[Battery Charger]
Charging
CAUTION:
• The charger is designed to operate on
standard domestic electrical power only
as stated in the rating plate. Charge only
on the voltage indicated on the rating
plate of unit. e.g.230v / 50Hz.
• Do not attempt to use it on any other
voltage or frequency rating!
• If the temperature of the battery pack
falls approximately below −10°C (14°F),
charging will automatically stop to prevent
degradation of the battery.
• The ambient temperature range is
between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F).
If the battery pack is used when the battery
temperature is below 0°C (32°F), the tool
may fail to function properly.
• Use the charger at temperatures between
0°C and 40°C, and charge the battery at
a temperature similar to that of the battery
itself. (There should be no more than a
15°C difference between the temperatures
of the battery and the charging location.)
• 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.
• Cool down the charger when charging
more than two battery packs consecutively.
• Do not insert your fingers into contact
hole, when holding charger or any other
occasions.
CAUTION:
To prevent the risk of fire or damage to the
battery charger.
• Do not cover vent holes on the charger
and the battery pack.
• Unplug the charger when not in use.
NOTE:
Your battery pack is not fully charged at
the time of purchase. Be sure to charge
the battery before use.
How to charge
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. Connect the battery pack firmly into the charger.
1 Line up the alignment marks and place the
battery onto the dock on the charger.
2 Slide forward in the direction of the arrow.
3. During charging, the charging lamp will be lit.
When charging is completed, an internal
electronic switch will automatically be trig-
gered to prevent overcharging.
• Charging will not start if the battery
pack is warm (for example, immediately
after heavy-duty operation).
The orange standby lamp will be flash-
ing until the battery cools down.
Charging will then begin automatically.
4. The charge lamp (green) will flash slowly
once the battery is approximately 80%
charged.
5. When charging is completed, the charging
lamp in green color will turn off.
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 normal oper-
ating temperature.
7. Consult an authorized dealer if the charging
lamp (green) does not turn off.
8. If a fully charged battery pack is inserted
into the charger again, the charging lamp
lights up. After several minutes, the charg-
ing lamp in green color will turn off.
9. Remove the battery pack while the battery
pack release button is held up.
