longest battery life, do not discharge

 

batteries fully. It is recommended that the

 

batteries be recharged after each use.

uncharged condition. Before attempting to

use it, it must be charged for at least 12

 

hours.

 

2.CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the batteries, NEVER charge them in an

air temperature below 40°F (4,5°C) or above 105°F (40,5°C). Also, NEVER charge them if the battery temperature is below 40°F (4,5°C) or above 105°F (40,5°C). Longest life and best performance occurs when batteries are charged with an air temperature of approximately 75°F (24°C).

3.While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to touch. This is a normal condition and does not indicate a problem.

4.If the batteries do not charge properly—(1) Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance.
