Charging

Press the start button (red). The charging light will come on and charging will begin. If the charging light does not come on, press the reset button (yellow) first, then the start button (red). If the charging light

goes out within 10 seconds even after pressing the reset button and start button a couple of times, the battery cartridge is dead. (CAUTION: Wait for more than 5 seconds after the charging light goes out to press the reset button again.) Replace it with a new one. When the charging light goes out after about one hour, you may remove the fully charged battery cartridge.

After charging, unplug the charger from the power source.

0 Your new battery cartridge is not charged. You will need to charge it before use.

0 Do not keep the button pressed in with tape, etc. or the circuit will not function pro- perly. Also, a malfunction of the charger may result possibly causing overheating, etc.

0 If you try to charge a cartridge from a just-operated tool, sometimes the charging light will not come on. If this occurs, let the cartridge cool off for a while. Then re-insert it and try to charge it once more.
