Charging

Common Cautions for the Li- ion/Ni-MH/Ni-Cd Battery Pack

NOTE:

When charging a cool battery pack (below 0°C (32°F)) in a warm place, leave the battery pack at the place and wait for more than one hour to warm up the battery to the level of the ambient temperature. Otherwise battery pack may not be fully charged.

Cool down the charger when charging more than two battery packs consecu- tively.

Do not insert your fingers into con- tact hole, when holding charger or any other occasions.

CAUTION:

To prevent the risk of fire or damage to the battery charger.

Do not use power source from an engine generator.

Do not cover vent holes on the charger and the battery pack.

Unplug the charger when not in use.

Li-ion Battery Pack

NOTE:

Your battery pack is not fully charg­ ed at the time of purchase. Be sure to charge the battery before use.

1.Plug the charger into the AC outlet.

NOTE:

Sparks may be produced when the plug is inserted into the AC power supply, but this is not a problem in terms of safety.

2.Insert the battery pack firmly into the charger.

1Line up the alignment marks and place the battery onto the dock on the charger.

2Slide forward in the direction of the arrow.

3.During charging, the charging lamp will be lit.

When charging is completed, an inter- nal electronic switch will automatically be triggered to prevent overcharging.

Charging will not start if the battery pack is warm (for example, immedi- ately after heavy-duty operation).

The orange standby lamp will be flashing until the battery cools down. Charging will then begin automati- cally.

4.The charge lamp (green) will flash slowly once the battery is approxi- mately 80% charged.

5.When charging is completed, the charging lamp will start flashing quickly in green color.

6.If the temperature of the batter pack is 0°C or less, charging takes longer to fully charge the battery pack than the standard charging time.

Even when the battery is fully charged, it will have approximately 50% of the power of a fully charged battery at nor- mal operating temperature.

7.If the power lamp does not light imme- diately after the charger is plugged in, or if after the standard charging time the charging lamp does not flash quickly in green, consult an authorized dealer.

8.If a fully charged battery pack is inserted into the charger again, the charging lamp lights up. After sever- al minutes, the charging lamp may flash quickly to indicate the charging is completed.

Ni-MH/Ni-Cd Battery Pack

NOTE:

When you charge the battery pack for the first time, or after prolonged storage, charge it for about 24 hours to bring the battery up to full capacity.
