A battery is not fully charged when it ships from
the factory. STIHL recommends that you fully
charge the battery before using it the first time.
Operate the charger indoors in a dry room. For
optimum performance, observe the recommen‐
ded ambient temperature ranges,
The battery heats up during operation of the
blower. If a hot battery is inserted into the
charger, it may be necessary for it to cool down
before charging starts. The charging process
begins only after the battery has cooled down
sufficiently.
Charging time depends on a number of factors,
including battery condition and the ambient tem‐
perature. For a complete list of approximate
charging times, see www.stihl.com/charging-
times.
