.
When charging is completed, an in-
ternal electronic switch will auto-
matically be triggered to prevent
overcharging.
• Charging will not start if the battery
pack is warm (for example, imme-
diately after heavy-duty operation).
The orange standby lamp will be
flashing until the battery cools
down.
Charging will then begin automat-
ically.

slowly once the battery is approxi-
mately 80% charged.

ing lamp in green color will turn off.

will have approximately 50% of the
power of a fully charged battery at nor-
mal operating temperature.

charging lamp (green) does not turn
off.
