BATTERY PROTECTION FEATURES

Ryobi One+ 18 V lithium-ion batteries are designed with features that protect the lithium-ion cells and maximize battery life.

If the tool stops during use, release the trigger to reset and resume operation. If the tool still does not work, the battery needs to be recharged.

NOTE: The LED charge indicator light will not work if the battery protection feature has caused the battery pack to stop powering the tool. When the battery pack resets itself, the LED will again function.

CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK

NOTE: The P113 charger will also charge Ryobi One+ 18 V Ni-Cd battery packs.

Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge them until the green LED on the front of the charger comes on.

If the charger does not charge the battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger to your nearest Authorized Service Center for electrical

check.

TO CHARGE

Use battery pack only with the recommended charger.

Connect the charger to the power supply. Make sure the power supply is normal household voltage, 120 volts, AC only, 60 Hz.

Make sure the latches on each side of the battery pack snap into place and the battery pack is secured in the charger before beginning operation.

Place the battery pack in the charger aligning raised rib on the battery pack with the groove in the charger.

Press down on the battery pack to be sure contacts on the battery pack engage properly with contacts in the charger. See Figure 1.

Do not place the charger and battery pack in an area of extreme heat or cold. They will work best at normal room temperature.

Note: The charger and battery pack should be placed in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but less than 100°F.

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

After charging is complete, the green LED will remain on until the battery pack is removed from the charger or charger is disconnected from the power supply.

When batteries become fully charged, unplug the charger from the power supply and remove the battery pack.

To remove the battery pack from the charger, depress the latches on each side of the battery pack.

CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK

If the battery pack is above normal temperature range, the red LED will begin flashing and the green LED will be off. When the battery pack cools down to approximately 122°F, the charger will automatically begin fast charge mode.

CHARGING A COOL BATTERY PACK

If the battery pack is below normal temperature range, the red LED will begin flashing and the green LED will be off. When the battery warms to a temperature of more than 32°F, the charger will automatically begin charge mode.

COLD WEATHER OPERATION

The lithium-ion battery pack can be used in temperatures down to -4°F. Put the battery pack on a tool and use the tool in a light duty application. After about a minute, the pack will have warmed up and begin operating normally.

BATTERIES

These batteries have been designed to provide maximum trouble-free life. However, like all batteries, they will even- tually wear out. Do not disassemble battery pack and at- tempt to replace the batteries. Handling of these batteries, especially when wearing rings and jewelry, could result in a serious burn.

To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest the following:

Remove the battery pack from the charger once it is fully charged and ready for use.

For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:

Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 80°F and away from moisture.

Store battery packs in a 30%-50% charged condition.

Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.
