OPERATION

nAfter normal usage, a minimum of 1 hour of charging time is required to fully recharge battery pack.

nThe battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.

nDo not place the charger and battery pack in an area of extreme heat or cold. They will work best at normal room temperature.

NOTE: The charger and battery pack should be placed in a location where the temperature is more than 50°F but less than 100°F.

nWhen batteries become fully charged, unplug the charger from power supply and remove the battery pack.

CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK

When using the worklight continuously, the batteries in the battery pack will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool down for approximately 30 minutes before at- tempting to recharge. When the battery pack becomes dis- charged and is hot, this will cause the green LED to come on instead of the red LED. After 30 minutes, reinsert the battery pack in the charger. If the green LED continues to remain on, return battery pack to your nearest Ryobi Authorized Service Center for checking or replacing.

NOTE: This situation only occurs when continuous use of the worklight causes the batteries to become hot. It does not occur under normal circumstances. Refer to “CHARG- ING A COOL BATTERY PACK” for normal recharging of batteries. If the charger does not charge your battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger to your nearest Ryobi Authorized Service Center for electrical check.
