To AC
outlet
4. During charging, the charging lamp
will be lit.
When charging is completed, an inter-
nal electronic switch will automatically
be triggered to prevent overcharging.
• Charging will not start if the battery
pack is warm (for example, immedi-
ately after heavy-duty operation).
The orange standby lamp will be
flashing until the battery cools down.
Charging will then begin automati-
cally.
5. The charge lamp (green) will flash
slowly once the battery is approxi-
mately 80% charged.
6. When charging is completed, the
charging lamp will start flashing quickly
in green color.
7. If the temperature of the battery pack
is 0°C or less, charging takes longer to
fully charge the battery pack than the
standard charging time. Even when
the battery is fully charged, it will have
approximately 50% of the power of a
fully charged battery at normal operat-
ing temperature.
8. If the power lamp does not light im-
mediately after the charger is plugged
in, or if after the standard charging
time the charging lamp does not flash
quickly in green, consult an authorized
dealer.
9. If a fully charged battery pack is in-
serted into the charger again, the
charging lamp lights up. After several
minutes, the charging lamp may flash
quickly to indicate the charging is
completed.

NOTE:
When you charge the battery pack
