PROBLEM SOLUTION

EN
I CANNOT FIT THE BATTERY INTO THE
BATTERY CHARGER. WHY?
a) Check if the charger and the battery pack are
specifically designed for working together.
b) The battery can be inserted into the charger only in
one direction. Turn the battery around until it can be
inserted into the slot, the indicator light should be
green and flash when the battery is charging.
REASONS FOR DIFFERENT CHARGING TIMES
The charging time can be affected by many reasons which
are not defects in your product.
a) If the battery pack is only partly discharged it may be
re-charged in less than rated charging time.
b) If the battery pack and ambient temperature are very
cold/ hot, it may take longer to re-charge. Please
find an appropriate environment with proper air
temperature to start charging.
c) If the battery pack is very hot, remove battery pack
from the charger and allow battery pack to cool first
to ambient temperature and then recharging can be
started.
