Blinking orange light: a fault condition exists. There are several potential causes. See “Troubleshooting”in this manual.

Steady orange light: the battery pack temperature is beyond the acceptable range (0°C/32°F to 40°C/104°F). Allow the battery pack to reach the acceptable temperature range before charging. The pack may be left on the charger as the temperature adjusts. Charging will begin when the proper temperature is reached.
