Plug charger cord into your standard power
outlet. Before inserting battery pack, remove
protective cap, then insert battery pack into
charger (Fig. 10).
The charger’s green indicator light will begin to
“BLINK”. This indicates that the battery is
receiving a fast charge. Fast-charging will
automatically stop when the battery pack is
fully charged.
When the indicator light stops “BLINKING”
(and becomes a steady green light) fast
charging is complete.
The battery pack may be used even though
the light may still be blinking. The light may
require more time to stop blinking depending
on temperature. When you begin the charging
process of the battery pack, a steady red light
could also mean the battery pack is too hot or
too cold.
The purpose of the green light is to indicate
that the battery pack is fast-charging. It does
not indicate the exact point of full charge. The
light will stop blinking in less time if the battery
pack was not completely discharged.
When charging several batteries in sequence,
the charge time may slightly increase.
When the battery pack is fully charged,
unplug the charger (unless you're charging
another battery pack) and slip the battery
pack back into the tool.
To prevent fire or injury when batteries are
