NOTE:
• The battery charger is for charging Makita-battery car-
tridge. Never use it for other purposes or for other man-
ufacturer's batteries.
• 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.
• If you charge a battery cartridge from a just-operated
tool or battery cartridge which has been left in a loca-
tion exposed to direct sunlight for a long time, the
charging light may flash in red color. If this occurs, wait
for a while. Charging will begin after the battery car-
tridge is cooled by the cooling fan installed in the
charger. When the temperature on battery is more than
approx. 70°C, two charging lights may flash in red
color, and when approx. 50°C – 70°C, one charging
light in red color.
• If the charging light flashes alternately in green and red
color, charging is not possible. The terminals on the
charger or battery cartridge are clogged with dust or
the battery cartridge is worn out or damaged.
