Charging Battery
The battery in your new cordless power tool will not be fully charged when you receive it. Storage capacity of the battery will be maximized once it is discharged, then fully recharged
For optimal life span, use the battery until it can no operate the drill before charg- ing. Charging the battery before it is fully drained can reduce battery performance. Follow the instructions below to charge your battery.
Note: When charging both batteries, wait 15 minutes for the charger to cool between charging batteries.
To charge a battery:
1.Plug the charger into a 110V outlet.
2.Insert the battery into the charger. The battery fits into the oval recess in only one way. Do not force the battery. Insert until it locks into place.
Note: Allow the battery to cool down before charging. After charging is com- pleted, allow the battery to cool down before installing it in the drill.
3.The red light will come on (Models H7792/3 will blink slowly) when the battery is charging. Charge the bat- tery for 1 hour or until the charging light turns green (Models H7794/5) or blinks rapidly (Models H7792/3). After several hours the light will turn off and the unit will stop charging.
Note: It is normal for the battery and charger to become warm during charg- ing.
4.Remove the battery when fully charged and unplug the charger.
Never leave a battery unattended while charging to prevent a chance of fire. Disconnect the charger immediately if the battery or char- ger becomes too hot to touch, then have the battery and charger checked by a qualified electrical service technician.
