Makita 6212DWG specifications Ward the Free side and turn the sleeve

0 If you charge a battery cartridge from a just-operated tool or a battery cartridge which has been left in a location exposed to direct sunlight or heat for a long time, the charg- ing light may flash in red color. If this occurs, wait for a while. Charging will begin after the battery cartridge cools. The battery cartridge will cool faster if you remove the battery cartridge from the fast charger.

0 If the charging light flashes alternately in green and red color and a tone sounds "beep, beep, beep, . . ." for about 20 seconds, a problem exists and charging is not possible. The terminals on the charger or battery cartridge are clogged with dust or the battery cartridge is worn out or damaged.

If you wish to charge two battery cartridges, allow 15 minutes between chargings on the fast charger.
