4. Disconnect the charger's power cord from the
receptacle.
5. Hold the charger firmly and pull out the battery.
NOTE:
After operation, pull out batteries from the charger
first, and then keep the batteries properly.
Regarding electric discharge in case of new
batteries, etc.
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries
and batteries that have not been used for an extended
period is not activated, the electric discharge might
be low when using them the first and second time.
This is a temporary phenomenon, and normal time
required for recharging will be restored by recharging
the batteries 2 – 3 times.
How to make the batteries perform longer
(1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely
exhausted.
When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker,
stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If you continue
to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery
may be damaged and its life will become shorter.
(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use.
If such a battery is recharged immediately after use, its
internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery
life will be shortened. Leave the battery and recharge it
after it has cooled for a while.

(2) Regarding the temperature of the rechargeable battery
The temperatures for rechargeable batteries are as
shown in the Table 2, and batteries that have become
hot should be cooled for a while before being
recharged.
(3) Regarding recharging time
Table 3 shows the recharging time required according
to the type of battery.

CAUTION:
When the battery charger has been continuosly used, the
battery charger will be heated, thus constituting the cause
of the failures. Once the charging has been completed,
give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.
If the battery is recharged when it is warm due to battery
use or exposure to sunlight, the pilot lamp map light in
green.
The battery will not be recharged. In such a case, let the
battery cool before charging.
When the pilot lamp flickers in red (at 0.2-second intervals),
check for and take out any foreign objects in the charger's
battery installation hole. If there are no foreign objects, it is
probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning.
Take it to your authorized Service Center.
