BATTERy CHARGED CONDITION INDICATOR (SB18B BATTERy)

Your battery pack is equipped with charge condition indicator lights (Fig. 16). The indicator lights shows the charge condition of the battery during operation.

To check battery charge condition, depress and hold the button on the backside of the battery pack.

• • • • When all five lights are illuminated, this indicates the batter pack is fully charged.

• • When only three lights illuminate, this indicates the battery pack is partially charged.

When only one light illuminates, this indicates the battery pack is slightly charged.

When no lights illuminate, this indicates the battery pack is completely discharged.

CHARGING BATTERy PACK (SC118 OR SC118B CHARGER)

Plug charger cord into your standard power outlet, then slide the battery pack into charger (Fig. 16).

The charger’s green indicator will begin to “BLINK”. This indicates that the battery is receiving a fast charge. Fast-charging will automatically stop when the battery pack is fully charged.

When the indicator light stops “BLINKING” (and becomes a steady green light) fast charging is complete.

When you begin the charging process of the battery pack, a steady green light could also mean the battery pack is too hot or too cold.

The purpose of the light is to indicate that the battery pack is fast-charging. It does not indicate the exact point of full charge. The light will stop blinking in less time if the battery pack was not completely discharged.

When the battery pack is fully charged, unplug the charger (unless you're charging another battery pack) and slip the battery pack back into the tool handle.
