Charging Procedure (Fig. 1)
DANGER: Electrocution hazard. 120 volts are present at charging
terminals. Do not probe with conductive objects. Electric shock or
electrocution may result.
1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet before inserting battery
pack.
2. Insert the battery pack (O) into the charger, as shown in Figure 1,
making sure the pack is fully seated in charger. The red (charging)
light will blink continuously indicating that the charging process
has started.
3. The completion of charge will be indicated by the red light
remaining ON continuously. The pack is fully charged and may be
used at this time or left in the charger.
Indicator Light Operation
Charge Indicators
Some chargers are designed to detect certain problems that can arise
with battery packs. Problems are indicated by the red light flashing
at a fast rate. If this occurs, re-insert battery pack into the charger. If
the problem persists, try a different battery pack to determine if the
charger is OK. If the new pack charges correctly, then the original
pack is defective and should be returned to a service center or
other collection site for recycling. If the new battery pack elicits the
same trouble indication as the original, have the charger tested at an
authorized service center.
HOT/COLD PACK DELAY
Some chargers have a Hot/Cold Pack Delay feature: when the charger
detects a battery that is hot, it automatically starts a Hot Pack Delay,
suspending charging until the battery has cooled. After the battery
has cooled, the charger automatically switches to the Pack Charging
mode. This feature ensures maximum battery life. The red light flashes
long, then short while in the Hot Pack Delay mode.
PROBLEM POWER LINE
Some chargers have a Problem Power Line indicator. When the
charger is used with some portable power sources such as generators
or sources that convert DC to AC, the charger may temporarily
suspend operation, flashing the red light with two fast blinks
followed by a pause. This indicates the power source is out of limits.
LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE CHARGER
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the red light
glowing indefinitely. The charger will keep the battery pack fresh and
fully charged.
NOTE: A battery pack will slowly lose its charge when kept out of
the charger. If the battery pack has not been kept on maintenance
