Charging a Hot or Cold Battery Pack
The charger has advanced electronics that adjust
the charge rate based on battery temperature. Hot
or cold batteries may take longer to charge. When
the battery pack temperature is outside the normal
charging range, the red light will flash and the battery
will not charge. Once the battery pack is within the
acceptable range, normal charging will take place
and the red light will be continuous. This optimizes
charge time and battery life.

MAINTENANCE
To reduce the risk of fire, personal
WARNING
injury, and product damage due to
a short circuit, never immerse a tool, battery pack
or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to flow inside
them. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such as
seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and
bleach or bleach containing products, etc., can
cause a short circuit.
Always unplug the charger and remove the
battery from the charger before performing any
maintenance. Never disassemble the battery or
charger. Contact a MILWAUKEE service facility
for ALL repairs.
Do not expose battery packs, chargers or tools to
fluids, water, or rain, or allow them to get wet. This
could damage the tool, charger, and/or battery pack.
Clean out dust and debris from tool, charger and bat-
tery vents and electrical contacts by vacuuming or
brushing. Clean housings with a damp, soapy cloth,
keeping away from all electrical contacts. Certain
cleaners and solvents, such as gasoline, turpentine,
lacquer thinner, paint thinner, bleach, chlorinated
cleaning solvents, ammonia and household deter-
gents containing ammonia, are harmful to plastics
and other insulated parts; plastic casings will become
brittle and crack. Never use flammable or combus-
tible solvents around batteries, charger, or tools.
As a general practice, it is best to unplug chargers
and remove battery packs when not in use, however,
no damage to the battery pack will occur. Store at
room temperature away from moisture. Store bat-
teries upright. Do not store in damp locations where
corrosion of terminals may occur. Storing in high
temperatures (over 120°F) for long periods can result
in permanent capacity loss for any battery. Charge
before use after storing for long periods.
No serviceable parts.
