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.
LITHIUM-ION BATTERY PACKS ONLY
XR Li-Ion tools are designed with an Electronic
Protection System that will protect the battery
against overloading, overheating or deep discharge.
The tool will automatically turn off if the Electronic
Protection System engages. If this occurs, place
the lithium-ion battery on the charger until it is fully
charged.
