If you continue charging the battery pack for about one more hour (until it is fully charged), the charge will last slightly longer.

Connect the battery charger to an easily accessible wall outlet (wall socket) close by.

Even if the CHARGE lamp is not lit, the battery charger is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet (wall socket). If some trouble occurs while using the battery charger, immediately shut off the power by disconnecting the plug from the wall outlet (wall socket).

When charging is finished, disconnect the power cord (mains lead) from the wall outlet (wall socket), and remove the battery pack from the battery charger.
