A self test is performed after the charger is con‐
nected to the power supply. During this process,
the light emitting diode (1) on the charger lights
up green for about 1 second, then red and goes
off again.

11 Charging the Battery

A factory-new battery is not fully charged.
It is advisable to charge the battery completely
before using it for the first time.
► Connect the charger to the power supply –
mains voltage of the power supply and operat‐
ing voltage of the charger must match – see
"Connecting the charger to the power supply".
Operate the charger only in a closed, dry space
at ambient temperatures of +5 °C to +40 °C
(41° F to 104° F).
Only charge dry batteries. Allow a damp battery
to dry before charging.

► Push the battery (1) into the charger (2) until
noticeable resistance is felt – then push it as
far as the limit stop.
The LED (3) on the charger comes on when the
battery is inserted – see "LED on Charger".
Charging begins as soon as the LEDs (4) on the
battery glow green – see "LEDs on Battery".
The charge time is dependent on a number of
factors, including battery condition, ambient tem‐
perature, etc., and may therefore vary from the
times specified.
The battery heats up during operation in the
power tool. If a hot battery is inserted in the
charger, it may be necessary to cool it down
before charging. The charging process begins
only after the battery has cooled down. The
charging time can be extended by the cooling off
period.
The battery and charger heat up during the
charging process.

The AL 301 and AL 500 chargers are equipped
with a battery cooling fan.
11.2
The AL 100 charger has no fan and waits for the
battery to cool down before starting the charging
process. The battery is cooled by heat transfer to
the ambient air.
