Charging
Common Cautions for the Li
ion/NiMH/NiCd Battery Pack
NOTE:
• When charging a cool battery
pack (below 0°C (3°F)) in a warm
place, leave the battery pack at the
place and wait for more than one
hour to warm up the battery to the
level of the ambient temperature.
Otherwise battery pack may not be
fully charged.
• Cool down the charger when charging
more than two battery packs consecu-
tively.
• Do not insert your fingers into con-
tact hole, when holding charger or
any other occasions.
CAUTION:
To prevent the risk of fire or damage
to the battery charger.
• Do not use power source from an
engine generator.
• Do not cover vent holes on the
charger and the battery pack.
• Unplug the charger when not in
use.
Liion Battery Pack
NOTE:
Your battery pack is not fully charg-
ed at the time of purchase. Be sure
to charge the battery before use.
Battery charger (EY0L80)
1. Plug the charger into the AC outlet.
NOTE:
Sparks may be produced when the
plug is inserted into the AC power
supply, but this is not a problem in
terms of safety.
. Insert the battery pack firmly into the
charger.
1 Line up the alignment marks and
place the battery onto the dock on
the charger.
Slide forward in the direction of the
arrow.
3. During charging, the charging lamp will
be lit.
When charging is completed, an inter-
nal electronic switch will automatically
be triggered to prevent overcharging.
• Charging will not start if the battery
pack is warm (for example, immedi-
ately after heavy-duty operation).
The orange standby lamp will be
flashing until the battery cools down.
Charging will then begin automati-
cally.
4. The charge lamp (green) will flash
slowly once the battery is approxi-
mately 80% charged.
5. When charging is completed, the
charging lamp will start flashing quickly
in green color.
6. If the temperature of the batter pack is
0°C or less, charging takes longer to
fully charge the battery pack than the
standard charging time.
Even when the battery is fully charged,
it will have approximately 50% of the
power of a fully charged battery at nor-
mal operating temperature.
7. If the power lamp does not light imme-
diately after the charger is plugged in,
or if after the standard charging time the
charging lamp does not flash quickly in
green, consult an authorized dealer.
8. If a fully charged battery pack is
inserted into the charger again, the
charging lamp lights up. After sever-
al minutes, the charging lamp may
flash quickly to indicate the charging
is completed.
NiMH/NiCd Battery Pack
NOTE:
When you charge the battery pack
for the first time, or after prolonged
storage, charge it for about 4
hours to bring the battery up to full
capacity.
