• When you charge a new battery cartridge or a battery
cartridge which has not been used for a long period of
time, it may not accept a full charge. This is a normal
condition and does not indicate a problem. You can
recharge the battery cartridge fully after discharging it
completely and recharging a couple of times.
• When you charge a battery cartridge from a just-
operated tool or a battery cartridge which has been left
in a location exposed to direct sunlight or heat for a long
time, let it cool off. Then re-insert it and try to charge it
once more.
• When you charge a new battery cartridge or a battery
cartridge which has not been used for a long period,
sometimes the charging light will go out soon. If this
occurs, remove the battery cartridge and re-insert it. If
the charging light goes out within one minute even after
repeating this procedure a couple of times, the battery
cartridge is dead. Replace it with a new one.

• Plug the battery charger into the proper AC voltage
source. The charging light will flash in green color.
• Insert the battery cartridge so that the plus and minus
terminals on the battery cartridge are on the same sides
as their respective markings on the battery charger.
Insert the cartridge fully into the port so that it rests on
the charger port floor.
• When the battery cartridge is inserted, the charging light
color will change from green to red and charging will
begin. The charging light will remain lit steadily during
charging.
• When the charging light color changes from red to
green, the charging cycle is complete.
• If you leave the battery cartridge in the charger after the
charging cycle is complete, the charger will switch into
its “trickle charge (maintenance charge)” mode which
will last approximately 24 hours.
• After charging, unplug the charger from the power
source.
