OPERATION

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Your radio charger must be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only (normal household current). Do not operate this radio charger on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power. If the radio charger does not operate when plugged into an outlet, check the radio charger, and then double check the power supply.

TO OPERATE RADIO

See Figure 3.

Connect adapter to power supply. Note: Radio does not operate on power from your drill's battery pack.

Set the AM/FM Band Knob to AM or FM position.

Turn radio ON by turning the ON/OFF Knob in a clockwise direction. Note: You will hear a soft click when radio comes ON.

Extend the antenna if radio is selected to listen to FM. If reception is poor, fully extend antenna and rotate in all directions until reception improves.

Adjust the volume up and down by turning the Volume Control Knob.

Set radio to the desired station by turning the Tuning Knob.

Turn radio OFF by turning the ON/OFF Knob in a counterclockwise direction. Note: You will hear a soft click when radio turns OFF.

CHARGING BATTERY PACK

See Figure 4.

The battery pack for your drill-driver has been shipped in a low charge condition to prevent possible problems. There- fore, you should charge it overnight prior to use.

Note: Batteries will not reach full charge the first time they are charged. Allow several cycles (drilling followed by re- charging batteries) for them to fully charge.

TO CHARGE BATTERY PACK

Charge the battery pack for your drill-driver only with the radio charger provided.

Make sure power supply is normal household volt- age, 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only.

Connect adapter to power supply.

Place battery pack in charger. See Figure 4. Align raised rib on battery pack with groove in charger.

Push in on battery pack to be sure contacts on battery pack engage properly with contacts in charger. When properly connected, red light on charger will turn on and remain on until disconnected from power supply.

After normal usage, 3 hours or less of charging time is required to fully recharge battery pack. Note: If battery pack is completely discharged, 6 hours or longer of charging time is required to fully recharge battery pack.

The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.
