3. Charging is complete when the green charging light(s)
remain(s) continuously ON. Battery pack can be left in
charger or removed.
WARNING: Only charge batteries in air temperature over
40 ° F (4.5 ° C) and below 104 ° F (40 ° C).
4. Charger will not charge a faulty battery pack, which may
be indicated by the charging light(s) staying OFF. Take
charger and battery pack to an authorized service center
if light(s) stay(s) OFF.
nOTE: Refer to label near charging light(s) on charger for
blink patterns.
nOTE: To remove the battery pack, some chargers
require the battery pack release button
be pressed.
hot/Cold Pack Delay
When the charger detects a battery pack that is too hot
or too cold, it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay,
suspending charging until the battery pack has reached an
appropriate temperature. The charger then automatically
switches to the pack charging mode. This feature ensures
maximum battery pack life.
A cold battery pack may charge at a slower rate than a warm
battery pack.
The hot/cold pack delay will be indicated by the green
light(s) continuing to blink but with the red light
continuously ON. Once the battery pack has reached an
appropriate temperature, the red light will turn OFF and the
charger will resume the charging procedure.
Electronic Protection System
Li‑ion tools are designed with an Electronic Protection
System that will protect the battery pack against overloading,
overheating or deep discharge. The tool will automatically
turn off and the battery pack will need to be recharged.
Important Charging Notes
1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if
the battery pack is charged when the air temperature is
between 65 ° F – 75 ° F (18 ° C– 24 ° C). DO NOT charge
when the battery pack is below 40 ° F (4.5 ° C), or above
104 ° F (40 ° C). This is important and will prevent serious
damage to the battery pack.
2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to the
touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and
does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of
the battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or
battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal
shed or an uninsulated trailer.
3. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check operation of receptacle by plugging in a lamp
or other appliance;
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light
switch which turns power off when you turn out
the lights;
c. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery
pack and charger to your local service center.
4. You may charge a partially used pack whenever you
desire with no adverse effect on the battery pack.
